Since the attacks of 9/11, the United States has steadily ramped up security along the U.S.-Mexico border, transforming America?s legendary Southwest into a frontier of fear. Veteran journalist Peter Eichstaedt roams this fabled region from Tucson, Arizona, to El Paso, Texas, meeting with migrants, border security advocates, and communities ravaged by cross-border crime. He rides with the border patrol and reveals the tragic situation that has evolved along the border. Eichstaedt finds that despite tens of thousands of border agents and the expenditure of billions of dollars, an estimated one million Mexicans and Central Americans continue to cross the border each year. These migrants fill jobs that have become the underpinnings of the U.S. economy. Rather than building more and better barricades, Eichstaedt argues that the United States must reform its immigration and drug laws and acknowledge that costly, counterproductive, and antiquated policies have created deadly circumstances on both sides of the border. Recognizing the truth of America?s long and tortured relations with Mexico must be followed by legitimizing the contributions made by migrants to the American way of life."-from eBook Central 606 $aUndocumented immigrants$zUnited States 606 $aCrime$zMexican-American Border Region 606 $aBorder security$zMexican-American Border Region 607 $aMexican-American Border Region 607 $aUnited States$xEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy 607 $aMexico$xEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUndocumented immigrants 615 0$aCrime 615 0$aBorder security 676 $a364.1/370973 700 $aEichstaedt$b Peter$f1947-$0927762 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464921103321 996 $aThe dangerous divide$92084462 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04246nam 22007815 450 001 9910298507703321 005 20250609111435.0 010 $a3-319-15624-1 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-15624-8 035 $a(CKB)3710000000402733 035 $a(EBL)2094417 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001500730 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11967977 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001500730 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11520520 035 $a(PQKB)11274610 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-15624-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC2094417 035 $a(PPN)185485472 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3109837 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000402733 100 $a20150417d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGlobal Challenges and the Emerging World Order /$fby Giulio Sapelli 205 $a1st ed. 2015. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2015. 215 $a1 online resource (83 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a3-319-15623-3 327 $aAcknowledgements -- The terrible August 2013 -- The start of the Mediterranean crisis -- The world?s economic crisis -- The chickens have come home to roost -- The old and new convergence -- Responding to strategic divergence -- Fossil hydrocarbons and the fragmentation of growth -- The future will be African -- Emerging from the crisis in Europe: changing Europe. 330 $aThis book offers a fascinating overview of the challenges posed by the world?s new geostrategic order and likely future directions. It opens with an unconventional view of the Arab Spring, identifying its origins in the relative US withdrawal from the Middle East caused by both the need for military disengagement for economic reasons and the discovery of shale gas and tight oil in the heart of the North American continent. The rise in the geostrategic importance of Putin?s Russia is explored in this context. The implications of the worldwide economic crisis are analyzed in depth: the author?s interpretation is that the world is entering a phase of unstable growth generated by hyperfinancialization and deflation. Against this background, the book explores the US attempt to trigger growth through the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, the impact of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (based on the US-Australia military alliance) in restraining China?s advance, and the potential for Africa to become the driver of the world?s economic future if it can resist Chinese penetration and continue the nation-building process. 606 $aEconomics 606 $aEconomics 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aPopular Science in Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q34000 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aInternational Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33000 606 $aEconomic Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J12000 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 14$aPopular Science in Economics. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aInternational Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Geography. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 676 $a330 676 $a330.9 676 $a333.79 676 $a337 676 $a338926 676 $a339.5 700 $aSapelli$b Giulio$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0116236 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298507703321 996 $aGlobal Challenges and the Emerging World Order$92510017 997 $aUNINA
