Discussions on U.S. border enforcement have traditionally focused
on the highly charged U.S.-Mexico boundary, inadvertently obscuring
U.S.-Caribbean relations and the concerning asylum and detention
policies unfolding there. Boats, Borders, and Bases offers the
missing, racialized histories of the U.S. detention system and its
relationship to the interception and detention of Haitian and Cuban
migrants. It argues that the U.S. response to Cold War Caribbean
migrations actually established the legal and institutional basis
for contemporary migration and detention and border deterrent
practices in the U.S. This book promises to make a significant
contribution to a truer understanding of the history and geography
of the U.S. detention system overall.
