Topic: Immigration in Mexico


  
  Immigration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A good example of the former is all the immigrants from Mexico and Central American counties who live in the United States, while a good example of the latter is the many retired British ex-pats who choose to make their life in Spain.
Others disagree, believing that overly restrictive immigration policies and practices would not address the economic demand for work emanating from wealthier countries, would not harm the security or cohesiveness of the country, and would endanger the lives of legitimate refugees from political or racial oppression.
Some environmentalists concerned with overpopulation favor limiting immigration as a means of isolating the effects of human population growth, while others argue that overpopulation and environmental degradation are global problems that should be addressed by other methods.

 The Population of Mexico from origins to revolution
Rapid urbanization in Mexico is a phenomenon of the twentieth-century.
Mexico City serves as an example, although its series is confounded by a lack of true rates and the reality of demographic growth through migration (Figure 8).
Mexico’s high-pressure system in 1910, notwithstanding the demographic changes occurring over the previous century, was more akin to what had existed when Mexicans fought for independence from Spain—indeed closer to what the Mexica experienced before Christians invaded almost 400 years earlier—than to conditions of the late twentieth-century.

 Mexico Encourages Illegal Immigration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
On the surface, Mexico is indeed laden with extreme poverty.
Mexico has a lot of poverty, yes, but it's not "poor." In terms of the potential to obliterate much of that poverty, Mexico has one of the greatest capacities in all of the Americas to do just that.
"Mexico is the richest nation in Latin America when measured by GDP, and by a wide margin: in 2001, Mexico's GDP was the highest in Latin America, a substantial 22.5 percent more than runner-up Brazil," writes Walker.

 The Dartmouth Free Press : Immigration from Mexico
Immigration from Mexico poses challenges to our policies and to our identity in a way nothing else has in the past.
Mexico is undergoing its first generation or so of their industrial revolution.
In a new study published by the Center for Immigration Studies, a closer look at the data from the 2000 Census concludes that unskilled immigration from Mexico — illegal or legal — reduces the wages for the lowest paid workers and creates large fiscal costs for taxpayers, all without generating significant economic benefits.

 Mexico Outreach - Immigration FM3 FAQ
Mexico Outreach will only facilitate the process by giving you the most recent information and making the contact with the Mexican church and attorney in Mexico, but every other part of the process is your responsibility.
First notify Mexico Outreach of your intentions to apply for an FM3 so we can guide you through the guidelines and check your paperwork before it is submitted.

 Mexico’s Undiplomatic Diplomats by Heather Mac Donald, City Journal Autumn 2005
Mexico’s governing class is not content simply to unload the victims of its failed policies on the U.S., however.
Mexico’s border police have reportedly engaged in rapes, robberies, and beatings of illegal aliens from Central and South America on their way to the U.S. Yet compared with the extensive immigrant-advocacy network in the U.S., few pressure groups exist in Mexico to protest such treatment.
Mexico’s foreign ministry turned the beating into an international human rights incident, attributing it to “discriminatory attitudes that lead to institutional violence.” Mexican diplomats formally protested to state and federal officials, and helped the two beaten Mexicans file multimillion-dollar lawsuits against the deputies and Riverside County.

 World Press Review - Central American Immigration Drugs - Mexico
According to this Guatemalan official, the reinforcement of anti-immigration actions on the border between Guatemala and Mexico is the initial stage of the Southern Plan in Mexico.
Simultaneous operations throughout the entire border with Mexico, conducted by the Guatemalan Department of Immigration with the support of the Civilian National Police, concluded in the same period with the detention and deportation of 3,666 people from Guatemala.
While the director for immigration maintained that this plan has already started, the spokesman for the Foreign Ministry, Edgar Arana, assured us that Venceremos 2001 is a program distinct from the Southern Plan, concerning which, he asserted, the Guatemalan government has not received initial notification.

 Undue Influence -- the Government of Mexico and U.S. Immigration Policies   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
In Mexico, the media and political elite are obsessed with it, and their treatment of the subject portrays the United States in a most unfavorable light.
Mexico’s leading man of letters, Carlos Fuentes, referred positively to a “silent reconquista” of the United States through means of the Spanish language (The Siglo, October 20, 2001).
Mexico’s media/political elite now sees them as an opportunity to expand their influence in U.S. politics, to use it as a lever to gain influence in migration and trade issues.

