Judgment: Reversed and remanded, 5-4, in an opinion by Justice Alito on March 3, 2020. Justice Thomas filed a concurring opinion, in which Justice Gorsuch joined. Justice Breyer filed an opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part, in which Justices Ginsburg, Sotomayor and Kagan joined.

[link removed]
Holding: (1) A Bivens remedy is not available when there are "special factors counselling hesitation in the absence of affirmative action by Congress," and the court recently clarified in Ziglar v. Abbasi what constitutes a special factor counselling hesitation; the court of appeals should consider how the reasoning and analysis in Ziglar bear on the question whether the parents of a victim shot by a U.S. Border Patrol agent may recover damages for his death; (2) It would be imprudent for the Supreme Court to decide Jesus Hernandez’s Fourth Amendment claim when, in light of the intervening guidance provided in Abbasi, doing so may be unnecessary to resolve this particular case; and (3) with respect to Hernandez’s Fifth Amendment claim, because it is undisputed that the victim's nationality and the extent of his ties to the United States were unknown to the agent at the time of the shooting, the en banc court of appeals erred in granting qualified immunity based on those facts.
Judgment: Vacated and remanded in a per curiam opinion on June 26, 2017. Justice Thomas filed a dissenting opinion. Justice Breyer filed a dissenting opinion, in which Justice Ginsburg joined. Justice Gorsuch took no part in the consideration or decision of this case.

Employment among immigrants, register-based
Statistics Norway, March 2, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary:
67.1% of the immigrants aged 20-66 years are employed Q4 2019
+++
Population growth at 39,400 in 2019
As 2020 began, Norway’s population stood at 5,367,580. Population growth for 2019 came in at 39,400.
February 27, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary:
Stable immigration count, fewer births
After the number of immigrations spiked at 79,500 in 2011, it fell quickly in the following years. In 2018, the number was 52,500, whereas the number for 2019 was 52,200. Such a meagre reduction in the number of immigrations has rarely occurred after 2011, when the recent norm has been annual declines in the thousands.
Net immigration for 2019 came in at 25,300, which is a big rise from 2018’s figure of 18,100. Do note, though, that much of this increase is due to special circumstances with regards to the registering of emigrations in 2019. These resulted in the registering of about 5,000 fewer emigrations than would have been the case under normal circumstances and relate to non-Nordic EEA citizens.

[link removed]
Summary: According to Statistics Finland's preliminary data, Finland's population was 5,528,442 at the end of January. Our country's population increased by 869 persons during January. The reason for the increase was migration gain from abroad, since immigration exceeded emigration by 1,127. The number of births was 671 lower than that of deaths.
. . .
According to the preliminary statistics for January, 2,231 persons immigrated to Finland from abroad and 1,104 persons emigrated from Finland. The number of immigrants was 569 lower and the number of emigrants 268 lower than in the corresponding period of the previous year.

Health and nursing care: number of recognised foreign professional qualifications nearly doubled from 2016 to 2018
Qualifications from Syria recognised most often for physicians
Federal Statistical Office of Germany, March 2, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary: The German health and nursing care system is facing a skilled labour shortage. To reduce this shortage, employers are searching also for skilled labour from abroad. In 2018 alone, the professional qualifications of 10,350 nurses from abroad were recognised in Germany. With regard to the new Skilled Immigration Act, the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) also reports that the number of qualified nursing staff was thus nearly twice as high as two years earlier (2016: 5,600).
In all of Germany, 36,400 foreign professional qualifications were recognised in 2018. The qualifications recognised were most often those of nurses (28.4%).

Migrant integration: overcrowding rate
Eurostat, February 28, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary: In the European Union (EU), 35% of non-EU citizens were living in overcrowded households in 2018, meaning they did not have the number of rooms appropriate to the size of the household. By contrast, this rate was 17% for nationals and 20% for foreign EU citizens (i.e. EU citizens residing in another EU country).
Among EU Member States, the overcrowding rate recorded for non-EU citizens was the highest in Bulgaria (60%), Croatia (59%), Poland (56 %), Greece (55%) and Italy (54%). The lowest rates were observed in Malta (8%) and Cyprus (5%).
For foreign EU citizens, the overcrowding rate was highest in Greece and Italy (both 45%). In Malta there was not a significant number of foreign EU citizens living in overcrowded households in 2018.
The highest overcrowding rates for nationals were recorded in Romania (47%), Bulgaria (44%), Latvia (42%) and Croatia (41%), while the lowest were in Cyprus (2%) and Ireland (1%).

