Summary:
"This text provides students with an introduction to the politics of immigration policy in the U.S., Australia, Canada, and Europe. The book gives students an overview of the theoretical approaches used by political scientists to analyze immigration politics and provides historical background to the policies and politics that affect democracies today. A comparative politics approach develops the context that explains how immigration and politics interact in different types of countries. Covering topics including party politics, labor migration, and citizenship, students gain an understanding of the complexities of immigration politics and how immigration policies are affecting the world today"-- Provided by publisher.
