Описание: "Inspiring and eye-opening..."-- *starred* Booklist review
"A compassionate and expert window into the netherworlds of immigration..."--Lauren Markham, author of The Far Away BrothersNow in paperback, with a new afterword by the author, an immigration lawyer's journalistic account of keeping American borders and dreams alive. In this powerful and personal narrative, a distinguished immigration lawyer guides us through the trials and terrors of modern immigration law. Beginning in a day in the life of an undocumented immigrant, Sepulveda proceedes through a processing intake and a heartwrenching court hearing. He takes us to a Texas border detention center where mothers and childen are essentially imprisoned, then on to New York's JFK airport during the weekend of Trump's infamous travel ban, where Sepulveda joined many other attorneys to provide pro bono legal counsel for passengers endangered with deportation. In this multi-faceted account of being on the front lines at one of the biggest crisis of our time, Sepulveda recounts growing up the son of a Latin American immigrant, his time in Spain as a Fulbright fellow to study Europe's ongoing migrant crisis and, in a new Afterword, his testimony before a Senate committee to advocate on behalf of undocumented youth.

Описание:
In Unmanageable Care, anthropologist Jessica M. Mulligan goes to work at an HMO and records what it’s really like to manage care. Set at a health insurance company dubbed Acme, this book chronicles how the privatization of the health care system in Puerto Rico transformed the experience of accessing and providing care on the island. Through interviews and participant observation, the book explores the everyday contexts in which market reforms were enacted. It follows privatization into the compliance department of a managed care organization, through the visits of federal auditors to a health plan, and into the homes of health plan members who recount their experiences navigating the new managed care system. In the 1990s and early 2000s, policymakers in Puerto Rico sold off most of the island’s public health facilities and enrolled the poor, elderly and disabled into for-profit managed care plans. These reforms were supposed to promote efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and high quality care. Despite the optimistic promises of market-based reforms, the system became more expensive, not more efficient; patients rarely behaved as the expected health-maximizing information processing consumers; and care became more chaotic and difficult to access. Citizens continued to look to the state to provide health services for the poor, disabled, and elderly. This book argues that pro-market reforms failed to deliver on many of their promises.The health care system in Puerto Rico was dramatically transformed, just not according to plan.
Описание: This book examines major literary texts by and about the Irish in the Middle Ages, providing an analysis of a spatial poetics developed over 600 years. It argues that the Irish theorised anew the concept of `place` and developed a `spatial turn` that reconfigured how communities in the Irish Sea region thought about writing, place and identity. -- .
When Terry Mulligan's sons, Brennan and Colin set off on separate around the world journeys, she has a hunch her life is going to get stressful--it does. One son runs out of air while scuba diving; the other flies head over heels off a motorcycle. Then, Terry gets a call saying, "Colin needs you to wire him the $3000 in his savings account."
Partly through emails and letters, readers join these explorers in seventeen countries, on three continents, as they pay homage to sacred sites, bask in the kindness of strangers, and discover beauty in the world and in themselves. Ranging from heartwarming to heart thumping, and oftentimes hilarious, this smartly conceived book also confronts the complexity of parent-child love--including the endangered art of tough love--that helps boys become men.
