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.
This note argues that (1) through a comparison with immigration flows and laws arising in the First Era of Globalization in the …
Immigration Control In An Era Of Globalization: Deflecting Foreigners, Weakening Citizens, Strengthening The State, Valsamis Mitsilegas
Immigration Control In An Era Of Globalization: Deflecting Foreigners, Weakening Citizens, Strengthening The State, Valsamis Mitsilegas
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
In stark contrast to the field of legislation on the rights of third country nationals or to the requirements and conditions for access to the territory of states, the field of the enforcement of immigration control has been increasingly subject to legal harmonization: either by the adoption of global law on immigration control or by the convergence of domestic law and policy in the field. This convergence is particularly marked when one compares legal responses to immigration control in the United States and the European Union, where globalization has been used to justify the extension of state power-by proclaiming state …

The Domestic Face Of Globalization: Law's Role In The Integration Of Immigrants In The United States, Alfred C. Aman, Graham Rehrig
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article applies a global perspective to immigration in the United States, focusing in particular on law’s role in the integration of immigrants into U.S. society. The global perspective illuminates the relationship of immigration to other forms of transnationalism, as well as to the situation of non-immigrant minorities and the working poor. We review the history of immigration law in the United States as well as the main elements of current debate. Drawing on the Constitution’s guarantees of equal protection, as well as the preemption doctrine, we suggest specific ways in which immigration law might optimally evolve in the future. …

Making Visible The Invisible: Strategies For Responding To Globalization's Impact On Immigrant Workers In The United States, Sarah Paoletti
Making Visible The Invisible: Strategies For Responding To Globalization's Impact On Immigrant Workers In The United States, Sarah Paoletti
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
This article explores the impact of globalization on immigrant workers in the United States. Although Congress created programs to provide vocational training services and cash allowances to workers who qualified by virtue of having lost their jobs as a result of the adverse impacts of trade, these programs have done little to assist many of the immigrant workers displaced by shifting labor markets. Through critical review of two case studies, the article pursues a more comprehensive understanding of the reasons the system failed these workers, in order to better respond to systematic barriers placed in the way of limited-English proficient …
The Organization Of Care Work In Italy: Gender And Migrant Labor In The New Economy, Dawn Lyon
The Organization Of Care Work In Italy: Gender And Migrant Labor In The New Economy, Dawn Lyon
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
This articled discussed social, political, and economic aspects--particularly, gender and race-based implications-of the organization of elder care work in Italy and globally. Care work for the elderly is a particularly acute concern in Italy and across Europe, as the population is aging while women (the traditional caregivers) have joined the labor force in record numbers and family size has decreased. As the supply of informal female carers has decreased, the need for elder care is increasing. In Italy, a significant trend is the employment of migrant female workers (many from Latin American, Eastern European, and African nations) for home-based elder …
