About the Author

Miguel A. De La Torre is a distinguished scholar, ethicist, and public intellectual whose work bridges theology, social justice, and cultural critique. Born in Cuba and raised in the United States, he draws from his immigrant roots to explore the intersections of faith, power, and marginalized voices in contemporary society. As a professor of social ethics and director of the Center for Latino/a Studies at Iliff School of Theology, De La Torre has authored numerous books and articles that challenge systemic injustices, advocating for a liberative ethics informed by Latino/a perspectives. His incisive analysis in The U.S. Immigration Crisis: Toward an Ethics of Place (Cascade Companions) examines the moral dimensions of immigration policy, urging readers to reimagine borders through a lens of hospitality and human dignity. De La Torre's scholarship inspires activists, theologians, and policymakers alike to confront the ethical imperatives of our globalized world.
