This study focuses on how Mexican Federations of HTAs have negotiated their formal membership in Mexico and the United States. In Mexico, migrants' market citizenship opened the channels of communication between Federations of HTAs, and the Mexican government. Once those channels were established; HTA Federation leaders were able to negotiate their passage from market to formal membership. In the case of the United States, HTA Federations have advocated for a formal inclusion in the United States, by organizing marches, lobbying and writing to their representatives and by emphasizing their economic contributions to the U.S. society in their discourse. However, these strategies have proven partially ineffective. Nonetheless, Federation leaders have sought other strategies of inclusion at the local level by emphasizing the value of migrants as market citizens, encouraging migrants to show "good character" in order to be seen as "less illegal," and through civic activities.

The migration problem is the most burning issue of our time. Military conflicts in many countries lead to global political instability in international relations. The inability of countries to provide a decent standard of living is one of the most common factors pushing people to seek a better life abroad. The conflict in the eastern part of Ukraine has a strong influence on the increased migration. lt was the cause ot the outtlow of labor and skilled workers trom Ukraine. The military conflict in Luhansk and Donetsk regions is not officially declared as war. ; Göç sorunu, çağımızın en dikkat çeken sorunudur. Pek çok ülkedeki askeri sorunlar, uluslararası ilişkilerde küresel siyasi istikrarsızlığa neden olmaktadır, Ülkelerin iyi bir yaşam standardı sunamamaları, insanları yurtdışında daha iyi bir hayat aramaya iten en yaygın faktörlerden biridir. Ukrayna'nın doğusundaki çatışma, artan göç üzerinde güçlü bir etkiye sahiptir. Bu çatışma, işgücünün ve vasıflı işçilerin Ukrayna'dan ayrılmasının sebebi olmuştur. Luhansk ve Donetsk bölgelerindeki askeri çatışma resmiyette savaş olarak ilan edilmemiştir.

AbstractTo what extent do people become less trusting of the government under threatening policy contexts? The authors find evidence that Secure Communities, a bureaucratic program that enhances immigrant policing through collaboration between local law and immigration enforcement agencies, spurs mistrust among Latinos but not non‐Latinos. This article focuses on the politics of immigration and health, two issue areas marked by large‐scale bureaucratic developments over the last 50 years. The authors argue that a major consequence of expanding immigrant policing is its trickle‐down effect on how individuals view public institutions charged with the provision of public goods, such as health information. The results indicate that Latinos in locales where immigrant policing is most intense express lower levels of trust in government as a source of health information. Through a policy feedback lens, the findings suggest that the state's deployment of immigrant policing conveys more widespread lessons about the trustworthiness of government.

Abstract
In this article, I analyze the American flag as hijab both in the infamous "We the People" (2017) campaign poster by Shepard Fairey and its adaptation by Muslim girls and young women during protests against President Trump's inauguration and subsequent immigration policies (including the infamous Muslim Ban). Despite critical acclaim that hailed the American flag hijab largely as revolutionary, I argue that it embodies a symbolic visualization of a liberated Muslim woman figure that is central to the survival of American imperialism. Using frameworks that understand freedom shaped by neoliberal interests and interrogating the histories of the flag in both American immigration and colonial contexts, I demonstrate that the American flag as hijab for girls and women reinforces the larger constructs it seeks to resist.

This article explores the ways in which the debates about the Aliens Bill and the controversy surrounding British immigration policies confirmed Russian émigrés' identification as refugees and legitimised their anti-tsarist activities in the early twentieth century. It assesses how Russian émigrés made use of the British political crisis about immigration not only to protect their personal right to asylum, but also to advance their larger political and ideological perspectives about the illegitimacy of the Romanov regime. This article argues that the early twentieth-century transnational advocacy championing the right of asylum for Russian refugees in Britain explicitly established the moral and legal criteria used to define refugees outside of the context of war and justified the humanitarian necessity of political and religious asylum as an answer to governmental persecution.

This article discusses the Komagata Maru and calls it a --trial-- run to test the immigration laws in Canada. It also discusses the likelihood that the trip was intended as a surprise to Canadian and Imperial authorities, and if not for a chance discovery of a message sent through a cable from Shanghai, the Komagata Maru would have arrived in port with no notice. Finally the article discusses the Mrs. Besant--s criticisms of the Canadian and Australian governments for discriminating against immigrants based on race and the more popular Canadian public sentiment (as reported in the Province and Montreal Star) that supports the discriminatory immigration policies. ; Research project undertaken by the University of the Fraser Valley South Asian Studies Institute, formerly the Centre for Indo-Canadian Studies in 2015

After WW2 a Canadian immigration policy was negotiated with the UK whereby Polish ex-servicemen were resettled in Canada. With regard to the short- and long-term contributions the Poles made to agriculture, the scheme was a failure. (Abstract amended)

Immigration became a political concern after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Since then, states are implementing legislation that targets immigrant groups. In response, researchers have begun to investigate the consequences of immigration policies in the United States. For this special issue of Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy, the editors compiled a series of articles that highlight how the new political dynamics are influencing the lives of immigrants, often in reaction to Arizona SB 1070. This commentary summarizes the key topics discussed in the series of articles and provides suggestions for new research. It is proposed that prejudice towards immigrants is now "allowed" by the new social norms and that such prejudice produces new questions rarely addressed in the literature. The realities that some immigrants bring to the country (like reduced homicide rates) contrast the political rhetoric, and those distinctions provide great opportunities for research. In addition, the change brought about by large immigrant populations can influence self-perceptions of what many Americans consider the national identity, which is also rarely studied. This special issue provides a great step in this research endeavor, and it is proposed that there are multiple possible paths to productive research regarding prejudice towards immigrants.
