Mexico-U.S. migration management : a binational approach

Escobar Latapí, Agustín. (Added Author). Martin, Susan Forbes. (Added Author).

Summary: The need to understand the migration between the United States and Mexico is greater today than at any time in its century long history. Its volume and complexity are greater than most observers might have imagined even a decade ago; and it operates in acontext charged with serious human, political, and security challenges. Yet, there is often confusion over the most fundamental questions about the demography, economics, and political nature of the movement and its policy responses. The editors of this book bring together a team of top policy-oriented migration experts from Mexico and the Unit.