Others, discouraged by a U.S. immigration system they believe appears set up to work against them, fear the program could be a trick to catch and deport family members already living in the United States.
Mexico has long sought a more comprehensive migration accord, but talks on the issue stalled out following the Sept. 11 terror attacks and remained more or less dead in the water until now.

 Immigration from Mexico Comes at High Cost
To this end, the Center for Immigration Studies has published Immigration from Mexico: Assessing the Impact on the United States by the Center's Director of Research, Steven A. Camarota.
Author Steven Camarota said of the findings, "Mexican immigration is overwhelmingly unskilled, and it is hard to make an economic argument for unskilled immigration, because it tends to reduce wages for workers who are already the lowest paid and whose real wages actually declined in the 1990s.
It is also absolutely essential that more effort be made to improve educational opportunities for their children so that they will have the skills necessary to compete in the modern American economy.

 Who killed California? | Pat Buchanan: Massive Immigration From Mexico - Stormfront White Nationalist Community   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
For what killed California as the golden land was massive and unrestricted immigration from the Third World, an unrepelled invasion from Mexico, and a failure to protect the U.S. manufacturing base and the wages of America's workers.
By failing to enforce our immigration laws, America now hosts 31 million legal immigrants and their children and 10 million illegals, most of them net tax consumers.
Unless we elect a president who will enforce our immigration laws and defend our borders, unless we find a Congress that will jettison the free-trade madness that is denuding America of her manufacturing, what has happened to California will happen here.

 ParaPundit: Samuel P. Huntington Comes Out Against Immigration From Mexico
We need to deport the illegals, stop Hispanic immigration, and put both the need to maintain the existing culture and the advantage of much higher skilled and talented immigrants as key factors in determining who is eligible to immigrate to the United States.
Update: One argument made by defenders of massive immigration from Mexico is that the initial immigrants may not be well educated but the successive generations of their children and grandchildren will eventually approach US norms.
Immigration is omnipresent both in time and in all geographical regions, it was like that in the past, and will continue in the future.

 Worldandnation: Immigration from Mexico spikes
SASABE, Mexico - After a four-year decline, illegal immigration from Mexico is spiking as several thousand migrants a day rush across the border.
But in Mexico, the program has given many migrants hope that they might be able to seek something better north of the border, and that is enough to convince some to cross now rather than later.
Mark Krikorian, executive director for the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that favors stricter immigration policies, said the rise in illegal migration also shot up in 1986 when an amnesty was announced.

 SWEET AND SOUR TIMES ON THE BORDER - BY JOE CUMMINGS ON MEXICO CONNECT
To Mexico's credit, the government never enacted an equivalent to the U.S. Chinese Exclusion Act, which for a time prevented all persons of Chinese heritage from holding U.S. citizenship.
Mexicali quickly became a refuge for Chinese fleeing the violence on both sides of the border, since in that Chinese-dominated city the clans were strong enough to protect their own.
Until Mexico severed diplomatic relations with the nationalist Taiwan government in the 1960s, Mexicali harboured a Taiwan consulate, which became a magnet for overseas Chinese travelling between the U.S. and Mexico.

 LP: Immigration strengthens Mexico's link to U.S.
The most obvious manifestation of that relationship is the level of immigration from Mexico into the United States: Close to 11 million Mexicans live here – about 4 percent of the U.S. population, but nearly 10 percent of Mexico's.
The explosive growth in immigration from Mexico began in the 1980s, and in more recent years, that exodus has had a broader effect on Mexico than in the past.

 Mayor says immigration keeps Mexico from social unrest   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Inequality in Mexico has not resulted in social unrest due to, among other things, Mexicans immigrating abroad and the responsibility of citizens, said Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the Mayor of Mexico City.
In agreeing with Cardinal Norberto Rivera Carrera, on the need to change Mexico’s economic model before there is a civil conflict, López Obrador said that the only explanation for people in Mexico not having protested in light of more than 20 years of economic stagnation is because escape valves, such as immigration, have been found.
On one hand the pressure is removed with regard to zero economic growth, and on the other those who are in the U.S. send about US$17 billion to Mexico annually.
