Resumo
This essay aims to present the treatment given to Latin American immigrants detained in the United States (US/USA) Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency'apos;s detention centers, during the presidential mandates of Barack Obama and Donald Trump, to answer the question of how this treatment has dehumanized detained immigrants. It has as objectives to identify the main principles of the human rights protection systems; to describe the concept of dehumanization; to present USA national migration policies, and to describe how those are represented in ICE?s mission and operations; to analyze the International Human Rights? protection systems, and how they are embodied in US internal migration treatment by telling stories from actors involved in it. To do so, a theoretical review is presented based on the International Regimes - specifically the human rights regime - and the Decolonialism theory, together with concepts such as dehumanization and intersectionality. The concepts from these theories are necessary to understand them and are explained throughout the essay, as well as the conception of Latin America as a region and identity. US migration policies are also displayed in a chronological order, with temporal clippings for the analyzed administrations, in order to introduce the argumentation, being followed by reports and stories from different actors involved in the legal process started by immigrants when entering the United States. As a result, it can be said that the treatment given to Latin American immigrants by the institution analyzed in the temporal clipping was poor and inhumane, not providing detainees with materials to supply basic necessities nor the means necessary for them to have a due legal process when immigrating and/or when being arrested.
