Immigration policy in a global economy.

The author discusses trends in immigration policy making. "The state has been transformed by the growth of a transnational economic system. Because immigration policy is deeply rooted in state sovereignty, it is critical to examine the implications of global transformations as national legal innovation lags behind systemic change." Sections are included on the state and the new economic regime, constraint on states' policy making, and when different regimes intersect.

[A century of French immigration to Canada (1881-1980)].

French immigration to Canada from 1881 to 1980 is examined. It is noted that "in one century, about 144,000 Frenchmen emigrated to Canada. The movement, which was very limited until 1900, spread until 1914, collapsed between 1914 and 1945 and then soared after the Second World War. Until 1914 Frenchmen went mainly to the West; since 1945 they have gone principally to Quebec." The history of Canadian immigration policy during the past century is also reviewed (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)

[The North African diasporas and the construction of Europe].

"The term 'diaspora' evokes both the idea of dispersal and the idea of solidarity between immigrants, or, in other words, their continued attachment to their country of origin. The case of North Africans in Western Europe illustrates the role of these new 'diasporas'. Their role is vital, though as yet unrecognised, and consists in furthering the development of relations between the host country and their country of origin. However, in the immediate future, a problem will become apparent in the EEC [European Economic Community], as there will undoubtedly be repercussions for immigrants from outside of the EEC when the principle of free movement between member countries comes into force in 1993."

Canadian immigration policy in the early 1990s: a commentary on Veugelers and Klassen's analysis of the breakdown in the unemployment-immigration linkage.

The author comments on an article by J. W. P. Veugelers and T. R. Klassen. "Veugelers and Klassen's (1994) paper makes an important contribution by confirming in detail three findings on Canadian immigration policy that have been noted only more casually and less clearly in previous studies. In this commentary on their paper, I seek to clarify the significance of their findings and to set forth some important issues and hypotheses which are not covered in their interpretation."

Canadian immigration policy: a reply to Foot and Simmons.

This article is a response to comments on a recent article on the links between immigration and unemployment in Canada. "In their commentaries, Foot (1994) and Simmons (1994) focus on our interpretations, and advance alternative or supplementary interpretations. In this response, we critically examine the role of demographic objectives; the economic demand theory; globalization; and the state-centered immigration model."

Two traditions of American reform: immigration regulation and the lessons of history.

"Immigration reform long has produced fierce conflict among U.S. policymakers over how to regulate racial and ethnic diversity, economic opportunity, and global involvement in American life. This essay attempts to provide an historical perspective on recent innovations in [U.S.] immigration policy, comparing them with restrictionist and expansionist traditions in U.S. political development. While recent reforms exemplify an unprecedented openness in keeping with a more inclusive democracy, their failure to address public anxieties about porous borders inadvertently breathed life into a new anti-immigrant politics that may threaten these policy achievements."
