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 administration and are now being expanded in the first months
of the Trump presidency. Documenting the harsh treatment of
immigrants over the past twenty years, Bill Ong Hing shows how mass
detention and deportation of immigrants, from Clinton's two terms
and the Bush administration, have escalated even higher. This book
questions what price the United States is willing to pay for such
harsh immigration policies in terms of our national values, and the
impact on the lives of the millions of immigrants who deserve the
full protection of universal human rights obligations.
