INTRODUCTION : VALUE MANIPULATION The necessity of the fence is sold in terms of defense, its militarization in the name of national security. But as architecture its fails at this function. It is permeable, its holes are numerous and dynamic. Its impenetrability is preached as intrinsic to the safety of the United Statesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; population, but its construction is determined by the economic whims of politicians and corporations. In reality its true purpose is as an economic mechanism, its subsequent emphasis on security is a result of this purpose. It marks a delineation between two sovereigns in which the same commodity, person or contraband, has a differing value depending upon which side of the wall it is placed, it is an architecture of value manipulation. It is a manifestation of international economics in which the flow of goods and money is accommodated but the flow of people is restricted. As a result a lower wage labor market, Mexico, becomes available to American corporations, initially for low-skill manufacturing as seen in the border industrialization program of the 1960s, but evolving into something more complex over time with the passing of NAFTA and the subsequent War on Terror.

PART I: BORDER ECONOMICS SECTION A: MAQUILADORAS

The United States and Mexico have used the wallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic manipulation to import and export certain sectors of one anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy. Particularly the United States has exported a substantial amount of its manufacturing processes south of the border supporting the maquiladora industry, which assembles materials (temporary imports) for subsequent distribution in the United States. Initial industries exported included low-tech and low-skill sectors from textiles to household electronics. Yet over time the complexity of these exported manufacturing processes evolved, moving into the automotive sector, as the skill of the Mexican workforce increased.

PART I: BORDER ECONOMICS SECTION C: THE DEVELOPING AEROSPACE SITUATION

The complexity of the maquiladora industry has continued, presently there is an increase in the exportation of American aerospace and defense industrial manufacturing. This most recent export comes tethered to another that of the United States Homeland Security apparatus, for the defense technology of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most prolific military power must be protected. In this move the guise of the wall as first and foremost a matter of national security is paradoxically obliterated as well as finally affirmed. It is obliterated by the exportation of confidential technology into a zone that the wall by its own existence has deemed unsafe. At the same time it supports its claim of national security, by allowing the production of more military and security apparatus at cheaper prices, developing a new landscape of the U. S. military-industrial complex. Capturing the cheaper workforce to the south, which is no longer populated by solely low-skilled labor but supports a burgeoning class of professional engineers, its yearly university output nearly rivaling its northern neighbor, who can be paid approximately half of what there northern neighbors require.

THE HONEYWELL SITUATION THE EMERGENCE OF R+D OPERATIONS WILL ONLY INCREASE, MOVING FROM BASIC OPERATIONS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF SECURITY AND SURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY FOR ITS NEAREST MARKET TH, THE MILITARIZED BORDER 44

The Honeywell Situation represents the next phase of the maquila industry, one located in a future almost here, in which not only the manufacturing and assembly of the United Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense technology is exported but also its research and development. No longer will certain parts be assembled which find their way into a drone which surveills the border, but the development of the drone itself will occur happen South of the border, as research and development facilities like Honeywellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Mexicali Facility spread and evolve . The maquiladora has moved into the production of technology and information, not for Mexico but for its northern neighbor much of which, represented by the fence, is deployed upon the designerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national population.

PART II: THE MAQUILAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NEXT STEP SECTION A: PRODUCING U.S. DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY SOUTH OF THE BORDER

The new exportation, of the development of the U.S. defense apparatus itself, requires that sites meet a new standard mediating the intersection of cheap labor and high security, to appease Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constant security anxiety. Yet the private American defense contractors, quickly establishing assembly plants that are evolving into research and development facilities and are on their way to becoming test sites, fed by the black hole of U.S. defense contracts, are driven by economics and the United States government becomes worried. They realize this exodus cannot be stopped, it is simply business, and anyways they can achieve more for less, yet a system should be established, precedents set. They begin discussions with the Mexican government, who aware of the lucrative opportunity of tapping into the U.S. military industrial complex, seek to appease their all too often erratic neighbor. But they become stuck, they cannot determine what to do. In a twist of fate, how it came to be no one is sure, or no one is willing to admit, the advice of an architect is sought.

PART II: THE MAQUILA’S NEXT STEP SECTION B: A NEW NAFTA The architect proposes the creation of new special economic zones within Mexico, the new NAFTAs as they become known, in which regulated defense research, development, and design may be carried out in a relative amount of security to appease the U.S. government but more importantly the general American population, who still believe the fence is a necessity of national security. The influx of lower wage Mexican engineers will gain admission to the zone, performing regulated defense contracts for U.S. corporations willingly, choosing to be a part of Mexico’s newest market and professional class. The special economic zone should be self-sustaining, an infrastructure that both promotes security while allowing for the utilization of cheap labor in a comfortable environment which satisfies the employees as well as the U.S. defense contracted corporations desired image.  
