"Producing "Illegality
As record numbers of Mexican and Central Americans arrive at the US-Mexico border, they encounter an asylum system that has evolved to exclude them. After detailing the specific legal changes that racialize these nationalities through criminalization, this study uses asylum data to illustrate how the current structure of the asylum process produces illegality for Mexican and Central Americans seeking protection in the US. We draw on asylum data o…

Bordering through care and control
Asylum is Not for Mexicans
In this article we engage and extend work on race and border politics via an analysis of unaccompanied Mexican migrant youth. Historically, until recently, Mexican youth have formed the largest group of unaccompanied minors attempting to move across the US-Mexico border. However, a set of structural political, socio-legal, and everyday institutional violences lead to their neglect, disregard and exclusion from rights to protections in both the US…
Food sovereignty and property in Cuba and the United States
Food sovereignty promotes agroecological farming methods and the reduction of food insecurity through changing political relations between people, land and food policy. Market orientations to land and private property in liberal democracies restrict access to food, and thus for food sovereigntists, reframing the social relationship to land through property is key to making food more available. This paper examines the case of usufruct land rights …
Gendered constraints on a strategy of regional mobility
In August 2005, rising waters from Hurricane Katrina compromised several of New Orleans’ levees, causing extensive flooding that, in the face of government inaction, resulted in the deaths of 1,400 people and a large‐scale evacuation of the city. As long‐term residents of the city evacuated, New Orleans witnessed an influx of new Latino/a immigrants who arrived to demolish irreparable structures, clear toxic debris, and rebuild. Disaster recovery…
Im/Mobility at the US-Mexico Border during the Covid-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the United States government began a series of measures designed to dramatically restrict immigration as part of its response to the global health crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic. This included Title 42, which deported asylum seekers immediately and prevented them from applying for asylum. These measures worsened an already precarious situation at the US-Mexico border for an estimated 60,000 asylum seekers who were preven…
The uneven geography of asylum and humanitarian relief
The rising number of unaccompanied migrant children (UMC) crossing the U.S.-Mexico border received intense media attention during 2014 and remains significant. Unaccompanied minors seeking relief through the immigration court system is at a record high. A crisis of legal representation and of disparity in granting asylum or other humanitarian relief across Department of Justice (DOJ) immigration courts and among individual judges creates an unequ…
Organic certification as assemblage
Through the lens of assemblage theory, we conceptualise organic certification for agricultural products in Cuba as a “dispositif‐assemblage,” through which we trace a multiple and conflicted “will to govern” the production and valuing of food qualities. We juxtapose the hierarchical third‐party certification system for Cuban organic honey for export with a proposed horizontal participatory guarantee system for organic products to be consumed in C…
Re-conceptualising agency in migrant children from Central America and Mexico
With child migration on the rise, there is a critical need to understand how migrant children express their agency. To date, popular narratives cast migrant children as either victims or criminals, an unhelpful binary that does little to further efforts to develop effective interventions to help migrant youth. Drawing from 32 in-depth interviews and participatory activities with Mexican and Central American children in Mexican youth immigration d…
Hispanic and Latino New Orleans
Annie M. Gibson to collaborate on this richly detailed exploration of New Orleans's Hispanic and Latino communities. The collaborative work draws on the authors' considerable methodological strengths, including historical overviews, in-depth analysis and mapping of census data, landscape observations, and contemporary oral history and focus group interviews. This is a timely release. New Orleans's Latino population has attracted new attention as …

Understanding the Place of Cuban Internationalism
For this issue of the International Journal of Cuban Studies we have selected three articles that explore dimensions of Cuba's unique approach to the international development landscape. The term 'Cuban internationalism' encompasses the country's broad approach to dynamic global relations that intersect economic trade, bilateral diplomacy, and social development. The authors in this issue are all careful to avoid the terminology of diplomacy, out…
Internationalism's Remittances
Since the implementation of post-Soviet economic reforms, remittances have had a strong influence on the Cuban economy and society. While economic and social influences of remittances from permanent migration have been examined, the same cannot be said of remittances from temporary migration. As part of an expansion of professional service exports over the past decade, tens of thousands of Cuban professionals ( internationalistas ) have worked ab…
Subcontracting work via social networks
The unprecedented destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina attracted tens of thousands of Latino migrants to work in clean‐up and reconstruction jobs in the New Orleans area. This study uses a survey of Latino workers in New Orleans and interviews from various actors involved in the recruitment and hiring of migrant labour – including employers, subcontractors, and the workers themselves – to explore how migrant networks function. In particular, i…
Surviving sin papeles in post‐Katrina New Orleans
The literature on Latino migration to new and re‐emerging destinations has emphasised the advantages of settling outside gateway cities, especially with regard to employment and affordable housing, but less attention has been given to the challenges faced by Latinos in these areas of recent settlement, particularly by those who do not have legal permission to reside in the US. By examining the situation confronting undocumented Latino migrants in…

The Erosion of Racial Equality in the Context of Cuba's Dual Economy
Scholars of Cuba have long linked Afro-Cubans' fate to the revolutionary government. As the government's influence on people's daily lives has declined over the past decade, the question arises of whether Afro-Cubans have sustained the gains they achieved in the revolution's first 30 years. This article uses survey data, collected in December 2000 from 334 Cuban families in Havana, to assess the impact of the post-1993 economic reforms on rising …
Including Women in Development
Recent years have witnessed an important shift in the administration of development aid away from large governmental programs to the smaller projects of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and widespread recognition of the general failure of governmental programs to include women in development. After a brief overview of this shift and the changes that made women's empowerment an accepted development goal, this article will describe the experien…
Race, Class, and Segregation Patterns in U.S. Immigrant Gateway Cities
Previous studies have shown some tendency toward increased residential racial and ethnic integration, especially in large West Coast metropolitan areas. They have also shown in limited studies that integration, or at least declines in separation, occur with increases in socioeconomic status. The results of this study, using recently released 2000 census data for metropolitan areas with large numbers of foreign born, show that indeed separation do…
State Policy, Economic Crisis, Gender, and Family Ties
This article advances the argument that changing economic conditions in the home country act as an important determinant for sending remittances. Research on the determinants of remittances has tended to focus on the characteristics of the sending population. In the case of Cuba, disproportionate attention is paid to political disincentives to send remittances and not enough to changing state policy and the growing economic demand for remittances…
