Abstract

Since re-unification, fears of resurgent German nationalism have mounted. O'Brien argues that these fears are exaggerated, and documents a longstanding, steadily increasing commitment to the liberal policies of the Basic Law which protects foreigners.

Abstract

What difference does law make in immigration policymaking? Since the 1970s, networks of progressive attorneys in both the US and France have attempted to use litigation to assert rights for non-citizens. Yet judicial engagement - while numerically voluminous - remains doctrinally curtailed. This study offers new insights into the constitutive role of law in immigration policymaking by focusing on the legal frames, narratives, and performances forged through action in court. Challenging the conventional wisdom that 'cause litigation' has little long term impact on policymaking unless it produces broad rights-protective principles, this book shows that legal contestation can have important radiating effects on policy by reshaping how political actors approach immigration issues. Based on extensive fieldwork in the United States and France, this book explores the paths by which litigation has effected policy change in two paradigmatically different national contexts.

Abstract

Gerald Neuman discusses in historical and contemporary terms the repeated efforts of U.S. insiders to claim the Constitution as their exclusive property and to deny constitutional rights to aliens and immigrants--and even citizens if they are outside the nation's borders. Tracing such efforts from the debates over the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798 to present-day controversies about illegal aliens and their children, the author argues that no human being subject to the governance of the United States should be a "stranger to the Constitution. "Thus, whenever the government asserts its power to impose obligations on individuals, it brings them within the constitutional system and should afford them constitutional rights. In Neuman's view, this mutuality of obligation is the most persuasive approach to extending constitutional rights extraterritorially to all U.S. citizens and to those aliens on whom the United States seeks to impose legal responsibilities. Examining both mutuality and more flexible theories, Neuman defends some constitutional constraints on immigration and deportation policies and argues that the political rights of aliens need not exclude suffrage. Finally, in regard to whether children born in the United States to illegally present alien parents should be U.S. citizens, he concludes that the Constitution's traditional shield against the emergence of a hereditary caste of "illegals" should be vigilantly preserved.

Abstract

Ésta es una macrohistoria de México, desde la perspectiva de los extranjeros que inmigraron al país y de los mexicanos que emigraron de él, basada mayormente en fuentes primarias impresas, fuentes inéditas y monografías. En el tercer volumen (1910-1970) se estudia la Revolución mexicana, boxer según los extranjeros afectados por ella, nacionalista según el gobierno mexicano y grandes sectores populares. En la década de los veinte regresa a México buen número de mormones que se habían refugiado en Estados Unidos, y llegan menonitas, judíos, sirios y libaneses, principalmente. La crisis de 1929 expulsó a muchos mexicanos de Estados Unidos y a muchos chinos de México, sobre todo del noroeste. Con la explosión demográfica y la segunda guerra mundial cobra una fuerza aún mayor la emigración de los braceros a Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, en la década de los cuarenta llegan los españoles republicanos; a partir de los cincuenta, estadunidenses jubilados, y en los setenta veteranos de la guerra de Vietnam.

Abstract

Ésta es una macrohistoria de México, desde la perspectiva de los extranjeros que inmigraron al país y de los mexicanos que emigraron de él, basada mayormente en fuentes primarias impresas, fuentes inéditas y monografías. En el segundo volumen, ya establecida la libertad de cultos, se abre una atmósfera liberal que disminuye el problema de escoger entre inmigrantes sajones y latinos. Entre los primeros sobresale la colonización mormona; entre los segundos, la italiana. El tradicional recelo frente a los estadunidenses transforma la xenofilia en xenofobia. Además, la creciente salida de braceros a Estados Unidos confirma que México es un país de emigración y no de inmigración.

Abstract

Noncitizens have always been present in liberal political philosophy. Often hard to situate within traditional frameworks that prioritise citizenship, noncitizens can appear voiceless and rightsless, which has implications for efforts towards global justice and justice in migration. This book proposes an alternative. Noncitizenism identifies an analytical category of noncitizenship. While maintaining the importance of citizenship, noncitizenship is another form of special individual-State relationship. It operates far from a State, at its borders, and within its territory, providing a tool for examining the continuity between sites of engagement and the literatures, questions, and conclusions relating to them. The book argues that an accurate liberal theoretical framework, and one which can address contemporary challenges, must acknowledge the political relationship of noncitizenship between individuals and States. This book is for students and scholars of political philosophy and for those interested in noncitizenship and how it can inform the response of liberal theory, citizenship, global justice, migration studies, political theory and policy work.
