| Research Abstract |
In the first year of this project, I explored how Chinese migrants in the late-nineteenth-century America were constituted as a"threat"to security of the nation and the series of exclusion laws that were enacted against them. The securitization of migration and the failed counter-securitization movement by migrants can be understood in the context of the competition between federal sovereignty and state sovereignty, which took place because of American expansionism.
In the second year, I expanded the scope of my research in terms of time period, group and regions. I examined how undocumented immigrants from Latin America are constructed as a"threat"to the United States and its people, and the counter-securitization movements taking place now.
