Inside the State: The Bracero Program, Immigration, and the I.N.S.
ISBN: 9780982750483 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The recognized socio-legal study of the Bracero labor program, why it failed, and what that means to immigration policy and organizational theory. Professor Calavita unearthed long-buried INS and Congressional records, and conducted extensive personal interviews of the people involved, to figure out why this program of temporary farmworkers, which dominated for more than two decades in the Southwest U.S., ultimately collapsed. Her findings say a lot about the catch-22 of migration and labor, as well as refuting stereotypic political theory of agency "capture" to explain the program's demise....

Immigrants at the Margins: Law, Race, and Exclusion in Southern Europe
ISBN: 9780521609128 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This provocative volume explores immigration law in Spain and Italy, and exposes the tension between the temporary legal status of most immigrants, and the government emphasis on integration. It demonstrates the connections among immigrants' role as cheap labor--carefully inscribed in law--and their social exclusion and racialization. At the broadest level, the book engages questions of citizenship and belonging in this global era. It uniquely combines analysis of immigration laws and immigrants' daily experiences.

Invitation to Law and Society, Second Edition: An Introduction to the Study of Real Law
ISBN: 9780226296586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Law and society is a rapidly growing field that turns the conventional view of law as mythical abstraction on its head. Kitty Calavita brilliantly brings to life the ways in which law is found not only in statutes and courtrooms but in our institutions and interactions, while inviting readers into conversations that introduce the field's dominant themes and most lively disagreements. Deftly interweaving scholarship with familiar examples, Calavita shows how scholars in the discipline are collectively engaged in a subversive expose of law's public mythology. While surveying prominent issues...

ISBN: 9780520219472 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 281 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At a cost of $500 billion to American taxpayers, the savings and loan debacle of the 1980s was the worst financial crisis of the twentieth century as well as a crime unparalleled in American history. Yet the vast majority of its perpetrators will never be prosecuted, and those who were have received minimal sentences. In the first in-depth scrutiny of the ways and means of this disaster, this groundbreaking book comes to disturbing conclusions about the deliberate nature of this financial fraud, the political collusion involved, and the leniency of the criminal justice system in dealing with...

Having gained unique access to California prisoners and corrections officials and to thousands of prisoners' written grievances and institutional responses, Kitty Calavita and Valerie Jenness take us inside one of the most significant, yet largely invisible, institutions in the United States. Drawing on sometimes startlingly candid interviews with prisoners and prison staff, as well as on official records, the authors walk us through the byzantine grievance process, which begins with prisoners filing claims and ends after four levels of review, with corrections officials usually denying...

Globalization Under Construction : Govermentality, Law, and Identity
ISBN: 9780816639656 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The future outlines of the new global order are the constant object of speculation--economic, political, and metaphysical. From the sunny new world proclaimed by global free marketers to the rebellion against globalization unleashed in the streets of Seattle and Genoa, to the doomsdays envisioned by transnational terrorists and counterterrorists alike, this emerging global-millennial epoch is foretold alternately as redemption or apocalypse. The authors consider these sweeping descriptions of humankind's future, as well as the discourses of globalization that filter and frame them, from...
