The most comprehensive collection of essays on undocumented
immigration to date, covering issues not generally found anywhere else
on the subject. Three fascinating volumes feature the latest research
from the country's top immigration scholars. In the United States, the
crisis of undocumented immigrants draws strong opinions from both
sides of the debate. For those who immigrate, concerns over safety,
incorporation, and fair treatment arise upon arrival. For others, the
perceived economic, political, and cultural impact of newcomers can
feel threatening. In this informative three-volume set, top
immigration scholars explain perspectives from every angle, examining
facts and seeking solutions to counter the controversies often brought
on by the current state of undocumented immigrant affairs. Immigration
expert and set editor Lois Lorentzen leads a stellar team of
contributors, laying out history, theories, and legislation in the
first book; human rights, sexuality, and health in the second; and
economics, politics, and morality in the final volume. From family
separation, to human trafficking, to notions of citizenship, this
provocative study captures the human costs associated with this type
of immigration in the United States, questions policies intended to
protect the "American way of life," and offers strategies for easing
tensions between immigrants and natural-born citizens in everyday
life.
