Abstract
The global economy has undercut nation-state borders. In doing so, as Fraser argues, issues and peoples are misframed and thus misrepresented. In this chapter, we examine three cases of misframing: Los 43, DREAMers and recent Chicago school reform. These cases demonstrate that Educational Leaders Without Borders have to develop dramatically new approaches to leadership. Educational Leaders Without Borders, of course, cannot overcome the failures of the nation-state or the global economy, but they are now responsible for creating communities across borders and representing these communities politically and economically in the new world order.

Although these moves have not been without consequence for Rahm Emanuel, who faced a run-off election against Mexican American Jesús García, a progressive who entered the mayoral race when Chicago Teachers Union president, Karen Black, stepped down, Emanuel is nonetheless succeeding at a racial re-engineering of Chicago’s public schools and continues as the Mayor of Chicago, beating Garcia with 56 % of the vote.