Summary: 2019 was an important year for Frontex, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency. It was significant because for the first time we launched a large operation outside the European Union, in Albania. It was a leap towards becoming an essential player in keeping Europe’s citizens safe by securing our borders, even beyond the EU. It was also a transitional year as we began to prepare the ground for the creation of the European Border and Coast Guard standing corps that will also consist of the first European uniformed service.

Rasmussen Reports Weekly Immigration Index
March 3, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Excerpt: Little changed from week to week is the sizable 68% who feel the government should mandate that employers use the federal electronic E-Verify system to help ensure they hire only legal workers for U.S. jobs. Twenty-one percent (21%) disagree, while 11% are undecided.
Also generally unchanged from past surveys is the 57% of voters who favor giving lifetime work permits to most of the approximately two million illegal residents who came to this country when they were minors, with 34% who Strongly Favor. Thirty-six percent (36%) are opposed, including 18% who are Strongly Opposed.
But just 44% favor giving lifetime work permits to most of the estimated 12 million illegal residents of all ages who currently reside in the United States, with 22% who Strongly Favor it. Forty-nine percent (49%) remain opposed, including 30% who are Strongly Opposed.
Legal immigration has averaged around a million annually in recent years, but 45% of voters believe the government should be adding no more than 750,000 new immigrants each year, with 32% who say it should be fewer than 500,000. Thirty-eight percent (38%) favor adding one million or more legal newcomers per year, including 11% who say the figure should be higher than 1.5 million. Sixteen percent (16%) are not sure.

Public Charge Law is Rarely Used to Deport Immigrants—Is That About to Change?
February 28, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Excerpt:
Less Than Half of All Public Charge Cases are Sustained in Immigration Court
Out of 4.7 million Immigration Court cases completed from October 1995 to January 2020, only 13,096 cited public charge statutes on the Notice to Appear (NTA) filed by DHS as a basis for the government seeking removal of the individual. Thus the usage of allegedly becoming a public charge as grounds for removal is also exceedingly rare in court proceedings. Court case-by-case records indicate that public charge grounds were cited in only 28 out of every 10,000 cases (0.28%), and were sustained in only 13 out of every 10,000 cases (0.13%). See Tables 2 and 3 at the end of this report.
When DHS does bring "public charge" charges against immigrants in court, it is usually cited along with other violations of the immigration rules. Only 10 percent of the time is it the sole charge. So reliance upon concerns that the immigrant is likely to become, or has become, a public charge as the sole reason for seeking removal are even rarer.
Finally, the records show that when the "public charge" rules are cited as the basis for seeking removal it is sustained less than half of the time (46%). When a "public charge" violation is the sole basis for seeking removal, it is sustained more often—71 percent of the time.
ICE Sends Detainers to 3,671 Law Enforcement Agencies in FY 2019
February 24, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Excerpt:
A total of 3,671 law enforcement agencies (LEAs) were sent detainers by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials during fiscal year 2019. This figure is based on the latest detainer-by-detainer internal ICE records obtained and analyzed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University. ICE issues detainers asking local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to hold individuals up to 48 hours[1] in order to give ICE time to take them into custody and initiate deportation steps. ICE views detainers as a foundation of its Secure Communities program. According to its records, ICE sent detainers to LEAs in 2,158 counties in all 50 states.
Despite the large number of LEAs that received ICE detainer requests last year, the receipt of a request to turn someone the agency had taken into custody over to ICE was a relatively unusual event for most. A third (34%) of these law enforcement agencies received no more than three such requests during all of last year. About one in six (16%) received just a single detainer request.

