Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complexities of immigration in the United States, tracing its history from the country's founding to the present day. The author argues that immigration laws reflect a society's fundamental values, revealing how actual practices align with professed ideals. The b…ook examines the shift from a policy of encouraging immigration to the restrictive measures implemented in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It highlights the discriminatory nature of the National Origins Quota System, implemented in 1924, which favored northern and western European immigrants over those from southern and eastern Europe. The author discusses the impact of these policies on various immigrant groups, as well as their consequences for American society. The book concludes that the United States has an opportunity to rewrite its immigration laws, creating a system that is fair, equitable, and in line with the country's democratic aspirations.
