Summary:

"Extends theories of new materialism to argue that capitalist systems of neoliberalism and free trade are correlated to the killing of women in Cuidad Juárez. Offers a rhetorical analysis of maquiladoras, free trade zones; public memorials; searches for victims' remains; and family testimony to reveal the socioeconomic and geopolitical forces at work in the Juárez femicides"-- Provided by publisher.
