This book offers a comprehensive examination of the many forms of
victimization of immigrants, including trafficking in persons for
sexual exploitation and forced labor; assaulting, robbing and
raping; refusing to pay wages; renting illegal living space that
violates health codes; and domestic abuse both in general, and in
particular, of mail-order brides. McDonald examines a broad range
of quantitative and qualitative data from historical and
international sources including the USA, Canada, Mexico, Britain,
Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, the Netherlands,
Switzerland, Austria, Poland, and Spain. He writes with a view to
correcting myths about the relationship between immigrants and
crime, noting that immigrants are more likely to become victims
than offenders. The book outlines the multiple forms and contexts
in which immigrants are victimized, exploited, and harmed.
Reviewing micro- and macro-level victimological and sociological
theories as they apply to patterns and forms of immigrants'
victimization, this study ultimately seeks to understand reasons
for which immigrants are victimized by their own kind, and by
persons outside their community.
