Book excerpt: This report contains articles on the US Select Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy, which was appointed by Congress in 1980. There are seven articles which cover the following areas: a) the history of the Commission; b) national immigration policy; c) the law-enforcement approach to immigration control; d) legal implications of the Commission's final report; e) visa regulations; f) immigration reform; and g) the moral basis for immigration reform. The editors point out that, although the Commission's report itself revealed deep divisions among members on several issues, (such as the US admission and quota policies and the status of refugees), the US Congress had formulated legislation based on the report's recommendations. They urge a re-evaluation of the Commission's recommendations before measures based upon them become law.
