VASQUEZ, Olga A.. Education in a Global Age: An Inter-California Strategy for the Tijuana-San Diego Region. Frontera norte [online]. 2002, vol.14, n.28, pp.21-46. ISSN 2594-0260.

This article lays out a blueprint for an Inter-California Strategy that would link the San Diego and Tijuana areas as one regional force. It attempts to conceptualize two distinct and often disharmonious areas as one, painting with broad strokes the uneven economic and educational conditions on the two sides of the border. It discusses past binational collaboration on education and sketches the possibilities for future collaboration, offering timely recommendations to bring it about and predictions for what it could achieve. In calling for an inter-California region, the article also argues for a global identity and, specifically, for an education that is relevant to the new economic, technical, and scientific advances that are increasingly illuminating a new global society.