Crimmigrant Nations: Resurgent Nationalism and the Closing of Borders

Book Description: As the distinction between domestic and international is increasingly blurred along with the line between internal and external borders, migrants―particularly people of color―have become emblematic of the hybrid threat both to national security and sovereignty and to safety and order inside the state. From building walls and fences, overcrowding detention facilities, and beefing up border policing and border controls, a new narrative has arrived that has migrants assume the risk for government-sponsored degradation, misery, and death. Crimmigrant Nations examines the parallel rise of anti-immigrant sentiment and right-wing populism in both the United States and Europe to offer an unprecedented look at this issue on an international level.
Beginning with the fears and concerns of immigration that predate the election of Trump, the Brexit vote, and the signing and implementation of the Schengen Agreement, Crimmigrant Nations critically analyzes nationalist state policies in countries that have criminalized migrants and categorized them as threats to national security. Highlighting a pressing and perplexing problem facing the Western world in 2020 and beyond, this collection of essays illustrates not only how anti-immigrant sentiments and nationalist discourse are on the rise in various Western liberal democracies, but also how these sentiments are being translated into punitive and cruel policies and practices that contribute to a merger of crime control and migration control with devastating effects for those falling under its reach. Mapping out how these measures are taken, the rationale behind these policies, and who is subjected to exclusion as a result of these measures, Crimmigrant Nations looks beyond the level of the
local or the national to the relational dynamics between different actors on different levels and among different institutions.

Hidden Out in the Open: Spanish Migration to the United States (1875-1930)
By Phylis Cancilla Martinelli and Ana Varela-Lago
University Press of Colorado, 312 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 1607327988, $73.14
[link removed]
Paperback, ISBN: 1646420438, $27.00
[link removed]
Kindle, 4145 KB, B07MJWXG53, $17.00
Book Description: Hidden Out in the Open is the first English-language volume on Spanish migration to the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This panoramic study covers a period defined by the crucial transformations of the Progressive Era in the United States, and by similarly momentous changes in Spain following the Restoration of the Bourbon monarchy under Alfonso XII.
The chapters in this volume are geographically wide-ranging, reflecting the transnational nature of the Spanish diaspora in the Americas, encompassing networks that connected Spain, Cuba, Latin American countries, the United States, and American-controlled territories in Hawai’i and Panama. The geographic diversity reveals the different jobs immigrants engaged in, from construction gangs in the Panama Canal to mining crews in Arizona and West Virginia. Contributors analyze the Spanish experience in the United States from a variety of perspectives, discussing rural and urban enclaves, the role of the state, and the political mobilization of migrants, using a range of methodological approaches that examine ethnicity, race, gender, and cultural practices through the lenses of sociology, history, and cultural studies.
The mention of the Spanish influence in the United States often conjures up images of conquistadores and padres of old. Forgotten in this account are the Spanish immigrants who reached American shores in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Hidden Out in the Open reveals the role of the modern migration of Spaniards in this "land of immigrants" and rectifies the erasure of Spain in the American narrative. The book will be of interest to scholars and students of US history and the history of modern Spain and Europe, as well as those interested ethnic and migration/diaspora studies, Hispanic/Latino studies, and the study of working class and radicalism.

Contemporary European Emigration: Situating Integration in New Destinations
By Brigitte Suter and Lisa Åkesson
Routledge, 176 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 0367193752, $130.97
[link removed]
Kindle, 1049 KB, ASIN: B084SMJZ69, $49.95
Book Description: At a time when European unity is politically challenged by the question of immigration and integration, it is easy to overlook the fact that there are significant numbers of Europeans leaving the continent. Academically, little is known about why Europeans leave the continent, how they chose their destination, and how they experience their migrant life. Drawing on the lived experiences of contemporary European emigrants from a range of different countries, this book sheds light on how global economic, political and social transformations spur new forms of migration and mobility experiences.
Contemporary European Emigration explores how Europeans experience economic, cultural or social integration, and the power relations which play out between them and their hosts. By delving through the lenses of national and racial identity, gender, age, and profession, this book provides enticing insights into how Europeans see themselves in the world.
By shifting our focus to migrants leaving Europe and observing the emerging challenges to European superiority as they play out in the microlevel of people’s everyday lives, this book provides a nuanced understanding of contemporary migration. Researchers within Migration Studies and European Studies will find this book an important addition to the literature.

