这本专著认为,在1978年至1992年期间,美国移民和毒品执法政策和做法在美国-墨西哥边境地区变得越来越军事化。蒂姆·邓恩详细研究了这些政策和实践,并根据五角大楼“低强度冲突”原则的战略和战术来考虑它们。“这一理论是在1980年代为中美洲和其他地方所使用而发展起来的,其特点是广泛规定对特定平民人口实行社会控制,其执行往往伴随着广泛的侵犯人权行为。这项研究反映了对美国人权状况的深切关注。墨西哥边境地区-在这方面有一个麻烦的历史-并被告知的信念,“官方”的故事通常只是一个版本的事件,永远不应该接受不加批判。
This monograph argues that during the 1978-1992 period, U.S. immigration and drug enforcement policies and practices in the U.S.-Mexico border region became increasingly militarized. Tim Dunn examines these policies and practices in detail, and considers them in light of the strategy and tactics of the Pentagon doctrine of "low-intensity conflict." Developed during the 1980s for use in Central America and elsewhere, this doctrine is characterized by broad-ranging provisions for establishing social control over specific civilian populations, and its implementation has often been accompanied by widespread human-rights violations. The study reflects a deep concern for human-rights conditions in the U.S.-Mexico border region - which has a troubled history in that regard - and is informed by the belief that the "official" story is usually but one version of events and should never be accepted uncritically.
