    The Walls Within - (Politics and Society in Modern America) by Sarah R Coleman (Hardcover)

    product_image

    The Hart-Celler Act of 1965 marked a turning point in American immigration history, abolishing national origins quotas and opening the door to mass immigration from Latin America, Asia, the Caribbean, and Southeast Asia.

    This book provides a comprehensive history of the political battles that ensued, focusing on the rights of immigrants and their access to the American welfare state.

    Coleman argues that as immigration became more porous, the rights of immigrants became crucial to immigration control.

    Despite efforts by restrictionists to limit immigrants' access to the state and take jobs from working- and middle-class Americans, the legacies of the civil rights movement, deregulation, unusual political alliances, and institutional structures provided significant barriers to anti-immigration efforts.

    By the end of Reagan's presidency, restrictionists failed at the national level, but focused their efforts on the state level in the 1990s.

    This book offers a new perspective on the political history of immigration, highlighting the importance of alienage rights and the role of states in driving immigration policy.

    Don't miss out on this comprehensive and insightful look at the complex history of American immigration policy!
