The Immigration Act of 1965 was one of the most consequential laws
ever passed in the United States and immigration policy continues
to be one of the most contentious areas of American politics. As a
"nation of immigrants," the United States has a long and complex
history of immigration programs and controls which are deeply
connected to the shape of American society today. This volume makes
sense of the political history and the social impacts of
immigration law, showing how legislation has reflected both
domestic concerns and wider foreign policy. John S. W. Park
examines how immigration law reforms have inspired radically
different responses across all levels of government, from
cooperation to outright disobedience, and how they continue to
fracture broader political debates. He concludes with an overview
of how significant, on-going challenges in our interconnected
world, including "failed states" and climate change, will shape
American migrations for many decades to come.
