Immigrants make up the largest proportion of federal prisoners in the US, incarcerated in a vast network of more than two hundred detention facilities. This book investigates when detention became a centerpiece of US immigration policy. Detain and Punish reveals why the practice was reinstituted in 1981 and how the system expanded to become the world's largest immigration detention regime.
