Нелегальная иммиграция из Латинской Америки в контексте президентской кампании в США 2024 г.: эффекты поляризации
Illegal immigration, particularly from Latin American countries, remains a major issue that divides
the political process in the United States. Both Republican and Democratic candidates are exploiting
this problem for political gain, as they compete for voters' support in the lead-up to the 2024
presidential election. While representatives of the two main political parties align on negative
attitudes towards the issue, their approaches to addressing the problem are significantly divided.
This study aims to examine the impact of the polarising effects of Latin American illegal immigration
on the political process in the United States within the context of the 2024 presidential campaign.
The article takes a regional approach, examining presidential candidates from the Democratic and
Republican parties who have formally declared their intention to run on September 1, 2023. The
article concludes that the ongoing migration crisis in the United States and related socio-economic
issues will remain a major concern in the future. Overall, discussions on this matter extend beyond
domestic political discourse in the United States and now encompass the contentious inter-
American relations and the outlook for the liberal-democratic model as a whole
