- More about God and the Illegal Alien: United States Immigration Law and a Theology of Politics
Millions of men, women, and children who enter the United States unlawfully are deemed 'illegal aliens' under United States immigration law. Where do these migrants stand within Christian ethics? This book explains the rise of the illegal alien and responds to the law through a theological account of politics.
Format: Hardback

In the United States, a significant number of individuals, including men, women, and children, are categorized as illegal aliens according to federal law. While the presence of these migrants may violate legal regulations, many of them come to the country in response to the demand for low-cost labor and choose to remain and contribute to the community. This book seeks to explore the position of migrants within God's world and examine how authorities can govern immigration in a manner that aligns with Christian ethics. The author delves into the historical development of the concept of the illegal alien in federal US law while also exploring Christian perspectives on belonging, governance, and relationships with neighbors. This thought-provoking work offers a fresh approach to addressing the complex issue of illegal immigration in the United States through the lens of Christian theology.
