National Security and Policy in America critically explores how American culture, neocolonial aspirations, and indifference towards others negatively impact long-term global security. This book examines immigration and security policies and their origins, purpose, impact, and evolution vis-a-vis the recently imposed 'travel ban' and proposed border wall across the Southern border, as well as how foreign policy influenced many of the migration flows that are often labeled as security risks. The book also seeks to understand why immigration has been falsely associated with crime, terrorism, and national insecurity, giving rise to counterproductive policies, despite evidence that immigrants face intolerance and turmoil due to the powerful distinctions between them and the native-born. This book uses an interdisciplinary framework in examining the United States' current response to immigration and security and will thus appeal to undergraduate and graduate students of law, social justice, criminology, critical theory, neo-colonialism, security studies, policing, migration, as well as political science interested in the practical questions of public administration."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a National security $z United States. 650 0 $a Border security $z United States. 650 0 $a Emigration and immigration $x Political aspects. 650 7 $a Border security. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01742239 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908710 650 7 $a National security. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01033711 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Boateng, Francis D., $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a McCann, Wesley S., $t National security and policy in America $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York : Routledge, 2020. $z 9781138487765 $w (DLC) 2019053266 830 0 $a Routledge research on decoloniality and new postcolonialisms. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721015722.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5CE2226A9FDF11EA86A3D44697128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
