Abstract

This article examines the social and cultural relations that take place in surfing communities on the Mexican side of the border with the United States. Through ethnographic work with surfers from Northern Baja California, we identified different cross-border processes encouraged by this lifestyle sport: the formation of binational surfing communities, commodity circulation, localism, territorial disputes, and shared environmental problems. We point out that surfing on the border creates a system of affinities and rivalries based on the identity and nationalism, marked by the inequality and asymmetry between these two countries. This article also addresses the transnational cooperation and political actions undertaken to protect the oceans and beaches enjoyed by surfers in this border region.
在墨西哥和美国边境乘风破浪:海滩,当地冲浪者和跨境流程
这篇文章探讨了发生在与美国接壤的墨西哥一侧冲浪社区的社会和文化关系。通过对北下加利福尼亚州冲浪者的民族志研究,我们确定了这种生活方式运动所鼓励的不同跨境过程:两国冲浪社区的形成、商品流通、地方主义、领土争端和共同的环境问题。我们指出,在边界上冲浪创造了一种基于身份和民族主义的亲和力和竞争体系,其标志是这两个国家之间的不平等和不对称。这条还涉及为保护这一边境地区冲浪者所享有的海洋和海滩而进行的跨国合作和政治行动。
