TORRE-CANTALAPIEDRA, Eduardo e SCHIAVON, Jorge A.. To Act or Not to Act: Comparing the Role of the States of Chiapas and Arizona in Managing Immigration. Norteamérica [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.1, pp.159-189. ISSN 2448-7228. https://doi.org/10.20999/nam.2016.a006.
Setting immigration policy is reserved for the federal government in both Mexico and the United States. However, de facto, the states in both countries carry out certain immigration policies. Chiapas and Arizona have both faced challenges in this area. The government of Arizona has followed an anti-immigrant logic, while the government of Chiapas has focused on the defense of migrants' human rights. The aim of this article is to understand the practically opposite roles played by these two states in managing immigration.
