“The very processes of state formation and their compulsive nationalization must consequently be seen as part of what is in fact generated through the social struggles surrounding transnational human mobility and the political conflicts of 'immigration,' whereby the figure of 'the immigrant' is produced as an object of U.S. nationalism (De Genova, 2005, pp. 56-94).”

In the citing paper
“In particular, one very pervasive strain of migrant discourse concerning 'hard work' and 'deservingness' was deeply ensconced in a torturously contradictory set of allegations with regard to the 'laziness,' 'welfare dependency' and 'criminality' that many migrants commonly attribute to their most proximate competitors at the bottom echelons of the U.S. labour market, namely, impoverished U.S.-cit”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
