Getting Immigration Right focuses on what is arguably the most
important aspect of the current immigration debate: how best to
understand and resolve illegal immigration from Mexico. The scale
and character of illegal immigration is only one facet of the
“immigration problem” currently before Congress and the
president, but it is its most contentious and visible face. It is
also the one part of the contemporary immigration story that
attracts the most intense opposition, the most widely disseminated
mythologies, and the most powerfully advocated solutions. What to
do about illegal immigration from Mexico is a major political
question of our time. The book’s wide-ranging and timely
discussion includes legal and non-Mexican immigration. It sets the
context of immigration before exploring the job experiences of
illegal immigrants and their quest for the American dream. The
contributors then focus on the causes and consequences—economic
and social—of immigration, both legal and otherwise, and vividly
describe the Latino experiences of illegality, including crossing
the border and living in fear of deportation. In addition, the
reform of immigration law is discussed from three distinct
viewpoints: one conservative, one liberal, and one libertarian. The
volume closes with its editors’ own proposals for comprehensive
immigration reform. With a foreword by Alejandro Portes, a
professor of sociology at Princeton University and author of
Immigrant America: A Portrait.
