Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honorable Mention, Latin American Studies Association Haiti-Dominican Republic Section Isis Duarte Book Prize Immigrants make up the largest proportion of federal prisoners in the United States, incarcerated in a vast network of more than two hundred detention facilities. This book investigates when detention became a centerpiece of U.S. immigration policy, revealing why the practice was reinstituted in 1981 after being halted for several decades and how the system expanded to become the world’s largest immigration detention regime. From the Krome Detention Center in Miami to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and to jails and prisons across the country, Haitians have been at the center of the story of immigration detention. When an influx of Haitian migrants and asylum seekers came to the U.S. in the 1970s, the government responded with exclusionary policies and detention, setting a precedent for future waves of immigrants. Carl Lindskoog details the discrimination Haitian refugees faced and how their resistance to this treatment—in the form of legal action and activism—prompted the government to reinforce its detention program and create an even larger system of facilities. Drawing on extensive archival research, including government documents, advocacy group archives, and periodicals, Lindskoog provides the first in-depth history of Haitians and immigration detention in the United States. Lindskoog asserts that systems designed for Haitian refugees laid the groundwork for the way immigrants to America are treated today. Detain and Punish provides essential historical context for the challenges faced by today’s immigrant groups, which are some of the most critical issues of our time.

Book Synopsis Islands of Sovereignty by : Jeffrey S. Kahn
Download or read book Islands of Sovereignty written by Jeffrey S. Kahn and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Islands of Sovereignty, anthropologist and legal scholar Jeffrey S. Kahn offers a new interpretation of the transformation of US borders during the late twentieth century and its implications for our understanding of the nation-state as a legal and political form. Kahn takes us on a voyage into the immigration tribunals of South Florida, the Coast Guard vessels patrolling the northern Caribbean, and the camps of Guantánamo Bay—once the world’s largest US-operated migrant detention facility—to explore how litigation concerning the fate of Haitian asylum seekers gave birth to a novel paradigm of offshore oceanic migration policing. Combining ethnography—in Haiti, at Guantánamo, and alongside US migration patrols in the Caribbean—with in-depth archival research, Kahn expounds a nuanced theory of liberal empire’s dynamic tensions and its racialized geographies of securitization. An innovative historical anthropology of the modern legal imagination, Islands of Sovereignty forces us to reconsider the significance of the rise of the current US immigration border and its relation to broader shifts in the legal infrastructure of contemporary nation-states across the globe.

Book Synopsis You Come Here Thinking It's the Land of Freedom ... by : C. Little
Download or read book You Come Here Thinking It's the Land of Freedom ... written by C. Little and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article begins by stating that Haitian refugees who seek safe haven in the United States find instead that they are singled out for special discrimination by the government. The author, staff attorney at the Haitian Refugee Center, Inc., states that the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) 'routinely dismisses Haitians as solely 'economic migrants', unworthy of political refugee status'. Ms Little then goes on to give a summary analysis of some of the obstacles and conditions refugees face, whether interdicted at sea or interned in detention camps inside the United States. As for interdiction, she examines the actions of the United States Government in the last eight years following the Haitian Migrant Interdiction Operation Treaty (HMIO). She overviews the history of the treaty before describing its implementation through the interview process and the general problem of the protection of the legal rights of the interdicted Haitians. In the section of the article on the detention of Haitian refugees, the author examines the 'restrictive parole policy' of the INS. In addition, Ms Little describes conditions at the Krome North Processing Center in Miami, Florida, as reported by private attorneys and Haitian detainees. A description is also given of the conditions under which Haitian detainees were transferred from Florida to Louisiana and Texas. The remainder of the article analyses the obstacles to be overcome for obtaining legal representation for Haitian detainees. In the conclusion, the author says that 'The current INS policy of interdiction and detention of the Haitians is not only inhuman and unjust, it is also ineffective in its failure to address the reality of political repression in Haiti'.
Download or read book Rightlessness written by A. Naomi Paik and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this bold book, A. Naomi Paik grapples with the history of U.S. prison camps that have confined people outside the boundaries of legal and civil rights. Removed from the social and political communities that would guarantee fundamental legal protections, these detainees are effectively rightless, stripped of the right even to have rights. Rightless people thus expose an essential paradox: while the United States purports to champion inalienable rights at home and internationally, it has built its global power in part by creating a regime of imprisonment that places certain populations perceived as threats beyond rights. The United States' status as the guardian of rights coincides with, indeed depends on, its creation of rightlessness. Yet rightless people are not silent. Drawing from an expansive testimonial archive of legal proceedings, truth commission records, poetry, and experimental video, Paik shows how rightless people use their imprisonment to protest U.S. state violence. She examines demands for redress by Japanese Americans interned during World War II, testimonies of HIV-positive Haitian refugees detained at Guantanamo in the early 1990s, and appeals by Guantanamo's enemy combatants from the War on Terror. In doing so, she reveals a powerful ongoing contest over the nature and meaning of the law, over civil liberties and global human rights, and over the power of the state in people's lives.