The Readmission of Asylum Seekers under International Law
By Mariagiulia Giuffré
Hart Publishing, 408 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 150990249X, $95.64
[link removed]
Kindle, 1192 KB, ASIN: B083ZT7V9S, $90.45
Book Description: This monograph could not be more timely, as discourses relating to refugees' access to territory, rescue at sea, push-back, and push-back by proxy dominate political debate. Looking at the questions which lie at the junction of migration control and refugee law standards, it explores the extent to which readmission can hamper refugees' access to protection. Though it draws mainly on European law, notably the European Convention on Human Rights, it also examines other international frameworks, including those employed by the United Nations and instruments such as the Refugee Convention. Therefore, this book is of importance to readers of international law, refugee law, human rights and migration studies at the global level. It offers an analysis of both the legal and policy questions at play, and engages fully with widely-disputed cases concerning readmission agreements, deportation with assurances and interception at sea. By so doing, this book seeks to clarify a complex
field which has at times suffered from partiality in both its terminology and substance.

Judicial Review of Immigration Detention in the UK, US and EU From: Principles to Practice
By Justine N Stefanelli
Hart Publishing, 248 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 1509930450, $75.50
[link removed]
Kindle, 8404 KB, ASIN: B082FWMS2H, $90.00
Book Description: Immigration detention is considered by many states to be a necessary tool in the execution of immigration policy. Despite the apparently key role it plays in immigration enforcement, the law on immigration detention is often vague, especially in relation to determining the circumstances under which prolonged detention remains lawful. As a result, the courts are frequently called upon to adjudicate these matters, with scant legal tools at their disposal. Though there have been some significant judgments on the legality of detention at the constitutional level, the extent to which these judgments have had an impact at the lower end of the judiciary is unclear. Indeed, it is the lower courts which are tasked with judging the legality of detention through habeas corpus or judicial review proceedings.
This book examines the way this has occurred in the lower courts of two jurisdictions, the UK and the US, and contrasts this practice not only in those jurisdictions, but with judgments rendered by the Court of Justice of the European Union, a constitutional court at the other end of the judicial spectrum whose judgments are applied by courts and tribunals in the EU Member States. Although these three jurisdictions use similar tests to evaluate the legality of detention, case outcomes significantly differ. Many factors contribute to this divergence, but key among them is the role that fundamental rights protection plays in each jurisdiction. Through a forensic evaluation of 191 judgments, this book compares the laws on detention in the UK, US and EU, and makes recommendations to these jurisdictions for improvement.

[link removed]
Holding: (1) A Bivens remedy is not available when there are "special factors counselling hesitation in the absence of affirmative action by Congress," and the court recently clarified in Ziglar v. Abbasi what constitutes a special factor counselling hesitation; the court of appeals should consider how the reasoning and analysis in Ziglar bear on the question whether the parents of a victim shot by a U.S. Border Patrol agent may recover damages for his death; (2) It would be imprudent for the Supreme Court to decide Jesus Hernandez’s Fourth Amendment claim when, in light of the intervening guidance provided in Abbasi, doing so may be unnecessary to resolve this particular case; and (3) with respect to Hernandez’s Fifth Amendment claim, because it is undisputed that the victim's nationality and the extent of his ties to the United States were unknown to the agent at the time of the shooting, the en banc court of appeals erred in granting qualified immunity based on those facts.
Judgment: Vacated and remanded in a per curiam opinion on June 26, 2017. Justice Thomas filed a dissenting opinion. Justice Breyer filed a dissenting opinion, in which Justice Ginsburg joined. Justice Gorsuch took no part in the consideration or decision of this case.

Employment among immigrants, register-based
Statistics Norway, March 2, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary:
67.1% of the immigrants aged 20-66 years are employed Q4 2019
+++
Population growth at 39,400 in 2019
As 2020 began, Norway’s population stood at 5,367,580. Population growth for 2019 came in at 39,400.
February 27, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary:
Stable immigration count, fewer births
After the number of immigrations spiked at 79,500 in 2011, it fell quickly in the following years. In 2018, the number was 52,500, whereas the number for 2019 was 52,200. Such a meagre reduction in the number of immigrations has rarely occurred after 2011, when the recent norm has been annual declines in the thousands.
Net immigration for 2019 came in at 25,300, which is a big rise from 2018’s figure of 18,100. Do note, though, that much of this increase is due to special circumstances with regards to the registering of emigrations in 2019. These resulted in the registering of about 5,000 fewer emigrations than would have been the case under normal circumstances and relate to non-Nordic EEA citizens.

