Constructing Immigrant 'Illegality': Critiques, Experiences, and Responses
Cecilia Menjivar
From the beginning of its modern invocation in the early twentieth century, the often ill-defined epithet of human 'illegality' has figured prominently. This collection of essays examines how immigration law shapes immigrant illegality, how the concept of immigrant illegality is deployed and lived, and how its power is wielded and resisted.
