摘要

每年都有成千上万无人陪伴的儿童抵达美国边境。在许多情况下,这些儿童逃离祖国的恶劣条件,寻找安全和家人。美国移民系统缺乏对这些儿童的充分回应,只提供了两条极其困难的道路:庇护和指定特殊移民青少年身份。虽然随着时间的推移,这一制度提供了获得公民身份的途径,但它是神秘而敌对的。此外,在这一切中,这些儿童缺乏获得辩护人的权利,辩护人可以保护他们的利益,或者至少向移民法院建议如何为儿童的最大利益服务。本文探讨了美国移民系统中无人陪伴儿童的问题,并提出了建立一个类似于联邦青少年刑事司法系统的独立青少年移民司法系统的必要性。

Few Paths after a Long Journey: The Need for a Juvenile Immigration System
Thousands of unaccompanied children arrive at the U.S. border each year. In many cases, these children are fleeing harsh conditions in their home country in search for safety and family. The U.S. immigration system lacks an adequate response for these children, providing only two exceedingly difficult paths: asylum and the Special Immigrant Juvenile Status designation. While providing access to a path to citizenship over time, the system is arcane and adversarial. Moreover, through it all, these children lack a right to an advocate who can protect their interest or at a minimum advise the immigration court of how to serve the child’s best interests. This article explores issues surrounding unaccompanied children in the U.S. immigration system and suggests the need for an independent juvenile immigration justice system similar to the Federal Juvenile Criminal Justice System.
