Select one citizenship or immigration policy from before 1964 [topic]. Write an essay that discusses the four items below:A) Name and describe the policy: What were its main features and stated goals?B) What was the context (social, economic, etc.) under which the policy was implemented? Why do you think that this policy was implemented?C) Did this policy have the intended effects? (e.g., The Hart-Cellar act of 1965 was designed to maintain a foreign-born population that was European in origin through its provisions on family reunification and skills-based preferences. However, most immigrants since 1965 are from non-European countries, so this policy did not actually have the intended effect.) Are there features of this policy that you think should be implemented in the future? Why or why not?D) How is this policy implicated in contemporary ideas of “illegality,” citizenship, and undocumented immigrants’ position within American society?(Breakdown of the essay prompt and three sources required are attached and linked.)
