These temporary labor recruitment systems represented a state-brokered compromise between employers who wanted foreign workers and those who feared rising numbers of immigrants. Unlike immigrants, guestworkers couldn't settle, bring their families, or become citizens, and they had few rights. Indeed, instead of creating a manageable form of migration, guestworker programs created an especially vulnerable class of labor. Based on a vast array of sources from U.S., Jamaican, and English archives, as well as interviews, No Man's Land tells the history of the American "H2" program, the world's second oldest guestworker program. Since World War II, the H2 program has brought hundreds of thousands of mostly Jamaican men to the United States to do some of the nation's dirtiest and most dangerous farmwork for some of its biggest and most powerful agricultural corporations, companies that had the power to import and deport workers from abroad. Jamaican guestworkers occupied a no man's land between nations, protected neither by their home government nor by the United States. The workers complained, went on strike, and sued their employers in class action lawsuits, but their protests had little impact because they could be repatriated and replaced in a matter of hours. No Man's Land puts Jamaican guestworkers' experiences in the context of the global history of this fast-growing and perilous form of labor migration. 410 0$aPolitics and society in twentieth-century America. 606 $aForeign workers$zUnited States 606 $aForeign workers 606 $aNoncitizens 606 $aDeportation 607 $aJamaica$xEmigration and immigration 610 $a1960s. 610 $a1970s. 610 $a1980s. 610 $aBahamian workers. 610 $aCaribbean guestworker programs. 610 $aCaribbean guestworkers. 610 $aCuban Revolution. 610 $aEmergency Farm Labor Importation Program. 610 $aFlorida Rural Legal Services. 610 $aFlorida. 610 $aGreat Depression. 610 $aH2 program. 610 $aIRCA. 610 $aImmigration Reform and Control Act. 610 $aJamaican guestworkers. 610 $aJim Crow. 610 $aLeaford Williams. 610 $aLuther L.
