{"product_id":"socially-undocumented","title":"Socially Undocumented","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat does it really mean to be \"undocumented,\" particularly in the contemporary United States? Political philosophers, immigration policy makers, and others have tended to define the term \"undocumented migrant\" legalistically-that is, in terms of lacking legal authorization to live and work in one's current country of residence. In Socially Undocumented, Reed-Sandoval challenges this \"legalistic understanding\" by arguing that being socially undocumented is\n\u003cbr\u003eto possess a real, visible, and embodied social identity that does not always track one's legal status. She further argues that achieving immigration justice in the U.S. (and elsewhere) requires a philosophical\n\u003cbr\u003eunderstanding of the racialized, class-based, and gendered components of socially undocumented identity and oppression.  Socially Undocumented offers a new vision of immigration justice by integrating a descriptive and phenomenological account of socially undocumented identity with a normative and political account of how the oppression with which it is associated ought to be dealt with as a matter of social justice. It also addresses concrete ethical challenges\n\u003cbr\u003esuch as the question of whether open borders are morally required, the militarization of the Mexico-U.S. border, the perilous journey that many migrants undertake to get to the United States, the difficult\n\u003cbr\u003eexperiences of the women who cross U.S. borders seeking prenatal care while pregnant, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44061803413742,"sku":"9780190619800","price":240.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780190619800.jpg?v=1706251167","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/socially-undocumented","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
