Kenneth Madsen's research focuses on the interaction between local communities and border security / border law enforcement activities. Much of his work considers the specific circumstances of the Tohono O'odham of southern Arizona and northern Sonora. He is also interested in dynamics of indigenous-academic interactions and insights from fiction on geographic processes.