[link removed]
Summary: According to Statistics Finland's preliminary data, Finland's population was 5,528,442 at the end of January. Our country's population increased by 869 persons during January.

According to the preliminary statistics for January, 2,231 persons immigrated to Finland from abroad and 1,104 persons emigrated from Finland. The number of immigrants was 569 lower and the number of emigrants 268 lower than in the corresponding period of the previous year. In all, 636 of the immigrants and 739 of the emigrants were Finnish citizens.

Health and nursing care: number of recognised foreign professional qualifications nearly doubled from 2016 to 2018
Qualifications from Syria recognised most often for physicians
Federal Statistical Office of Germany, March 2, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary: The German health and nursing care system is facing a skilled labour shortage. To reduce this shortage, employers are searching also for skilled labour from abroad. In 2018 alone, the professional qualifications of 10,350 nurses from abroad were recognised in Germany. With regard to the new Skilled Immigration Act, the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) also reports that the number of qualified nursing staff was thus nearly twice as high as two years earlier (2016: 5,600).
In all of Germany, 36,400 foreign professional qualifications were recognised in 2018. The qualifications recognised were most often those of nurses (28.4%).

Migrant integration: overcrowding rate
Eurostat, February 28, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Summary: In the European Union (EU), 35% of non-EU citizens were living in overcrowded households in 2018, meaning they did not have the number of rooms appropriate to the size of the household. By contrast, this rate was 17% for nationals and 20% for foreign EU citizens (i.e. EU citizens residing in another EU country).
Among EU Member States, the overcrowding rate recorded for non-EU citizens was the highest in Bulgaria (60%), Croatia (59%), Poland (56 %), Greece (55%) and Italy (54%). The lowest rates were observed in Malta (8%) and Cyprus (5%).
For foreign EU citizens, the overcrowding rate was highest in Greece and Italy (both 45%). In Malta there was not a significant number of foreign EU citizens living in overcrowded households in 2018.
The highest overcrowding rates for nationals were recorded in Romania (47%), Bulgaria (44%), Latvia (42%) and Croatia (41%), while the lowest were in Cyprus (2%) and Ireland (1%).

Summary: 2019 was an important year for Frontex, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency. It was significant because for the first time we launched a large operation outside the European Union, in Albania. It was a leap towards becoming an essential player in keeping Europe’s citizens safe by securing our borders, even beyond the EU. It was also a transitional year as we began to prepare the ground for the creation of the European Border and Coast Guard standing corps that will also consist of the first European uniformed service.

Excerpt: Little changed from week to week is the sizable 68% who feel the government should mandate that employers use the federal electronic E-Verify system to help ensure they hire only legal workers for U.S. jobs. Twenty-one percent (21%) disagree, while 11% are undecided.
Also generally unchanged from past surveys is the 57% of voters who favor giving lifetime work permits to most of the approximately two million illegal residents who came to this country when they were minors, with 34% who Strongly Favor. Thirty-six percent (36%) are opposed, including 18% who are Strongly Opposed.
But just 44% favor giving lifetime work permits to most of the estimated 12 million illegal residents of all ages who currently reside in the United States, with 22% who Strongly Favor it. Forty-nine percent (49%) remain opposed, including 30% who are Strongly Opposed.
Legal immigration has averaged around a million annually in recent years, but 45% of voters believe the government should be adding no more than 750,000 new immigrants each year, with 32% who say it should be fewer than 500,000. Thirty-eight percent (38%) favor adding one million or more legal newcomers per year, including 11% who say the figure should be higher than 1.5 million. Sixteen percent (16%) are not sure.

