Semblances of Sovereignty: The Constitution, the State, and American CitizenshipHarvard University Press, 30 Mei 2002 - 320 halaman In a set of cases decided at the end of the nineteenth century, the Supreme Court declared that Congress had "plenary power" to regulate immigration, Indian tribes, and newly acquired territories.

The Court left Congress free to craft policies of assimilation, exclusion, paternalism, and domination. |
