Chapter Chapter 1 in Economic Development Implications of the Venezuelan Migrant Crisis, 2022, pp 1-42 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter looks at the historical experience of immigration to and within the Americas hemisphere. It makes the case that this history of societies and the established pattern of mingling of peoples, makes the hemisphere unique and establishes the societies that make up the Western Hemisphere, as immigrant societies par excellence and, therefore, creates the context for acceptance and tolerance of migration and immigrants. It examines the Venezuelan crisis of refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants against that background as it attempts to put the current Venezuelan crisis in context.
