Productinformatie

"The discussion of passing itself is fascinating. Angela S. García challenges the notion that inclusion and exclusion are binaries by showing that exclusionary practices can lead to inclusionary strategies. She provides a nuanced picture of the impact of living as an undocumented immigrant." —Susan C. Bibler Coutin, author of Exiled Home: Salvadoran Transnational Youth in the Aftermath of Violence

“Angela S. García shows in breathtaking detail how accommodating and restrictive immigration policies enacted in cities shape the everyday lives of undocumented immigrants—from where they decide to settle and how they form bonds to how they construct their own identities. With rich empirical portraits and elegant prose, García helps us to grasp the intricacies of one of the most important and complicated issues of our time. This is social science at its best."—Tomás Jiménez, author of The Other Side of Assimilation: How Immigrants are Changing American Life

" Legal Passing contributes a much-needed examination of the effects of local immigration legislation on the everyday lives of Mexican undocumented immigrants. In engaging writing and with insightful analysis, Legal Passing also provides lessons for policy makers and for those concerned with these immigrants’ future membership in US society."—Cecilia Menjívar, author of Immigrant Families

"In this rigorous mixed-methods study, Angela S. García demonstrates how restrictive city laws intended to deter immigrant settlement accomplish quite the opposite: they paradoxically encourage the rapid incorporation of immigrants in those very same communities, albeit in ways that are harmful to the well-being of these immigrants, their families, and the broader community."—Monica Varsanyi, author of Policing Immigrants: Local Law Enforcement on the Front Lines

Legal Passing offers a nuanced look at how the lives of undocumented Mexicans in the US are constantly shaped by federal, state, and local immigration laws. Angela S. García compares restrictive and accommodating immigration measures in various cities and states to show that place-based inclusion and exclusion unfold in seemingly contradictory ways. Instead of fleeing restrictive localities, undocumented Mexicans react by presenting themselves as “legal,” masking the stigma of illegality to avoid local police and federal immigration enforcement. Restrictive laws coerce assimilation, because as legal passing becomes habitual and embodied, immigrants distance themselves from their ethnic and cultural identities. In accommodating destinations, undocumented Mexicans experience a localized sense of stability and membership that is simultaneously undercut by the threat of federal immigration enforcement and complex street-level tensions with local police. Combining social theory on immigration and race as well as place and law, Legal Passing uncovers the everyday failures and long-term human consequences of contemporary immigration laws in the US.
