Outside Justice: Undocumented Immigrants and the Criminal Justice
System fills a clear gap in the scholarly literature on the
increasing conceptual overlap between popular perceptions of
immigration and criminality, and its reflection in the increasing
practical overlap between criminal justice and immigration control
systems. Drawing on data from the United States and other nations,
scholars from a range of academic disciplines examine the impact of
these trends on the institutions, communities, and individuals that
are experiencing them. Individual entries address criminal
victimization and labor exploitation of undocumented immigrant
communities, the effects of parental detention and deportation on
children remaining in destination countries, relations between
immigrant communities and law enforcement agencies, and the
responses of law enforcement agencies to drastic changes in
immigration policy, among other topics. Taken as a whole, these
essays chart the ongoing progression of social forces that will
determine the well-being of Western democracies throughout the 21st
century. In doing so, they set forth a research agenda for
reexamining and challenging the goals of converging criminal
justice and immigration control policy, and raise a number of
carefully considered, ethical alternatives to the contemporary
policy status quo. Contemporary immigration is the focus of highly
charged rhetoric and policy innovation, both attempting to define
the movement of people across national borders as fundamentally an
issue of criminal justice. This realignment has had profound
effects on criminal justice policy and practice and immigration
control alike, and raises far-reaching implications for social
inclusion, labor economies, community cohesion, and a host of other
areas of immediate interest to social science researchers and
practitioners.
