Joseph E. Falit grew up in a small, Connecticut town called Cheshire in the United States of America. In June of 2007, he graduated from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. Over the past two years, through his role as an asylum advocate, Joe has represented undocumented residents through the auspices of the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic. Joe has served as special assistant to Professor Deborah Anker, Director of HIRC, and he studied U.S. immigration policy under Dr. Douglas Massey, a proverbial expert in the field. He is currently in Maputo, Mozambique on a Princeton University Fellowship, working for a small NGO called Jacana.
In his spare time, Joe loves to travel, hike, read, practice speaking Portuguese, and discuss foreign affairs.

This ambitious work analyzes the immigration policy followed in the past century in the United States and makes an effort to create a coherent framework for reform. After reviewing the last century of immigration laws, Falit goes on to present the use of a moral and economic based lens for analysis. Falit then uses this lens to analyze recently implemented immigration policies, focusing largely on the era following IRCA.
In the last chapter, Falit proffers well-reasoned policy recommendations. This innovative and carefully researched novel was originally presented to the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University as an undergraduate thesis. Falit believes that politicians and Americans can continue to fear foreigners and subsequently avoid change, even when that change ought to be considered “progress” but unless America moves from the closed-door policies of today to the liberal immigration regime of tomorrow, it may remain as narrow-minded as its forefathers.
If one is looking to become acquainted with the immigration policy debate in the U.S., including relevant historical data, then look no further than Falit's book.
