未经授权的移民，已经是美国社会中一个分裂和有争议的话题，在9月9日的恐怖袭击后被重新定义为严重的国家安全威胁2001年11月11日。然而，尽管公众、政治和政策对无证移民和恐怖主义问题给予了大量关注，但对未经许可的移民流动与恐怖主义活动之间的关系却很少进行经验性评估。我们试图通过结合新开发的对未经授权人口的估计、衡量恐怖主义相关活动的量刑和检察数据的新用途以及来自所有50个州的犯罪学、社会经济和人口背景的多个数据源来填补这一空白。1990年至2014年。然后，我们利用这个独特的数据集来研究无证移民和各种恐怖主义措施之间的纵向，宏观层面的关系。固定效应负二项模型的结果表明，这一时期无证移民的增加与恐怖袭击、激进化或恐怖主义起诉无关。
Unauthorized immigration, already a divisive and controversial subject in American society, was reframed as a grave national security threat after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Yet, despite substantial public, political and policy attention to the issue of undocumented immigration and terrorism, there has been relatively little empirical assessment of the relationship between unauthorized immigration flows and terrorist activity. We attempt to fill this gap by combining newly developed estimates of the unauthorized population, a novel use of sentencing and prosecutorial data to measure terrorism-related activity, and multiple data sources on the criminological, socioeconomic, and demographic context from all 50 states from 1990 to 2014. We then leverage this unique dataset to examine the longitudinal, macro-level relationship between undocumented immigration and various measures of terrorism. Results from fixed effects negative binomial models suggest that increased undocumented immigration over this period is not associated with terrorist attacks, radicalization, or terrorism prosecutions.
