The aim of this paper is to present and discuss the approaches of the European Union and the United States of America towards the phenomenon of irregular immigration after 2010. Our analysis is based on official documents and other works published by the EU and U.S. federal government as well as on the literature in this field. This study is a continuation of our comparative papers from 2016-2018 devoted to different aspects of complex migratory reality in the EU and U.S. as well as corresponding public policies. We conclude that the high concentration in recent years on securing the borders and strengthening the policy of their control is similar for both entities. However, the effectiveness of the U.S. in defining and implementing a single approach to irregular migration is possible to a greater degree than in the EU - an international organization grouping sovereign states having their own national interests.(original abstract)

Od momentu prezydenckiej inauguracji D.J. Trumpa w 2017 r. USA rozpoczęły reorientację swojej polityki imigracyjnej. Dotknęła ona wielu grup, ale najdotkliwiej imigrantów nieregularnych. Radykalnym krokiem w stronę ograniczenia wielkości ich populacji i ograniczenia napływu nowych imigrantów jest "polityka braku tolerancji". Z kolei w UE, do której w związku z jej położeniem geograficznym i potencjałem społeczno-ekonomicznym, również docierają nieregularni imigranci, wzrost zainteresowania tym zjawiskiem nastąpił wraz z kryzysem migracyjnym i uchodźczym. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie podejścia UE i USA do zjawiska imigracji nieregularnej po 2010 r. W opracowaniu wykorzystano dorobek prawny i wybrane materiały publikowane przez instytucje UE oraz przez amerykańskie instytucje rządowe, a także literaturę przedmiotu. Artykuł jest kontynuacją publikacji autorów z lat 2016-2018 poświęconych wybranym aspektom migracji międzynarodowych w UE i USA.(abstrakt oryginalny)
