U.S. IMMIGRATION AND REFUGEE POLICY, 1983: "Current Status of U.S. Immigration and Refugee Policy" and "'Immigration as an Intrusive Global Flow; A New Perspective"
subject: Immigration Law United States
description: Both documents are excerpts from a larger work, Mary M. Kritz's U.S. IMMIGRATION AND REGUGEE POLICY, 1983. The first, "Current Status of U.S. Immigration and Refugee Policy" by Charles B. Keely, documents why immigration policy is so slow to change. The next, "Immigration as an Intrusive Global Flow; A New Perspective" by David F. Ronfeldt, describes U.S. immigration policy as a failure of current regulatory policies, an inability to develop a comphrehensive alternative policy and a consequent reliance of crisis management, as well as a moral ambivalence toward immigration and refugee issues.
