Bukele’s Ultra Iron Fist: Peace, But at What Cost
American Presidents, Deportations, and Human Rights Violations: From Carter to Trump
Of the many issues polarizing societies today, immigration is one of the most contentious. In the United States, as in Europe, immigration was a defining issue in recent national elections. Immigration not only involves government policies but also the human rights of millions of people. American Presidents, Deportations, and Human Rights Violations studies how recent immigration policies in the United States developed during the Obama administra…
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965: Legislating a New America
Along with the civil rights and voting rights acts, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 is one of the most important bills of the civil rights era. The Act's political, legal, and demographic impact continues to be felt, yet its legacy is controversial. The 1965 Act was groundbreaking in eliminating the white America immigration policy in place since 1790, ending Asian exclusion, and limiting discrimination against Eastern European Cathol…
Constructing Illegality in America: Critiques, Experiences, and Responses
The topic of 'illegal' immigration has been a major aspect of public discourse in the United States and many other immigrant-receiving countries. From the beginning of its modern invocation in the early twentieth century, the often ill-defined epithet of human 'illegality' has figured prominently in the media; in vigorous public debates at the national, state, and local levels; and in presidential campaigns. In this collection of essays, contribu…
Deporting our Souls: Values, Morality, and Immigration Policy
In the past three decades, images of undocumented immigrants pouring across the southern border have driven the immigration debate and policies have been implemented in response to those images. The Oklahoma City bombings and the tragic events of September 11, both of questionable relevance to immigration policy have provided further impetus to implement strategies that are anti-immigration in design and effect. This book discusses the major immi…
Misusing Immigration Policies in the Name of Homeland Security
Perhaps we should have expected a crackdown on non-citizens after 9/11. After all, the 19 hijackers were foreigners who somehow made it into the country to commit evil. Since they were adherents of Muslim extremism as advocated by Osama bin Laden, focusing the crackdown on Arab and Muslim noncitizens made sense—ethnic and religious profiling appeared to be in order. It seemed a natural response to implement new procedures and to reorganize admini…

Deporting Our Souls and Defending Our Immigrants
What does crime in Asian American mean to you? To me, it's been about immigrants who have faced deportation because of their criminal convictions. Like anyone who has represented or worked with those who have been or are in the criminal justice system, the experience has made me wonder and want to know more about how and why different individuals wind up behind bars or regarded as criminals by the system
Deporting Cambodian Refugees: Justice Denied
Until recently, the United States did not deport refugees convicted of crimes to the communist-dominated countries of Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. After all, these refugees had fled persecution, and diplomatic ties between the United States and these countries are not particularly strong. But in March 2002, the United States convinced Cambodia to each month accept the repatriation of a few of its nationals who have been convicted of aggrava…
Vigilante Racism: The De-Americanization of Immigrant America
Asians without Blacks and Latinos in San Francisco: Missed Lessons of the Common Good
Lowell High School represents a lot to Chinese American families in San Francisco. Lowell is the academic high school in the city. Lowell is regarded as one of the top academic high schools in California and enjoys a prestigious national reputation. If your child gets in, this means that he or she has done very well in middle school. It means that your child is a high academic achiever. It means that your child will be exposed to the challenging …
To be an American: Cultural Pluralism and Rhetoric of Assimilation
The impetus behind California's Proposition 187 clearly reflects the growing anti-immigrant sentiment in this country. Many Americans regard today's new immigrants as not truly American, as somehow less committed to the ideals on which the country was founded. In clear, precise terms, Bill Ong Hing considers immigration in the context of the global economy, a sluggish national economy, and the hard facts about downsizing. Importantly, he also con…

Making and Remaking Asian America
In 1882, Congress enacted immigration legislation excluding "idiots," "lunatics," and "Chinese laborers." Eventually, a series of laws restricted the entry of every Asian group, though over a period of decades these laws were repealed one by one. The most dramatic change in immigration law came in 1965. Though designed to encourage European immigration, the unintended result of changes in the selection system was that the Asian immigrant populati…
