In the United States, as in Europe, immigration was a defining issue in recent national elections. Immigration not only involves government policies but also the human rights of millions of people. American Presidents, Deportations, and Human Rights Violations studies how recent immigration policies in the United States developed during the Obama administration and are now being expanded in the first months of the Trump presidency. Documenting the harsh treatment of immigrants over the past twenty years, Bill Ong Hing shows how mass detention and deportation of immigrants, from Clinton's two terms and the Bush administration, have escalated even higher. This book questions what price the United States is willing to pay for such harsh immigration policies in terms of our national values, and the impact on the lives of the millions of immigrants who deserve the full protection of universal human rights obligations. 505 00 $g Afterword: $t Abuser-in-chief. $t Nightmarish ICE enforcement tools -- $t Deporting unaccompanied children -- $t Family detention centers : creation, conditions, and continued detention -- $t Country conditions : why women and children flee the northern triangle -- $t Challenges to obtaining relief : why women and children flee the northern triangle -- $t Contextualizing the Trump immigration enforcement regime -- $t Closing : challenging the new deportation king -- $g Conclusion: $t Disrupting the deportation royalty -- $g Afterword: $t Abuser-in-chief. 651 0 $a United States $x History $x Government policy $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a United States $x History $x Government policy $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Deportation $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Deportation $x History $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Human rights $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Human rights $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Executive power $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Executive power $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration $x Government policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908700 650 7 $a Executive power. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00917857 650 7 $a Human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781108627696 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211022616.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190305060535.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0525543A3F1811E98434DF6697128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
