Well into the Trump presidency, immigration endures as a hotly contested issue in United States politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eDreams Derailed\u003c\/i\u003e sociologist William A. Schwab shares the stories of immigration reform advocates and follows up on stories told in his 2013 book \u003ci\u003eRight to DREAM\u003c\/i\u003e, which argued in favor of the DREAM Act that would have provided conditional residency for undocumented youth brought to the United States as children, a version of which was later enacted by executive order and referred to as DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking as its focal point the Trump administration's decision to rescind Obama-era DACA protection, \u003ci\u003eDreams Derailed\u003c\/i\u003e delves into the economic, political, and social factors that inform the public conversation about immigration, making a clear case for the many benefits of inclusive policies and the protection of undocumented youths. Schwab also takes a close look at the factors that carried Donald Trump to the White House, demonstrates how economic upheaval and the issue of immigration influenced the 2016 presidential election, analyzes current immigration laws, and suggests next steps for reform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William A.
