Few topics generate as much heated public debate in the United
States today as immigration across our southern border. Two
positions have been staked out, one favoring the expansion of
guest-worker programs and focusing on the economic benefits of
immigration, and the other proposing greater physical and other
barriers to entry and focusing more on the perceived threat to
national security from immigration. Both sides of this debate,
however, rely in their arguments on preconceived notions and
unexamined assumptions about assimilation, national identity,
economic participation, legality, political loyalty, and gender
roles. In American Immigration After 1996, Kathleen Arnold aims to
reveal more of the underlying complexities of immigration and, in
particular, to cast light on the relationship between globalization
of the economy and issues of political sovereignty, especially what
she calls "prerogative power" as it is exercised by the U.S.
government.
