The growing Mexican population in the United State prompted the Mexican government to develop policies addressing the emigration process and protection of its expatriates on both sides of the U.S./Mexican border. This dissertation argues that emigration policies unfolded, at first, as reactions toward specific events, such as violence along the border and the growing economic interdependency between the two nations. Following the 1910-1920 Mexican Revolution, policy-making assumed a more pro-active agenda that aggressively sought to benefit the post-revolutionary state by promoting Mexican patriotism, encouraging the emigrant's return while simultaneously discouraging immigration. |
