Cross Americas: Probing Disglobal Networks

Infrastructure of Dust Managing Particulate in the Borderland

International Proceedings

Author(s): Ersela Kripa & Stephen Mueller

Airborne particulate in the US/Mexico border region indexes an emerging transnational security concern, enabling the proliferation of novel managerial infrastructures. Through an investigation of the weaponized atmospheres and securocratic frontiers of cross-border dust, the paper uncovers an invisible agent with the capacity to reshape bodies, buildings, cities, and territories in its image.
