Making America 1920 Once again? Nativism and U.s.a. Immigration, By and Nowadays

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This paper surveys the history of nativism in the United states of america from the late nineteenth century to the present. It compares a recent surge in nativism with earlier periods, particularly the decades leading up to the 1920s, when nativism directed against southern and eastern European, Asian, and Mexican migrants led to comprehensive legislative restrictions on immigration. It is based primarily on a review of historical literature, also equally contemporary immigration scholarship. Major findings include the following:

  • In that location are many similarities between the nativism of the 1870-1930 period and today, especially the focus on the purported disability of specific immigrant groups to digest, the misconception that they may therefore be dangerous to the native-born population, and fear that immigration threatens American workers.
  • Mexican migrants in particular take been consistent targets of nativism, clearing restrictions, and deportations.
  • In that location are besides cardinal differences between these two eras, near apparently in the targets of nativism, which today are undocumented and Muslim immigrants, and in President Trump's consistent, highly public, and widely disseminated appeals to nativist sentiment.
  • Historical studies of nativism propose that nativism does not disappear completely, just rather subsides. Furthermore, immigrants themselves can and do prefer nativist attitudes, as well as their descendants.
  • Politicians, authorities officials, civic leaders, scholars and journalists must do more than to reach sectors of gild that experience almost threatened by immigration.
  • While eradicating nativism may be impossible, a focus on fugitive or overturning nativist immigration legislation may bear witness more successful.
