Description: This book is the first interdisciplinary study of the fundamental normative issues underpinning immigration policy. A distinguished group of economists, political scientists, and philosophers offer a stimulating and provocative discussion of this complex topic. Among the issues addressed are the proper role of the state in supporting a particular culture, the possible destabilization of the political and social life of a country through immigration and the size and distribution of economic losses and gains.
Review Quotes: "This is an excellent collection of essays on the moral dimensions of immigration policy and the significance of national boundaries." James W. Nickel, Philosophy in Review
