This innovative work provides both a historical account of the crazy-quilt of legislation dealing with immigration that Congress has passed over the years and a theoretical explanation, building on the -new institutionalism, - of how these laws came to be passed. The author shows why immigration is a policy arena in which a polity chooses what it will be.
