Summary, Etc.  

요약Border Productions of Loss develops an analytical framework for understanding the sensorial hierarchies shaped by the US-Mexico border, emphasizing the environmental, political, and social manifestations of loss. This dissertation traces the historical and material development of the Paso del Norte, exploring queer borderland performances that register and challenge overlapping histories of desperation, grief, and exhaustion. Positioning my work along the routes of Performance Studies, Border Studies, and "new" materialism, I locate aesthetic encounters between human and ecological bodies who are both subjected to forms of loss in the creation and maintenance of the border across the Paso del Norte. In doing so, I identify sensorial solidarities and intersubjective coalitions that develop alternative ways of moving through and toward loss.The first chapter investigates the 1964 channelization of the Rio Grande/Rio Bravo as a metaphor for the bureaucratic management of migrant death and environmental decline. The second chapter analyzes the 1965 rise of maquiladoras and the industrialization of Ciudad Juarez, linking these developments to a border sensorium that naturalizes disposability and grief. The final chapter focuses on the lingering toxic residues from industrial pollution, theorizing exhaustion as both a physical and performative state that generates new possibilities for solidarity and collective action. Ultimately, this dissertation approaches border(land) performances that illuminate and expand the capacities of bodies to navigate loss and vulnerability in the borderlands.
