Immigration and refugee policies have traditionally been based on
two assumptions: first, that national sovereignty implies absolute
control of a country's borders and, second, that outsiders are to
be admitted only when it serves the national interest. Moral or
ethical concerns have not played a central role in policy formation
anywhere in the world. This collection of essays challenges the
traditional politically oriented position, analyzes the moral
issues involved, and develops models for morally responsible
immigration and refugee policies in a contemporary political
setting. The editor's introduction reviews the history of U.S.
immigration policy and provides a framework for considering
immigration control issues. Written by leading authorities on
immigration and refugee policy, this provocative volume offers an
honest, sensitive exploration of some of the most difficult
questions facing contemporary society. It will be of interest for
studies in ethics, human rights, public policy, and political
economy, as well as to general readers concerned with immigration
and refugee issues.
