In theory, the advent of independent regulatory bodies represented another shift-an attempt to put congressional delegation in the service of Hamiltonian steady administration. But in practice, independent commissions were a means of expanding federal legislative capacity without augmenting executive discretion. Congress sought not so much to secure administrative expertise as to obstruct presidential control. The remainder of the twentieth century has seen a corresponding defense of executive removal manifested in the growing jurisprudential influence of unitary executive theory. In a laudable effort to remain above the fray, the authors disclaim any effort to settle the removal controversy, even concluding that no coherent middle ground exists between the unitary executive and congressional delegation positions. Yet their narrative suggests otherwise. Congressional delegation has lost its teeth; the legislative supremacy that Whigs pined for is a dead letter. At the same time, the Roberts Court majority that embraced unitary executive theory in the PCAOB case evinced no intention of dismantling administrative independence, even going so far as to reaffirm Humphrey's Executor. The controversy has shifted decisively away from the validity of presidential removal and toward the narrower factual question of how to identify principal executive officers. But this is quibbling. The Contested Removal Power deserves high praise. Alvis, Bailey, and Taylor successfully marry constitutional analysis and historical institutionalism, a model worthy of emulation. Implicit in such an interdisciplinary analysis is the assumption that constitutional decisions are at once contingent upon a host of contextual factors and yet guided by durable commitments to constitutional forms and principles. The result is a study that will prove useful, if not indispensible, to historians, lawyers, and political scientists alike.

Then, after the parent(s) have achieved some degree of stability in the United States, the children follow. Using qualitative and quantitative methods, we examined the hypothesis that separation during migration results in problems at school after re-unification. We find that children separated from parents during migration are more likely to be behind others their age in school and are more likely to drop out of high school.

Se intenta mostrar las diferencias entre la constitucion y desarrollo de las organizaciones de las mujeres de las minorias chicanas y negras con las organizaciones de lucha y objetivos de las organizaciones de las mujeres blancas de clase media. El trabajo es descriptivo en parte de los comienzos del feminismo blanco y de las mujeres de las minorias pero al mismo tiempo trata de elucidar la peculiar situacion de las mujeres de color. Estas tienen, como las revolucionarias marxistas de los paises del tercer mundo, el dilema de las prioridades de la patria-pueblo-raza y la identidad de genero. Negociaciones implicitas y explicitas toman cuenta de esta situacion de ambivalencia.

Frontiers of Economics and Globalization, 2010

ABSTRACT For many immigrants, especially those from Central America and Mexico, it is common for ... more ABSTRACT For many immigrants, especially those from Central America and Mexico, it is common for a mother or father (or both) to migrate to the United States and leave their children behind. Then, after the parent(s) have achieved some degree of stability in the United States, the children follow. In our previous research, we found that children separated from parents during migration are more likely to be behind others their age in school, are more likely to repeat a grade, and are more likely to drop out of high school. The negative impact of separation during migration on educational success is largest for children separated from their mothers (in contrast to fathers), for those whose parents have lived in the United States illegally, and for those who reunited with parents as teenagers (rather than at younger ages).In this chapter, we suggest public policies to help immigrant children separated from parents during migration to succeed in U.S. schools. The policies that we discuss are based on focus group discussions with parents separated from their children during migration, interviews with psychologists and school administrators, and an online survey of elementary and high school teachers.
