The Border Within. The Economics of Immigration in an Age of Fear.

"The Border Within: The Economics of Immigration in an Age of Fear" by Tara Watson and Kalee Thompson is a comprehensive analysis of the costs and benefits of interior immigration enforcement in the United States. The authors present a balanced and accurate picture of immigration and immigration policy, highlighting the devastating costs to individual immigrants, their families, and their communities. The book is divided into three sections, covering the economic implications of immigration, the interior enforcement policies of ICE, and the impact of enforcement on immigrants and their communities. The authors provide evidence that poorly educated U.S. residents are most affected by immigration, and they offer practical recommendations for a more humane and effective enforcement strategy.
