A primary issue of concern is the experience of child migrants in detention by the U.S. government. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The authors in this volume approach the topic of child migrant detention from a range of perspectives. Some authors, particularly those who provide a legal perspective, chronicle the harms of detention, arguing that despite governmental assurances of child protection, detention is fundamentally a state-sanctioned form of violence. The social scientists in the volume have worked closely with detained youth themselves; in these chapters, authors highlight the ways in which youth survive detention, often through everyday acts of resistance and through the formation of temporary relationships. Practitioners including psychologists, activists, and faith leaders look at forms of resistance to detention. From retheorizing psychological interventions for detained youth to forming hospitality homes that act as alternatives to detention, these practitioners highlight ways forward for advocates of youth. At the heart of these narratives lies a crucial debate: the tension between harm-reduction strategies and abolition. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This interdisciplinary work brings together voices from the legal realm, the academic world, and the on-the-ground experiences of activists and practitioners. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Stella Akello \u003cbr\u003e Jessica Alaniz \u003cbr\u003e Aireen Grace Andal \u003cbr\u003e Samuel Arroyo \u003cbr\u003e Corey Brost \u003cbr\u003e Lina Caswell Mu?oz \u003cbr\u003e Marisa Chumil \u003cbr\u003e Patricia Crowley \u003cbr\u003e Iman Dadras \u003cbr\u003e Sarah J.