Download or read book United States Migrant Interdiction and the Detention of Refugees in Guantánamo Bay written by Azadeh Dastyari and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a thorough legal analysis of the United States Migrant Interdiction Program, examining the United States' compliance with its obligations under municipal and international law as it interdicts individuals at sea, conducts status determinations, and returns those interdicted to their home countries. This book also examines the rights of the small number of refugees and individuals at risk of torture detained in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, awaiting resettlement in third countries. Policy-makers, students and scholars will benefit from this book's clarification of the legal obligations of nations engaged in extraterritorial status determination and detention, as well as its blueprint for compliance with international human rights and refugee law. As the first book of its kind devoted to the United States' interdiction program, this work represents an important contribution to scholarship in refugee law and policy, US constitutional law, international maritime law, and international human rights law.
Book Synopsis Black Interdictions by : Philip Kretsedemas
Download or read book Black Interdictions written by Philip Kretsedemas and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-02-21 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Black Interdictions, Philip Kretsedemas exposes the antiblack racism latent in the U.S. government’s Haitian refugee policies of the 1980s and 1990s which set the tone for the criminalization of migrants and refugees in the new millennium and lead to the migration and refugee policies of the Trump era and beyond. This type of radical exclusion is singular to the black experience and the black/nonblack binary must be factored into an analysis of the US migration regime. It is not possible to work together for equity and justice if we are not prepared to grapple with this divisive history and the instinct to avoid dealing with the singularity of the black experience. This book will be of interest to scholars of migration and refugee studies, black studies, legal studies, public policy and international relations, and many others.

Book Synopsis U.S. Immigration Policy on Haitian Migrants by :
Download or read book U.S. Immigration Policy on Haitian Migrants written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environmental, social, and political conditions in Haiti have long prompted congressional interest in U.S. policy on Haitian migrants, particularly those attempting to reach the United States surreptitiously by boat. While some observers assert that such arrivals by Haitians are a breach in border security, others maintain that these Haitians are asylum seekers following a 30-year practice of Haitians coming by boat without legal immigration documents. Migrant interdiction and mandatory detention are key components of U.S. policy toward Haitian migrants, but human rights advocates express concern that Haitians are not afforded the same treatment as other asylum seekers arriving in the United States. This report does not track legislation but will be updated if policies are revised.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environmental, social, and political conditions in Haiti have long prompted congressional interest in U.S. policy on Haitian migrants, particularly those attempting to reach the United States by boat. While some observers assert that such arrivals by Haitians are a breach in border security, others maintain that these Haitians are asylum seekers following a decades old practice of Haitians coming by boat without legal immigration documents. Migrant interdiction and mandatory detention are key components of U.S. policy toward Haitian migrants, but human rights advocates express concern that Haitians are not afforded the same treatment as other asylum seekers. The devastation caused by the January 12, 2010, earthquake in Haiti has led Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano to grant Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Haitians in the United States at the time of the earthquake. The scale of current humanitarian crisis--estimated thousands of Haitians dead and reported total collapse of the infrastructure in the capital city of Port au Prince--resulted in this TPS announcement on January 15, 2010. Secretary Napolitano also announced that Haitian children who were legally confirmed as orphans eligible for intercountry adoption by the government of Haiti and who were in the process of being ...

Download or read book Justice and Law Enforcement written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed certain policies and practices of the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) related to the detention of aliens seeking asylum in the United States, INS detention policy, the selection of detention sites, the physical and health conditions of detention facilities, and the total Government cost for the detention of Haitian immigrants. In recent years, INS has taken into custody an increasing number of aliens attempting to enter the United States illegally. Before May 1981, INS released or paroled excludable aliens who were not considered a security risk. However, after that date, INS began to routinely detain excludable aliens for long periods. The rights of excludable aliens have been greatly enhanced in recent years by litigation. However, this litigation has resulted in the temporary suspension of exclusion hearings, thus delaying the hearing process. After a court declared that the new detention policy was null and void, INS has remedied a procedural issue concerning public notice but has remained committed to a strict detention policy. However, INS was not prepared to provide care for so many individuals for so long. Detainees at times live under severely crowded conditions without basic amenities and services. Two detention facilities are presently being used for Haitian aliens and construction of one more facility is being planned. Long-term detention of Haitians costs the Government about $49 a day per detainee, compared with costs for short-term detention which ranges from $12 to $18 per day in other INS facilities. GAO believes that INS should work to achieve better alternatives than the extremes that detention and parole now offer.
