Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haitian seasonal migration to Cuba is central to narratives about race, national development, and US imperialism in the early twentieth-century Caribbean. Filling a major gap in the literature, this innovative study reconstructs Haitian guestworkers' lived experiences as they moved among the rural and urban areas of Haiti, and the sugar plantations, coffee farms, and cities of eastern Cuba. It offers an unprecedented glimpse into the daily workings of empire, labor, and political economy in Haiti and Cuba. Migrants' efforts to improve their living and working conditions and practice their religions shaped migration policies, economic realities, ideas of race, and Caribbean spirituality in Haiti and Cuba as each experienced US imperialism.

Download or read book Cuban Privilege written by Susan Eva Eckstein and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-02 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over half a century the US granted Cubans, one of the largest immigrant groups in the country, unique entitlements. While other unauthorized immigrants faced detention, deportation, and no legal rights, Cuban immigrants were able to enter the country without authorization, and have access to welfare benefits and citizenship status. This book is the first to reveal the full range of entitlements granted to Cubans. Initially privileged to undermine the Castro-led revolution in the throes of the Cold War, one US President after another extended new entitlements, even in the post-Cold War era. Drawing on unseen archives, interviews, and survey data, Cuban Privilege highlights how Washington, in the process of privileging Cubans, transformed them from agents of US Cold War foreign policy into a politically powerful force influencing national policy. Comparing the exclusionary treatment of neighboring Haitians, the book discloses the racial and political biases embedded within US immigration policy.
Download or read book Islands of Sovereignty written by Jeffrey S. Kahn and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Islands of Sovereignty, anthropologist and legal scholar Jeffrey S. Kahn offers a new interpretation of the transformation of US borders during the late twentieth century and its implications for our understanding of the nation-state as a legal and political form. Kahn takes us on a voyage into the immigration tribunals of South Florida, the Coast Guard vessels patrolling the northern Caribbean, and the camps of Guantánamo Bay—once the world’s largest US-operated migrant detention facility—to explore how litigation concerning the fate of Haitian asylum seekers gave birth to a novel paradigm of offshore oceanic migration policing. Combining ethnography—in Haiti, at Guantánamo, and alongside US migration patrols in the Caribbean—with in-depth archival research, Kahn expounds a nuanced theory of liberal empire’s dynamic tensions and its racialized geographies of securitization. An innovative historical anthropology of the modern legal imagination, Islands of Sovereignty forces us to reconsider the significance of the rise of the current US immigration border and its relation to broader shifts in the legal infrastructure of contemporary nation-states across the globe.

Download or read book This Land Is Our Land written by Alex Stepick and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2003-05-26 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those opposed to immigration, Miami is a nightmare. Miami is the de facto capital of Latin America; it is a city where immigrants dominate, Spanish is ubiquitous, and Denny's is an ethnic restaurant. Are Miami's immigrants representative of a trend that is undermining American culture and identity? Drawing from in-depth fieldwork in the city and looking closely at recent events such as the Elián González case, This Land Is Our Land examines interactions between immigrants and established Americans in Miami to address fundamental questions of American identity and multiculturalism. Rather than focusing on questions of assimilation, as many other studies have, this book concentrates on interethnic relations to provide an entirely new perspective on the changes wrought by immigration in the United States. A balanced analysis of Miami's evolution over the last forty years, This Land Is Our Land is also a powerful demonstration that immigration in America is not simply an "us versus them" phenomenon.

Download or read book The United States New Refugees written by Carol Ascher and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper summarizes available research material on the resettlement of South-East Asian, Haitian and Cuban refugees in the United States, and is addressed to policy makers in education and other human services. It is divided into nine chapters in which the author includes material on the government's policy towards these refugees; the response of local communities to the influxes; the refugee experience, camp experience and differing cultural backgrounds; educational programmes for refugees; and, different aspects of adjustment by the refugees. The author draws attention to the lack of serious research on the 1980 influxes of Cubans and Haitians which, she suggests, is due to their ambiguous legal status. The author also suggests that the definition of a refugee be rethought. In referring to the acknowledged failure of the government's "scatter policy", the author emphasises the importance of the community in the refugee's capacity to establish a self-help network and to cope with problems originating from the exodus and from cultural assimilation in the United States. Finally, the author points out that the refugees themselves also require better access to knowledge about what information exists as well as better access to the actual documents and sources.
