Debating American Immigration: A Reactive Analysis
This three page undergraduate paper examines the book, Debating American Immigration. The author of the paper notes that over the last one hundred and twenty years, more people have immigrated to the United States than any other country, and have often found life so good here that they have contacted family and friends in the old country and have convinced them to come to America as well. Over the years, the pace of immigration has waxed and waned depending upon political, religious, and economic conditions overseas, and has consisted at different times of a wave of immigrants from Northern Europe, then from southern and eastern Europe, and more recently from Asia.
