It presents a fresh perspective on immigration, nationalism, and racism through the experiences of Chinese migrants in the region during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Navigating the interlocking global and local systems of migration that underlay Chinese borderlands communities, the author situates the often-paradoxical existence of these communities within the turbulence of exclusionary nationalisms. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe world of Chinese \u003ci\u003efronterizos\u003c\/i\u003e (borderlanders) was shaped by the convergence of trans-Pacific networks and local arrangements, against a backdrop of national unrest in Mexico and in the era of exclusionary immigration policies in the United States, Chinese \u003ci\u003efronterizos\u003c\/i\u003e carved out vibrant, enduring communities that provided a buffer against virulent Sinophobia.
