  • Title: [The United States: a secure frontier and identity controls?].
    Author: Ceyhan A.
    Journal: Cult Confl; 1997; (26-27):235-54. PubMed ID: 12294773.
    Abstract:
    The author examines the concept of "the frontier" in American history, and particularly the process of change over time whereby a generally positive attitude toward immigration to the United States has gradually changed to the current attitude, in which uncontrolled immigration is increasingly viewed as a growing security threat. The difference between the way the U.S. authorities attempt to control migration across the country's northern and southern borders is noted.
