Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is general agreement today that traditional approaches to immigration admissions in the major receiving countries of the West have serious shortcomings either in concept or implementation, or at times in both. These essays, all written by leading immigration experts, consider the philosophical and moral constraints on immigration law and policy, the basic elements of a comprehensive migration policy, and specific policy areas, including family reunification and asylum. Taken together, these perspectives represent a fresh, comparative look at some of the most urgent issues in this pivotal area of law and policy.

Download or read book Re thinking the Political Economy of Immigration Control written by Lea Sitkin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a systematic exploration of the changing politics around immigration and the impact of resultant policy regimes on immigrant communities. It does so across a uniquely wide range of policy areas: immigration admissions, citizenship, internal immigration controls, labour market regulation, the welfare state and the criminal justice system. Challenging the current state of theoretical literature on the ‘criminalisation’ or ‘marginalisation’ of immigrants, this book examines the ways in which immigrants are treated differently in different national contexts, as well as the institutional factors driving this variation. To this end, it offers data on overall trends across 20 high-income countries, as well as more detailed case studies on the UK, Australia, the USA, Germany, Italy and Sweden. At the same time, it charts an emerging common regime of exploitation, which threatens the depiction of some countries as more inclusionary than others. The politicisation of immigration has intensified the challenge for policy-makers, who today must respond to populist calls for restrictive immigration policy whilst simultaneously heeding business groups’ calls for cheap labour and respecting legal obligations that require more liberal and welcoming policy regimes. The resultant policy regimes often have counterproductive effects, in many cases marginalising immigrant communities and contributing to the growth of underground and criminal economies. Finally, developments on the horizon, driven by technological progress, threaten to intensify distributional challenges. While these will make the politics around immigration even more fraught in coming decades, the real issue is not immigration but the loss of good jobs, which will have serious implications across all Western countries. This book will appeal to scholars and students of criminology, social policy, political economy, political sociology, the sociology of immigration and race, and migration studies.

Book excerpt: In 1993, when Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman was arrested for the bombing of the World Trade Center, and the GOLDEN VENTURE -- a smuggling ship containing 300 Chinese illegal emigrants -- ran aground on Long Island, the issue of immigration vaulted to the top of America's public agenda. Anxieties about the flood of immigrants that might arrive on our shores has prompted calls for new restrictions, and not just on political asylum. This latest book pressing questions facing politicians and voters right now: How many emigrants should be admitted? Of what nations and races? On what basis should we make those decisions? How should we enforce them? This book is intended as a framework for public discussion, a tool to help participants consider alternative points of view and courses of action.
