Abstract:

Why is it that U.S. citizens at the border between Mexico and the U.S. show a distinctive set of foreign policy orientations? In fact, why is it that residents of this border show a distinct lack of interest in international affairs and organizations? A representative survey of El Paso, TX residents tests the following counterintuitive hypotheses: (1) reliance on major English language broadcast news networks as opposed to non-English news or non-broadcast news increases the likelihood that residents have a strong local identity; (2) that those who make border crossing a daily part of their lives are more likely to have a strong local identity; (3) the respondent’s national identity and local identity are unrelated to how strongly cooperative internationalist the respondent will be; and (4) that support for militant internationalism is negatively related to affinity towards Mexicans among border residents.
