Globalization And The Border: Trade, Labor, Migration, And Agricultural Production In Mexico, Chantal Thomas
Globalization And The Border: Trade, Labor, Migration, And Agricultural Production In Mexico, Chantal Thomas
Chantal Thomas
The debate over immigration policy in the United States has reached a crescendo in recent years, with particular concern over illegal workers and their impact on social well-being in this country.

Section I concludes with both a graphic representation of doctrinal convergences and divergences, and a further discussion the doctrinal relationships among treaties as elucidated through consideration of hypothetical legal disputes. Section II considers the normative implications of divergent rule systems. In particular, Section II raises …
