"Rosaura Sánchez and Beatrice Pita examine the spatial and discursive violence in the Southwest as enacted during the Spanish, Mexican and U.S. colonial periods. The volume begins by examining the establishment of enclosures or acts of land dispossession in the Southwest and foregrounds important historical, generational, ideological and textual differences and linkages while addressing multiple domains, regions and authors. Spatial and Discursive Violence in the U.S. Southwest provides a new perspective on colonialist debates within Chicano/a Movements and underscores the varying responses of the disenfranchised to dispossession, conquest and colonization across time, stressing what has been omitted, forgotten, or erased in literature and history"--
