About this book
This book takes a critical, interdisciplinary, and transnational look at immigration enforcement. It connects neoliberal governance, global labor markets, and the national obsession with securing borders to recast deportation, detention, and border-control policies in the United States and worldwide in terms of a decades-long “age of punishment.”

Reviews
David Androff, Arizona State University:
This innovative book captures the changing nature of global migration and immigration policies, critiquing and contextualizing them for readers. Theoretically rich, Immigration Policy in the Age of Punishment is one of the more thorough efforts to draw important connections between mainstream aspects of U.S. criminal justice—such as hyper-incarceration and the self-reinforcing, self-fulfilling “tough on crime” approaches—and the criminalization of immigration.

César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández, Sturm College of Law, University of Denver:
Immigration Policy in the Age of Punishment identifies the sharp edges of Western efforts to make life difficult for migrants. Importantly, it does so in part by doing what many books fail to do: expanding its gaze away from a narrow concern about the boundaries of nation-states. Reaching into fields as disparate as geography and sociology, these essays will begin to define the field of critical immigration enforcement studies.
Michael Welch, Rutgers University and University of Buenos Aires:
This timely volume takes sharp aim at institutions that continue to marginalize the vulnerable, and, in doing so, it makes important advances for Studies in Transgression. Toward that end, an impressive roster of international contributors demonstrates the global implications of border—and social—control.
