Controlling Immigration

«Comprehensively revised, this classic work is still a must read for anyone involved in migration issues. Addressing the dilemmas of migration control, especially the "liberal paradox," a term first coined by James Hollifield, each chapter skillfully discusses how migration states wrestle with these dilemmas and how societies are transformed by immigration."—Pieter Bevelander, Professor at Malmö University and Director of the Malmö Institute for Studies of Migration, Diversity and Welfare»

«Migration is one of the defining issues of the 21st century. The fourth edition of Controlling Immigration surpasses prior ones in scope and content. The book provides a valuable comparative perspective on immigration policies in both emerging and traditional countries of immigration. A must read for academics and policymakers alike."—Susan Martin, Professor Emerita of International Migration at Georgetown University»

«Updated in light of a rise of populist nationalisms, a global pandemic, and a surge in forced migrations, the fourth edition of Controlling Immigration is more indispensable than ever. Its distinguished contributors provide comprehensive overviews and vital analyses of immigration issues. As the severe gap between immigration policy goals and achievements continues to deepen, scholars, policymakers, and citizens need the knowledge this volume provides."—Rogers M. Smith, Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania»
