- W1528591208 abstract "In 1985, the United States sought and obtained the indictment of two nuns, a Protestant minister, two Quakers, several lay Catholic and Protestant employees of church-sponsored social services, and members of religious congregations, for their work in assisting Central American refugees to enter and find safe haven in this country, despite the efforts of Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) efforts to capture and return them. The was a church community awakened by refugees' eyewitness accounts of death squads, torture, and the disappearance of citizens and of church aid and other humanitarian aid workers. For North Americans, these accounts provoked a double trauma: the knowledge of extensive human rights abuses in Central America by United States supported forces, coupled with the refusal of the United States government to harbor refugees until the hostilities in El Salvador abated. By the time of the Tucson indictment, the Sanctuary Movement sprawled across the nation, from California, Arizona, and Texas on the border of Mexico; north to Seattle; east to Cleveland, Chicago, New York, and Boston, and even into Canada. The relief network spread across the country, chiefly through religious congregations, despite federal criminal sanctions for harboring or transporting illegal aliens. This article considers what we ought to make of this phenomenon of citizen interpretive authority, and particularly, of the claim that Sanctuary civil initiative strengthens rather than demeans the law. How dangerous, or how valuable, are such processes of citizen interpretation? The Article includes my case study of the social meanings of law ascribed by citizen members of the sanctuary movement of the 1980s, as to matters about which the law speaks, as well as to positive laws and the institutions that make and apply them." @default.
