Abstract
The author discusses the impact of immigration on the demographic profile of the United States, with a focus on changes in the sources of immigration and the effect of U.S. migration policy. "The demographic destruction of the U.S. has been swift and dramatic. The transformation, made in constant contravention of popular mandate, has been unprecedented in the history of democratic societies. To better understand this phenomenon and the role which post-1965 immigration policy plays in it,...15 tables have been created and compiled from the official statistics of the U.S. Bureau of the Census and the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service." excerptKeywords: Americas; Attitude; Behavior; Demographic Factors; Demographic Impact; Developed Countries; International Migration; Migration; Migration Policy; North America; Northern America; Origin; Policy; Political Factors; Population; Population Characteristics; Population Dynamics; Population Policy; Psychological Factors; Public Opinion; Social Policy; Tables And Charts; United States
