Johnson's, <em>Mexico in Space: From La Raza Cósmica to The Space Race</em>, released in 2026, is an extensive ethnographic study of Mexico's history with outer space. Relying on two main frameworks and Canguilhem's concept of milieux it produces an interpretation of Mexico’s relationship to space which emphasizes a story of globalization and “planetization”. The Mexican space milieux invokes a multidimensional, situated understanding of outer space with blurred and shifting boundaries.</p> 2026-03-10T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Savannah Mandel https://www.journal.anthrobookforum.americananthro.org/index.php/abf/article/view/889 Pain into Purpose: Mobilizing Emotions in Argentina's Black Resistance Movement, Review 2026-03-13T15:36:07+00:00 Reed Margolis rm66557@eid.utexas.edu <p>This article is a review of Prisca Gayles' <em>Pain into Purpose: Mobilizing Emotions in Argentina's Black Resistance Movement</em> (2024).</p> 2026-04-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Reed Margolis https://www.journal.anthrobookforum.americananthro.org/index.php/abf/article/view/893 review 2026-03-30T01:16:58+00:00 Melanie Langgle ml57553@my.utexas.edu <p>review</p> 2026-03-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Melanie Langgle https://www.journal.anthrobookforum.americananthro.org/index.php/abf/article/view/895 UnderBelly Review 2026-04-13T07:48:27+00:00 Levi Vonk bdf8wg@virginia.edu <p>Underbelly review</p> 2026-04-13T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Levi Vonk https://www.journal.anthrobookforum.americananthro.org/index.php/abf/article/view/897 crossing the lines 2026-04-22T00:20:51+00:00 faith vanvleet faithvan@utexas.edu <p>crossing the lines</p> 2026-04-22T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 faith vanvleet
