Trouble at the Border: A Contextual Approach to the Study of Immigration Policy in the United States

This exciting book takes advantage of the reader's inherent interest in their lineage and family history to provide that "spark," which makes the study of American political systems personal and relevant. It has been designed as a textbook in college-level American Government courses, and has been tested at both two and four year institutions. This book allows both instructors and students a deeper understanding of the complexities and subtleties of the U.S. political system beyond that normally achieved in a traditional chapter-by-chapter approach.
