Description
The United States' approach to refugees since World War II has been shaped by a complex interplay of competing policies and principles. In "Calculated Kindness", Gil Loescher and John A. Scanlan examine the tensions between ideological opportunities, ethnic interests, humanitarianism, restrictionism, and foreign policy objectives, revealing a selective approach to refugee acceptance by the Federal government.
