Welcome message:

Greetings to all the current members of the Association for Borderlands Studies (ABS) and also to interested friends that have yet to join or renew their membership. As our website materials will explain in more detail, the ABS is dedicated to the study of border regions in our constantly changing world. We are proud to provide a welcome venue for sharing such research through our annual meetings we hold with the Western Social Science Association, the Journal of Borderlands Studies, and the fellowship that we provide to those interested in contemporary border issues. We invite you to explore our website and journal, join the ABS through our secure Internet registration page, and enjoy our truly international association.

Best Regards,

Manuel Chavez , President
Association for Borderlands Studies
