Book’s subtitled: “ An Ethnography of a Salvadoran Street Gang.” A clean copy of this scholarly work on modern immigration and criminal street gangs from El Salvador that I originally bought from another seller. I didn’t cause the interior issues but otherwise book is in nice readable condition. From the book’s rear cover notes: “ Based on author T.W. Ward’s eight and a half years in Los Angeles conducting participant observation with MS-13, GANGSTERS WITHOUT BORDERS: AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF A SALVADORAN STREET GANG takes an inside look at gang life in the United States and in a global context. Taking us through their journey from their homeland in El Salvador to the mean streets of Los Angeles, GANGSTERS WITHOUT BORDERS offers a perspective from the point of view of the hard-core members who live this hard, fast, and dangerous life. A powerful and engaging overview of gang dynamics, GANGSTERS WITHOUT BORDERS contextualizes the sources and severity of the marginalization felt by Salvadoran immigrants and debunks myths about street gangs in the United States. This account of gangsters’ lives, before, during, and after their involvement with the gang, delivers an intimate and analytical portrait unlike any other.” Book’s been stored in a smoke free home with two short haired pets.
