Crime Victimization in Latin America and Intentions to Migrate to the United States

Among the challenges faced by Latin America at the onset of the 21st century is the increase in crime and violence that began in the mid-1980s, and which, to one degree or another, has afflicted most countries in the region. In this study we explore the potential implications of the upsurge in crime on migration by testing the hypothesis that crime victimization in Latin America increases the probability that people have given serious thought to the prospect of migrating with their families to the United States. Using Latinobarometro public opinion surveys of approximately 49,000 respondents residing in 17 countries in 2002, 2003, and 2004, the results of a Hierarchical Generalized Linear Model found that, net of individual and country-level control variables, the probability of seriously considering family migration to the United States was around 30 percent higher among respondents who reported that they or a member of their family was a victim of a crime sometime during the year prior to the survey. Evidence that victimization promotes the propensity to emigrate is a finding that contributes to an understanding of the transnational consequences of the increase in crime in Latin America, and adds a new variable to the inventory of factors that encourage people to migrate to the United States.

Immigration politics by proxy: state agency in an era of national reluctance

ABSTRACT

While attempts to reform immigration policy have stalled in the U.S. Congress, statehouses across the country are responsible for an explosion in immigration lawmaking. This study uses an intergovernmental relations framework to identify shifting allocations of authority and contested scales of jurisdiction that now characterise the U.S. immigration policy. It presents an analysis of more than 2200 state bills passed over eight years (2006–2013), and supplements this with a case study of drivers’ licence and identification laws. The study is unique in its consideration of the ways that dispersed authority in multi-level systems may amplify rather than defuse contentious immigration politics.

随着社会现代化程度的提高 ,产业结构的调整 ,行业分工越来越细 ,就业形式日趋复杂。各种分散的、零星的、自由的就业模式随处可见 ,正如许多理论文章中所提“我国目前传统的占绝对主流的正规就业模式日益被正规就业与非正规就业的二元化就业模式所取代”。然而到底什么是非正规就业 ?非正规就业是否就是在非正规部门的就业 ?实际中如何测量它 ?这些问题在理论界至今仍有一些不同的观点 ,而概念界定的模糊 ,不仅直接影响到劳动就业、经济总量等的统计的准确性 ,也不利于解决目前劳动就业领域的诸多问题。本文在基于国内外各种解释的基础上对…
