U.S. IMMIGRATION: HISTORY, LAW, AND POLITICS

2025 Fall Term

3 Units [GE, HC]

History 329

This course covers major moments of immigration throughout U.S. history, beginning with colonial settlement and moving forward to twentieth century restrictions on immigration and twenty-first century debates about immigration reform. It examines how immigration law has defined the United States as a nation (i.e., a nation of immigrants, a gate-keeping nation, and more recently, a deportation nation) and how seemingly natural features of American life, such as passports, visas, green cards, national borders, and what it means to be an American, were created and have changed throughout U.S. history.
