The Justice Gap for Unaccompanied Children in US Immigration Court
Despite their status as a formally protected group in US immigration law, unaccompanied minors are not guaranteed legal representation. Facing removal proceedings in immigration court alone places children at high risk of deportation back to danger and deprivation in their home countries. Limited funding exists for migrant-serving legal aid organizations, and indigent children’s demand for free legal services far outpaces the available supply. Th…
New Data on Unaccompanied Minors in US Immigration Court (2009–2023)
Lack of data transparency and administrative data quality issues have hindered our understanding of the treatment of unaccompanied minors in the United States to date. This Dispatch from the Field provides new statistics on nearly a half million unaccompanied minors navigating removal proceedings in US immigration courts nationwide between 2009 and 2023 (through March), including population demographics, geographic location of cases, representati…
Atrial Fibrillation and Other Cardiovascular Factors and the Risk of Dementia
Dementia is a major neurologic syndrome characterized by severe cognitive decline, and it has a detrimental impact on overall physical health, leading to conditions such as frailty, changes in gait, and fall risk. Depending on whether symptoms occur before or after the age of 65, it can be classified as early-onset (EOD) or late-onset (LOD) dementia. The present study is aimed at investigating the role of cardiovascular factors on EOD and LOD ris…
Bringing Children to the Center of Migration Theory
Migration theory is adult-centric, failing to account for the experiences of children despite their increasingly important participation in migration flows. Using a life-course perspective and findings from research at the intersection of childhood studies and migration, this paper considers whether different migration theories apply to child migration as compared to adult migration. We examine this question using the Mexican Migration Project da…
Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing? What Central American Unaccompanied Minors Know About Crossing the US-Mexico Border
This paper examines what Central American unaccompanied minors know about the unauthorized journey to the US and protective US immigration laws. I find that, contrary to policymakers’ assumptions, children know little about US immigration laws, but they are well aware of the dangers of the journey. I argue that the composition of migrant networks and the strength of ties shape how children acquire information and resources indispensable to plan u…
Anosognosia in Early- and Late-Onset Dementia and Its Association With Neuropsychiatric Symptoms
Background: The symptom anosognosia or unawareness of disease in dementia has mainly been studied in patients with late-onset dementia (LOD, ≥65 years), whereas little is known on whether it is also present in patients with early-onset dementia (EOD, Methods: A total of 148 patients, 91 EOD and 57 LOD, were recruited and underwent extended clinical assessment and caregiver interview that included questionnaires aimed at measuring anosognosia and …
Environmental Risk Factors for Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Dementia and Frontotemporal Dementia
Background : Early-onset dementia (EOD) is defined as dementia with symptom onset before 65 years. The role of environmental risk factors in the etiology of EOD is still undefined. We aimed at assessing the role of environmental risk factors in EOD etiology, taking into account its different clinical types. Methods : Using a case-control study, we recruited all EOD cases referred to Modena hospitals from 2016 to 2019, while the referent populatio…
Fragile families
‘Fragile Families: Foster Care, Immigration, and Citizenship’, by Naomi Glen-Levin Rodriguez, examines the experiences of undocumented and mixed-status Latinx families who are caught up in the child welfare system in the USA. The book forcefully demonstrates how a system that is ostensibly meant to protect children and preserve families instead reproduces inequalities, rendering the unity of Latinx families especially precarious. In this importan…
Humanitarian capital
This paper explores how humanitarianism operates within the nation-state, asking: what strategies do lawyers employ to help undocumented immigrants access membership rights in the United States though humanitarian policies? I identify three concurrent evaluations that lawyers undertake to determine legalisation strategies. First, attorneys carry out an assessment of threat of deportation because not all undocumented immigrants are equally at risk…
The Ambivalent U.S. Context of Reception and the Dichotomous Legal Consciousness of Unaccompanied Minors
This article examines the effects of contradictory U.S. immigration laws on unaccompanied minors from Central America. As children, they are considered deserving of protection, but as undocumented immigrants, they are subjected to state legal violence. Apprehended at the border, they must interact with multiple immigration agencies and finally apply for humanitarian deportation relief. Interactions in these institutional spaces teach youths about…
A rite of reverse passage
Drawing on ethnographic research at a legal aid organization, I analyse the legal brokerage of youths' asylum applications. As youths increasingly seek asylum alone, the US has adopted policy changes allowing them more favourable access to the asylum process than adults. Despite this opening, I argue that mediating youths' asylum claims remains challenging. First, youths have more difficulty sharing their stories than adults, and I identify three…
