Founded in 2012 by a team of doctoral students at the University of Texas at El Paso, Borderlands History is a collective blog dedicated to exploring the legal, social, and cultural history of borderland regions. In the United States, the term "borderlands" usually connotes the area along the U.S.-Mexico border, and most contributions to Borderland History address this region. However, this blog is intentionally inclusive of all borderlands. Blog posts are frequently updated and range from interviews with borderlands historians to book reviews, links to magazine articles, and job postings. Recent posts include a discussion by Michael K. Bess, Assistant Professor of History at the Centro de Investigacion y Docencia Economicas, a closer look at historical maps of Texas, and a Question-and-Answer session with Carleton University (Ottawa) professor Michael Hogue about the history of Metis individuals who lived on the border of modern-day Canada and the United States.
