One of the most contentious issues in America today is the status
of immigration. American Immigration and Citizenship shows that
this issue is far from new. In this book, John Vile provides
context for contemporary debates on the topic through key
historical documents presented alongside essays that interpret
their importance for the reader. The author concludes that a
highly-interconnected world presents no easy answers and offers no
single immigration policy that will work for all time. The book
includes a mix of laws, constitutional provisions, speeches, and
judicial decisions from each period. Vile furthermore traces the
interconnections between issues of citizenship and issues of
immigration, indicating that public opinion and legislation has
often contained contradictory strains. Although the primary focus
has been on national laws and decisions, some of the readings
clearly indicate the stakes that states, which are often affected
disproportionately by such laws, have also had in this process.
