  Examines a region of Mexico whose citizens have been migrating to the United States for more than a century. This book states that emigrant citizenship does not signal the decline of the nation-state but does lead to a form of citizenship, and that bureaucratic efforts to manage emigration are based on the membership model of the Catholic Church.
