The Recurring Native Response To Global Labor Migration, Patrick W. Thomas
The Recurring Native Response To Global Labor Migration, Patrick W. Thomas
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
For the past few decades, and increasingly in the past few years, U.S. state governments have supplemented federal immigration law with state laws overtly designed to combat the perceived ills stemming from undocumented immigration to the United States. Proponents of these laws justify them on the basis of a normative negativity associated with "illegal" immigration, and negative economic consequences for natives. They further disclaim any discriminatory motive behind the laws, claiming that the laws only target "illegal" immigration.

The Affordable Care Act And International Recruitment And Migration Of Nursing Professionals, Helen D. Arnold

In The Breach: Citizenship And Its Approximations, Susan C.B. Coutin
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
To analyze the forms of membership that are created in the gap between formal citizenship and social belonging, this paper takes up three examples of citizenship in the breach: (1) the 1980-1992 Salvadoran civil war, in which human rights abuses perpetrated in El Salvador effectively constituted Salvadoran migrants as stateless persons, though technically they held Salvadoran citizenship; (2) informal U.S. membership claims put forward by longtime U.S. residents who were deported to El Salvador; and (3) the legal or documentary problems that emerge when legal permanent residents, some of whom immigrated to the United States from El Salvador during the …
