Bill
Ong Hing. Ethical borders : NAFTA, globalization, and Mexican migration.
Temple University Press, 2010. JV6465.H56
2010 This book examines the relationship between NAFTA,
globalization, and undocumented migration. The author contends that reforming
NAFTA is vital to ameliorating much of the poverty that drives undocumented
immigration and argues for a spectrum of changes, including a new vision of
border enforcement, a broader view of the visa system, a path to citizenship
for undocumented migrants, and consideration of a guest worker program. |

R.M. Verchick. Facing catastrophe : environmental action for a
post-Katrina world. Harvard University Press, 2010. GE180.V47
2010 This book provides a new perspective on disaster law that is based on the principles of environmental protection. The author argues that government must assume a stronger regulatory role in managing natural infrastructure, distributional fairness, and public risk and proposes changes to federal statutes governing environmental impact assessments, wetlands development, air emissions, and flood control, among others. |
