“…Since the inception of the term, crimmigration scholarship has evolved into two main pillars of research: One focusing on the concept itself examining its origins and proliferation through legal structures as well as the public and political discourse and law enforcement (Coutin, 2011; Pickett, 2016; Sklansky, 2012; Van der Woude et al, 2014; Van der Woude and Van Berlo, 2015) and another studying the impact of crimmigration on the treatment of non-citizens by the criminal justice system (Aas, 2014; Armenta, 2016, 2017; Beckett and Evans, 2015; Bosworth et al, 2018; Chacon, 2015; Kirk and Wakefield, 2018; Ryo, 2016; Stumpf, 2011). Contemporary crimmigration scholarship still centers around the North American context with a growing number of studies examining the expansion of crimmigration to other Western democratic states such as the Netherlands, Norway and Germany, which limits the scope of this review (Aas, 2014; Graebsch, 2019; Van der Woude et al, 2014; Van der Woude and Van Berlo, 2015).…”
