DESCRIPTION:Winner, 2017 Oliver Cromwell Cox Book Award\n\nA thorough and captivating 
 exploration of how mass incarceration and law and order policies of the 
 past forty years have transformed immigration and border enforcement\n 
 \nCriminal prosecutions for immigration offenses have more than doubled 
 over the last two decades, as national debates about immigration and 
 criminal justice reforms became headline topics. What lies behind this 
 unprecedented increase?\nFrom Deportation to Prison unpacks how the 
 incarceration of over two million people in the United States gave impetus 
 to a federal immigration initiative—The Criminal Alien Program 
 (CAP)—designed to purge non-citizens from dangerously overcrowded jails 
 and prisons. Drawing on over a decade of ethnographic and archival 
 research, the findings in this book reveal how the Criminal Alien Program 
 quietly set off a punitive turn in immigration enforcement that has 
 fundamentally altered detention, deportation, and criminal prosecutions for 
 immigration offenses.\n\nPatrisia Macías-Rojas presents a 
 “street-level” perspective on how this new regime has serious lived 
 implications for the day-to-day actions of Border Patrol agents, local law 
 enforcement, civil and human rights advocates, and for migrants and 
 residents of predominantly Latina/o border communities.\n
