Summary
"This book is a ... study of how restrictionists and anti-restrictionists alike have influenced the process of immigration reform since the rise of a gate-keeping nation at the end of the nineteenth century. It provides a single ... story about how the dynamics of immigration reform have made the acceptance of restriction possible. Weaving together political, social, policy, and transnational history, the book examines how Italian and Jewish immigration reform advocates in the United States mobilized against restrictive immigration laws from 1882 to 1965 within a transnational framework"--Provided by publisher.
