Alexis Silver has written a terrific book. This extraordinary study provides a fresh perspective on immigrant incorporation and the importance of place during political instability. Rich in detail, persuasively argued, and novel in its approach, this timely and relevant book shines an important light on the resilience of young immigrants in the face of unsettling and changing times. -- Roberto G. Gonzales * author of <i>Lives in Limbo: Undocumented and Coming of Age in America</i> * Shifting Boundaries provides a compelling argument for understanding the plight of undocumented youths as they inch their way toward-and take alternative routes to-integration when the path seems impassable...Most of all, this book offers a profound analysis that shows the humanity of undocumented immigrants within an increasingly hostile national context. --Nilda Flores-Gonzalez, American Journal of Sociology Thoroughly researched and elegantly written, Shifting Boundaries tells the poignant story of undocumented Latino immigrants coming of age in small-town America. Alexis Silver's narrative, both timeless and timely, is a must-read for anyone interested in America's tortuous immigration debates and the challenges they present for immigrant youth. -- Jacqueline Hagan * The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill *
