Reviews

Song's desire to advance a controlled borders and open doors (p. 190) theory of immigrant justice will resonate with those who believe that democratic values themselves can provide an ethico-political framework for immigrant justice. * Liza B. Williams, Perspectives on Politics * Professor Song brings an intellectual rigor to this project that is most admirable, and her writing is clear, accessible, and free of jargon, all of which makes this work an excellent choice for a wide audience. * Michael K. Romano, Law and Politics Book Review *
