Recently you wrote a Annotated Bibliography for me. A paper wrote on the resources in the Bibliography. Attached is the Annotated Bibliography and the work cited page. MLA, double spaced, New Times Roman, and 12 font. Name Name English 102 Annotated Bibliography March 18, 2019 Illegal Immigration in the U.S. Hanson, Gordon Howard. The economics and policy of illegal immigration in the United States. Washington, DC: Migration Policy Institute, 2009. This is an official source, the primary objective of which is to not only offer an extensive outline of the challenges that are connected to immigration in the United States but also address these issues from the point of view of the homeland security. In addition, the author of the source ‘The economics and policy of illegal immigration in the United States’ offers his unique insight regarding other pressing issues, which arise in the United States as a result of immigration from the economic standpoint, as well as the costs, benefits, incentives, and disincentives that come as a direct result of the illegal immigration into the country in the framework of the economic analysis (Hanson 14). Hollifield, James, Philip L. Martin, and Pia Orrenius, eds. Controlling immigration: A global perspective. Stanford University Press, 2014. This source offers recent, systematic, and comparative evaluations of the numerous attempts of the developed countries, which includes the United States, of handling the pressing issue of immigration. The authors of the research ‘Controlling immigration: A global perspective’ aim the attention of the readers, the policy makers, and the government officials towards the constantly growing disparities between the migration policies of the country, their objectives in this field, and the resulting consequences (Hollifield, Martin, and Orrenius 20). This research can be used in order to trace the global trends in dealing with illegal immigration in the developed countries. Massey, Douglas S., and Karen A. Pren. “Unintended consequences of US immigration policy: Explaining the post‐1965 surge from Latin America.” Population and development review 38.1 (2012): 1-29. This study explores the issue of illegal immigration from the Latin America into the United States, making the conclusions that can be applied to the modern day as well. According to the authors of the research ‘Unintended consequences of US immigration policy: Explaining the post‐1965 surge from Latin America’, the year 1965 is marked as the beginning of the widespread illegal immigration of the Latin population into the United States for the reason that the new amendments were implemented as an instrument of alleviating the racist connotations in the immigration policies of the country (Massey and Pren 1). As a result of these changes, the bigger percentage of the immigrants stated the changes in the social and cultural immigration agendas. Sampson, Robert J. “Rethinking crime and immigration.” Contexts 7.1 (2008): 28-33. In the modern day, the issue of illegal immigration is closely related to the crime levels and job retention in the minds of the policy makers and the general population of the country. The author of the research ‘Rethinking crime and immigration’ explores the events of the summer of 2007 in the United States, which has initiated the increase in the hatred towards the illegal immigrants on the basis of their undocumented and unevidenced-based homicidal practices (Sampson 29). On the other hand, in reality, the connection between the crime and illegal immigration is the opposite, as the recent research in this field demonstrates, contributing to the decrease in the crime rates in the long run. Valentino, Nicholas A., Ted Brader, and Ashley E. Jardina. “Immigration opposition among US Whites: General ethnocentrism or media priming of attitudes about Latinos.” Political Psychology 34.2 (2013): 149-166. The authors of this study aim the attention of the readers towards the phenomenon of general ethnocentrism and the group-specific ethnocentrism, which are directly related to the issue of immigration in the United States (Valentino, Brader, and Jardina 150). The source ‘Immigration opposition among US Whites: General ethnocentrism or media priming of attitudes about Latinos?’ claims that all the attention that is devoted to the illegal immigration in the media is based on the immigration of a specific ethnic and cultural group, which includes the Latino population. Based on this, a conclusion can be made that the means of mass media create an agenda for the members of the general population, profiling the illegal immigrants into one group with similar features.
