1905231541905. Texas HistoryBorderlands U.S.-Mexico borderlands photograph album 1905-1906 centered on El Paso and Juárez with additional views in New Mexico Arizona California Oregon and Alaska. The album documents an early twentieth-century traveler's movement through the southern border of the U.S. when El Paso and Ciudad Juárez were being promoted through rail travel tourism and cross-border entertainment and when American visitors regularly treated Mexican religious sites plazas bullrings and street life as part of a border excursion circuit. Its strongest historical value lies in the concentration of images tied to the Texas-Mexico border including Juárez bullfight and cockfight scenes street and church views and domestic group portraits in El Paso alongside a labeled photograph of a Santo Domingo Pueblo corn dance likely Kewa Pueblo north of Albuquerque showing non-Native travelers recording Indigenous life in the Southwest.<br /> <br /> Photograph album containing 81 original photographs most measuring approximately 2 x 3 to 4 x 5 inches mounted on thick black paper leaves in a cloth-bound album. Contemporary manuscript captions identify numerous locations and subjects including "El Paso Tex" "Juarez Mex" "Bull Fight" "Cock Fight" "Near Albuquerque 1906" "1906 New Mexico" "New Mexico 1905" "Juarez Mex Church over 350 years old" and "Corn Dance. Santo Domingo." Visible subjects include family and social group portraits posed on porches and in front of residences; women in white dresses and men in coats hats and ties; a tree-lined park path in El Paso; religious architecture and church interiors in Juárez; a fountain identified as Robinson Park in Albuquerque; river and landscape views labeled Rio Grande; a saguaro cactus study; a donkey; a seated elderly woman in a doorway; and multiple arena photographs showing matadors horses attendants spectators and ring action in Juárez. Several photographs bear later ink inscriptions including one later image of five men captioned "Alaska" en recto and with names on verso including "Mayor Goldstein" a prominent Jewish businessman and six time Juneau Mayor Isadore Goldstein.<br /> <br /> The album records border travel encompassing scenes of domestic life in El Paso tourism in Juárez and excursions into New Mexico and the wider West. The Juárez images are especially strong preserving direct vernacular views of public spectacle in the bullring and cockfight pit as well as church architecture and urban settings seen from the perspective of a visiting American observer. Photographs mounted throughout; some images faded or silvered with scattered surface wear corner wear occasional discoloration and a few later annotations or tape remnants visible. Overall very good condition. unknown

African American Latino History Criminal Justice Photography Unidentified press photographers War on Drugs photographs 1974 to 1992 document law enforcement operations arrests and media coverage of drug enforcement in Texas during the expansion of federal and local anti narcotics campaigns. Produced for newspaper circulation by the Houston Chronicle and the Associated Press the images provide direct evidence of policing practices surveillance and public presentation of drug enforcement activities across multiple decades. The archive supports research into racial disparities in policing the growth of coordinated federal and local enforcement systems and the role of press photography in shaping public understanding of crime and punishment during the late twentieth century.<br /> <br /> Texas primarily Houston and El Paso 1974 to 1992. Archive of 9 original silver gelatin press photographs with printed and typed captions on versos. Images include a 1974 photograph of Drug Enforcement Administration agents seizing a large marijuana cache from a tugboat; a 1975 Associated Press image displaying cocaine and heroin paraphernalia accompanied by a caption describing drug use in social settings; a 1979 photograph of the El Paso Intelligence Center identified as the control center of federal drug enforcement operations; and multiple photographs from the 1980s and early 1990s depicting arrests raids and evidence seizures. One image labeled "Operation Crackdown" shows a group of detainees with hands restrained behind their backs gathered at a temporary booking site surrounded by officers and paperwork processing tables. Another photograph captures an undercover officer restraining a young Black man outside an apartment complex during an arrest. A photograph dated April 27 1992 shows officers recovering firearms and suspected narcotics from a vehicle in a dealership parking lot accompanied by an assignment sheet describing a police chase and subsequent arrest. Additional images include a 1990 multi agency raid involving federal and local authorities using a trained detection dog identified as "Magnum" with annotations indicating restrictions on identifying agents.<br /> <br /> The archive situates drug enforcement within the broader expansion of the War on Drugs a policy framework that intensified policing surveillance and incarceration beginning in the 1970s and continuing through the end of the twentieth century. These photographs document the coordination between agencies such as the Drug Enforcement Administration U.S. Customs and the Federal Bureau of Investigation as well as the increasing visibility of enforcement through media distribution. The repeated depiction of arrests and controlled displays of seized materials underscores the public facing dimension of these operations while the imagery of detainees and targeted enforcement reflects documented disparities in how drug laws were applied across racial and socioeconomic groups. Light handling wear with minor surface marks typical of press photographs; captions remain legible. Overall very good condition. A concentrated visual record of law enforcement practice media representation and the social impact of drug policy in late twentieth century Texas. unknown

ill., ril. Esistono 323 frontiere terrestri su circa 250.000 km. Aggiungendo le frontiere marittime, delimitate o meno, si arriva a un totale di circa 750 frontiere tra Stati. Alcune si attraversano facilmente, altre sono invalicabili, alcune sono visibili, altre invisibili (aeree, astronomiche). Ma esistono anche frontiere immaginarie o arbitrarie: politiche, economiche, culturali (lingua, religione, civiltà) che quasi mai coincidono con le frontiere internazionali. Quali sono le frontiere esterne dell'Europa: quelle dello spazio Schengen, quelle dell'Unione Europea o quelle dell'Europa in quanto idea o concetto? Le tre non si sovrappongono. Si possono tracciare linee di separazione tra grandi aree culturali? Dove comincia l'Asia? Qual è la frontiera più militarizzata? Qual è il muro di difesa più lungo? E il reticolato più alto? Come si determinano le frontiere aeree? Ci sono ancora "zone bianche", le terrae nullius che non appartengono a nessuno? Il cambiamento climatico può modificare certe frontiere esistenti? Le frontiere favoriscono la pace o sono foriere di guerre? Questo Atlante dedicato alle frontiere ci aiuta a capire le sfide che si nascondono dietro queste linee che dividono o uniscono i popoli. Con più di 40 cartine e infografiche originali, gli autori raccontano il mondo attraverso il prisma delle frontiere.
