ABSTRACT This paper examines what Central American unaccompanied minors know about the unauthorized journey to the US and protective US immigration laws. I find that, contrary to policymakers’ assumptions, children know little about US immigration laws, but they are well aware of the dangers of the journey. I argue that the composition of migrant networks and the strength of ties shape how children acquire information and resources indispensable to plan unauthorized trips to the US, for which most respondents relied on smugglers. Unaccompanied minors who had “strong” ties to parents in the US had more access to information and resources than those with “weak” ties to non-parent relatives. Yet even “strong” ties deteriorated after years of family separation imposed by US immigration policy, undermining communication in families across borders, with implications for how trips were organized and what children knew. These findings extend adult-centric migration theories by centering the experiences of children.

ABSTRACT This article focuses on the inhabitants of Ratargul living next to the Sylhet Cantonment of the Bangladesh Army. Since 1977, construction of the cantonment has gradually driven villagers from their land, with no significant opposition. This alienation will soon reach full completion through the new extension plans of the cantonment. Villagers anticipate this expansion with fear and express anger at the poverty caused by land appropriation. However, in their accounts, dukkho (grief) overshadows their fear and anger. What do they grieve for, exactly? The article suggests that dukkho is an expression of grief over material losses but also of pain over the disappearance of previous forms of life. Additionally, dukkho represents villager’s regret over missed opposition opportunities that did not materialize because they were misled; as low-caste Hindus they lack solidarity; and it is still unclear who is responsible for the land capture: the army or the government.
