Immigration Policy in the US and UK in the aftermath of 9/11:a comparison.

Abstract

This research investigates the reforms that American and British immigration policies witnessed in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. It seeks to investigate the reasons behind the dramatic change that took place in the American and British societies towards newcomers and whether 9/11 is the main reason leading these new measures. This research also compares the different regulations applied to immigration policies in the UK and the US in order to maintain more safety, such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the UK Terrorism Act, and analyzes their impact on various aspects of immigration, including border control, visa regulations, and the rights of immigrants. The study highlights the need for further research to assess the long-term effects of these policies on immigrant communities and to evaluate their effectiveness in achieving their intended goals. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of considering public opinion, human rights considerations, and data availability in future studies. By conducting in-depth research and fostering collaborations, policymakers, and scholars can make informed decisions and promote a balanced approach to immigration management and social integration in the aftermath of 9/11
