The authors use a unique data set and multimethod approach to
document the criminalization of migration and demonstrate the
futility of deportation as a tool for deterrence. This book should
energize activists, inspire academic researchers, and challenge
policy-makers to rethink this failed approach."" - Wayne A.
Cornelius, Director Emeritus, Mexican Migration Field Research and
Training Program, University of California, San Diego
""This book shows how U.S. immigration policy has changed over the
years and generated unintended, undesirable outcomes: tearing
families apart, fueling violence, and failing to keep deported
unauthorized immigrants from attempting to immigrate anew."" -
Susan Eva Eckstein, Boston University
