Opening and Closing the Doors: Evaluating Immigration Reform and Control (hardcover) (Book)
Frank D. Bean, Georges Vernez, Charles B. Keely

This book provides a clear outline of the major historical features of immigration to the United States; examines in detail the provisions, implementations to date, and potential effects of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA); and reviews recent trends in legal and illegal immigration and refugee admissions, together with recent proposals to further alter legal immigration policy. The last chapter moves beyond IRCA and a strictly legislative focus to a discussion of integration in relation to the U.S. economy, labor markets, and foreign policy.
