Sommario/riassunto

Within this collection, American and Mexican policy-oriented migration experts provide an up-to-date, binational analysis of Mexico-U.S. migration. They recommend specific forms of bilateral collaboration to regulate the flow, improve conditions for the migrants, and make sure that migration has positive social and economic impacts on both



countries.
