North American Integration: An Institutional Void in Migration, Security and Development examines the current state of North American integration. Editors Gaspare M. Genna and David A. Mayer-Foulkes gather an international group of experts to give a broad, coherent picture of the current, multifaceted process of integration, and find that institutional development is an essential component. Divided into three sections, the book:
- Discuss the determinants of integration and shows that the institutional characteristics of the three countries, including democracy and basic rights, are the most important.
- Provides examples of institutional building in contexts for which institutions are lacking, specifically labor, migration and health issues.
- Examines issues such as overall security arrangements, trade, drug related violence, energy, and the continuing wage gap among the countries, which have an important bearing on integration.
