Working as a volunteer in Mi Comunidad, Byrnes attempted to understand how the programme worked. As she travelled from site to site with the two female state employees who implemented the programme's policies, she saw that programme practices reproduced middle-class values rather than female solidarity. In spite of this, she argues for the potential of female professional power, with implications for democracy and social justice. Perhaps most interesting of all, Byrnes portrays the formation of non-border maquilas in detail and shows how government employees at the local level personally engage in "driving the state".
