Threatened Peoples Threatened Borders: World Migration and U.S. Policy

Topic(s)


This 1994 Assembly was written in the wake of disturbing international emergencies in Bosnia, Haiti, Rwanda, and other nations.  The report advocated identifying instruments of U.S. foreign policy that can reduce unwanted migration, with promotion of human rights and achievement of democracy at the top of the list.  A book by the same title was published by The American Assembly the following year.