Public Charge Law is Rarely Used to Deport Immigrants—Is That About to Change?
February 28, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Excerpt:
Less Than Half of All Public Charge Cases are Sustained in Immigration Court
Out of 4.7 million Immigration Court cases completed from October 1995 to January 2020, only 13,096 cited public charge statutes on the Notice to Appear (NTA) filed by DHS as a basis for the government seeking removal of the individual. Thus the usage of allegedly becoming a public charge as grounds for removal is also exceedingly rare in court proceedings. Court case-by-case records indicate that public charge grounds were cited in only 28 out of every 10,000 cases (0.28%), and were sustained in only 13 out of every 10,000 cases (0.13%). See Tables 2 and 3 at the end of this report.
When DHS does bring "public charge" charges against immigrants in court, it is usually cited along with other violations of the immigration rules. Only 10 percent of the time is it the sole charge. So reliance upon concerns that the immigrant is likely to become, or has become, a public charge as the sole reason for seeking removal are even rarer.
Finally, the records show that when the "public charge" rules are cited as the basis for seeking removal it is sustained less than half of the time (46%). When a "public charge" violation is the sole basis for seeking removal, it is sustained more often—71 percent of the time.
ICE Sends Detainers to 3,671 Law Enforcement Agencies in FY 2019
February 24, 2020
. . .
[link removed]
Excerpt:
A total of 3,671 law enforcement agencies (LEAs) were sent detainers by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials during fiscal year 2019. This figure is based on the latest detainer-by-detainer internal ICE records obtained and analyzed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University. ICE issues detainers asking local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to hold individuals up to 48 hours[1] in order to give ICE time to take them into custody and initiate deportation steps. ICE views detainers as a foundation of its Secure Communities program. According to its records, ICE sent detainers to LEAs in 2,158 counties in all 50 states.
Despite the large number of LEAs that received ICE detainer requests last year, the receipt of a request to turn someone the agency had taken into custody over to ICE was a relatively unusual event for most. A third (34%) of these law enforcement agencies received no more than three such requests during all of last year. About one in six (16%) received just a single detainer request.

Crimmigrant Nations: Resurgent Nationalism and the Closing of Borders

Kindle, $33.99, ASIN: B07V6ZPVQT
Book Description: As the distinction between domestic and international is increasingly blurred along with the line between internal and external borders, migrants―particularly people of color―have become emblematic of the hybrid threat both to national security and sovereignty and to safety and order inside the state. From building walls and fences, overcrowding detention facilities, and beefing up border policing and border controls, a new narrative has arrived that has migrants assume the risk for government-sponsored degradation, misery, and death. Crimmigrant Nations examines the parallel rise of anti-immigrant sentiment and right-wing populism in both the United States and Europe to offer an unprecedented look at this issue on an international level.
Beginning with the fears and concerns of immigration that predate the election of Trump, the Brexit vote, and the signing and implementation of the Schengen Agreement, Crimmigrant Nations critically analyzes nationalist state policies in countries that have criminalized migrants and categorized them as threats to national security. Highlighting a pressing and perplexing problem facing the Western world in 2020 and beyond, this collection of essays illustrates not only how anti-immigrant sentiments and nationalist discourse are on the rise in various Western liberal democracies, but also how these sentiments are being translated into punitive and cruel policies and practices that contribute to a merger of crime control and migration control with devastating effects for those falling under its reach. Mapping out how these measures are taken, the rationale behind these policies, and who is subjected to exclusion as a result of these measures, Crimmigrant Nations looks beyond the level of the
local or the national to the relational dynamics between different actors on different levels and among different institutions.

Hidden Out in the Open: Spanish Migration to the United States (1875-1930)
By Phylis Cancilla Martinelli and Ana Varela-Lago
University Press of Colorado, 312 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 1607327988, $73.14
[link removed]
Paperback, ISBN: 1646420438, $27.00
[link removed]
Kindle, 4145 KB, B07MJWXG53, $17.00
Book Description: Hidden Out in the Open is the first English-language volume on Spanish migration to the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This panoramic study covers a period defined by the crucial transformations of the Progressive Era in the United States, and by similarly momentous changes in Spain following the Restoration of the Bourbon monarchy under Alfonso XII.
The chapters in this volume are geographically wide-ranging, reflecting the transnational nature of the Spanish diaspora in the Americas, encompassing networks that connected Spain, Cuba, Latin American countries, the United States, and American-controlled territories in Hawai’i and Panama. The geographic diversity reveals the different jobs immigrants engaged in, from construction gangs in the Panama Canal to mining crews in Arizona and West Virginia. Contributors analyze the Spanish experience in the United States from a variety of perspectives, discussing rural and urban enclaves, the role of the state, and the political mobilization of migrants, using a range of methodological approaches that examine ethnicity, race, gender, and cultural practices through the lenses of sociology, history, and cultural studies.
The mention of the Spanish influence in the United States often conjures up images of conquistadores and padres of old. Forgotten in this account are the Spanish immigrants who reached American shores in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Hidden Out in the Open reveals the role of the modern migration of Spaniards in this "land of immigrants" and rectifies the erasure of Spain in the American narrative. The book will be of interest to scholars and students of US history and the history of modern Spain and Europe, as well as those interested ethnic and migration/diaspora studies, Hispanic/Latino studies, and the study of working class and radicalism.

