About this eTextbook
Continuing large-scale migration to the United States raises the question of how best to integrate new immigrants into the American national community. Traditionally, one successful answer has been to encourage immigrants to learn our language, culture, history, and civic traditions. New immigrants would then be invited become citizens and welcomed as full members of the community.
However, a concerted effort is underway to gain acceptance for, and implement, the idea that the United States should allow new immigrants to vote without becoming citizens. It is mounted by an alliance that brings together progressive academics, law professors, local and state political leaders, and community activists, all working to decouple voting from American citizenship. Their effort show signs of success, but is it really in America's best interests to allow new immigrants to have the vote?
Their proposals have been much advocated, but little analyzed. Neither a polemic nor a whitewash, Stanley A. ISBNs for Noncitizen Voting and American Democracy are 9781442200043, 1442200049 and the print ISBNs are 9780742562653, 0742562654.
Additional ISBNs include 9780742562660.
