| 英文摘要 | Accounts of the feminicide in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico tend to emphasize the youth and vulnerability of the victims. Often, however, as these representations focus on the relationship between the border, capitalism and gendered labor, they also perpetuate portrayals of the victims as subaltern, innocent girls, and fail to examine the relationship between class and citizenship, or the border between girlhood and womanhood. Through reading Alicia Gaspar de Alba's (2005) Desert Blood, Stella Pope Duarte's (2008) If I Die in Juarez and Amalia Ortiz's (2006) "Women of Juarez" in conversation with scholarship and media accounts of the murders, I trouble the classed border between girlhood and womanhood that much discourse about the Juarez murders straddles without interrogating. By also drawing on scholarly discussions and popular print accounts (that is from Texas Monthly and Ms.), I argue that depictions of the victims demonstrate an anxiety about the borders of girlhood as US assumptions about girls depend upon a middle-class security to which the girls in Juarez do not have access. |
