Immigration Jurisprudence from the Dark Ages Toward the Light |
2 Journal of Legal Advocacy and Practice 51 (2000) |
We live in a nation with two dominant characteristics. One, we are a nation of immigrants. Two, we are a nation based on rights. So why are immigrants the last group to gain rights? Why are the archaic laws of our dark past being shielded from the light of progress that has touched all other areas of jurisprudence, but lags disgracefully behind in... |

14 Georgetown Immigration Law Journal 289 (Winter, 2000) |
Professor Jack Chin has written a provocative paper that, as is characteristic of his work, has much to commend to it.

Race and Immigration Law: a Paradigm Shift? |
2000 University of Illinois Law Review 517 (2000) |
For many years, controversies impacting many areas of legal scholarship have left the field of immigration law virtually untouched. Thus, although other areas of law have felt the critique advanced by critical scholars, immigration law has proceeded as a virtually self-contained unit. In doing so, immigration law has developed a paradigm for legal... |

Race, Immigration, and Legal Scholarship: a Response to Kevin Johnson |
2000 University of Illinois Law Review 603 (2000) |
The harshest measures of contemporary American immigration law disproportionately affect persons of color. At the same time, persons of color have become the primary subjects of migration to the United States and are thus the main beneficiaries of the substantial benefits the U.S. immigration system offers. The extent to which racism, conscious or... |
