In a historical overview of U.S. immigration, the authors examine legislative and legal battles being waged over immigration policy, whether minority issues can be resolved by developing a more explicit settlement policy, and whether the contract between state and immigrant would change if we fully understood the immigrant's legitimate needs.

Immigration And Immigrant Policy

Making Americans, Remaking America

Alan S. Yang

Using the most extensive and currently available survey opinion data, this book empirically supports the argument that Latinos have emerged as a convergent panethnic political group, beyond the individual national origin identities dating to the time of the 1990 Latino National Political Survey when Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Cuban Americans were treated conceptually as politically distinct groups. Replete with data and supplemented by an extensive online resource, this book offers scholars, students, and sophisticated general readers evidence and inspiration for understanding the dynamics of Latino politics in the U.S. today.

Americanizing Latino Politics, Latinoizing American Politics

This book provides basic information about the political values, attitudes and behaviors of Mexican-, Puerto Rican-, and Cuban-origin populations in the United States. It describes the extent to which U.S. citizens of Hispanic origins hold particular views and participate in specific activities.

Mexico is becoming increasingly important as a focus of U.S. immigration policy, and the movement of people across the U.S.-Mexico border is a subject of intense interest and controversy. The U.S. approach to cross-border flows is in flux, the economic climate in Mexico is uncertain, and relations between the two neighbors have entered a new stage with the launching of NAFTA. This volume draws together original essays by distinguished scholars from a variety of disciplines and both sides of the border to examine current impetuses to migration and policy options for Mexico and the U.S.