Contemporary European Emigration: Situating Integration in New Destinations
By Brigitte Suter and Lisa Åkesson
Routledge, 176 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 0367193752, $130.97
[link removed]
Kindle, 1049 KB, ASIN: B084SMJZ69, $49.95
Book Description: At a time when European unity is politically challenged by the question of immigration and integration, it is easy to overlook the fact that there are significant numbers of Europeans leaving the continent. Academically, little is known about why Europeans leave the continent, how they chose their destination, and how they experience their migrant life. Drawing on the lived experiences of contemporary European emigrants from a range of different countries, this book sheds light on how global economic, political and social transformations spur new forms of migration and mobility experiences.
Contemporary European Emigration explores how Europeans experience economic, cultural or social integration, and the power relations which play out between them and their hosts. By delving through the lenses of national and racial identity, gender, age, and profession, this book provides enticing insights into how Europeans see themselves in the world.
By shifting our focus to migrants leaving Europe and observing the emerging challenges to European superiority as they play out in the microlevel of people’s everyday lives, this book provides a nuanced understanding of contemporary migration. Researchers within Migration Studies and European Studies will find this book an important addition to the literature.

The Readmission of Asylum Seekers under International Law
By Mariagiulia Giuffré
Hart Publishing, 408 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 150990249X, $95.64
[link removed]
Kindle, 1192 KB, ASIN: B083ZT7V9S, $90.45
Book Description: This monograph could not be more timely, as discourses relating to refugees' access to territory, rescue at sea, push-back, and push-back by proxy dominate political debate. Looking at the questions which lie at the junction of migration control and refugee law standards, it explores the extent to which readmission can hamper refugees' access to protection. Though it draws mainly on European law, notably the European Convention on Human Rights, it also examines other international frameworks, including those employed by the United Nations and instruments such as the Refugee Convention. Therefore, this book is of importance to readers of international law, refugee law, human rights and migration studies at the global level. It offers an analysis of both the legal and policy questions at play, and engages fully with widely-disputed cases concerning readmission agreements, deportation with assurances and interception at sea. By so doing, this book seeks to clarify a complex
field which has at times suffered from partiality in both its terminology and substance.

Judicial Review of Immigration Detention in the UK, US and EU From: Principles to Practice
By Justine N Stefanelli
Hart Publishing, 248 pp.
Hardcover, ISBN: 1509930450, $75.50
[link removed]
Kindle, 8404 KB, ASIN: B082FWMS2H, $90.00
Book Description: Immigration detention is considered by many states to be a necessary tool in the execution of immigration policy. Despite the apparently key role it plays in immigration enforcement, the law on immigration detention is often vague, especially in relation to determining the circumstances under which prolonged detention remains lawful. As a result, the courts are frequently called upon to adjudicate these matters, with scant legal tools at their disposal. Though there have been some significant judgments on the legality of detention at the constitutional level, the extent to which these judgments have had an impact at the lower end of the judiciary is unclear. Indeed, it is the lower courts which are tasked with judging the legality of detention through habeas corpus or judicial review proceedings.
This book examines the way this has occurred in the lower courts of two jurisdictions, the UK and the US, and contrasts this practice not only in those jurisdictions, but with judgments rendered by the Court of Justice of the European Union, a constitutional court at the other end of the judicial spectrum whose judgments are applied by courts and tribunals in the EU Member States. Although these three jurisdictions use similar tests to evaluate the legality of detention, case outcomes significantly differ. Many factors contribute to this divergence, but key among them is the role that fundamental rights protection plays in each jurisdiction. Through a forensic evaluation of 191 judgments, this book compares the laws on detention in the UK, US and EU, and makes recommendations to these jurisdictions for improvement.
