Swiss controls have been particularly effective in preventing the immigration of illegal foreign workers by making the employer the key instrument in the control process. During the 1945\u201362 period, the Swiss attempted to exploit the short-run economic advantages of foreign workers by admitting large numbers of such workers, a policy that produced many social, cultural, and political problems. By imposing tighter controls during the next twenty years, however, the Swiss were able to maximize the advantages of immigration, and minimize its disadvantages. The author argues that the Swiss experience offers valuable lessons to those currently debating immigration policy in the United States.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author(s) : M.
