What effects did World War 1 have on immigration policy and attitudes towards immigrants?

World War I significantly influenced immigration policy and attitudes towards immigrants, leading to increased suspicion and xenophobia, particularly towards those from enemy nations. In the U.S., this culminated in stricter immigration laws, such as the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, which limited the number of immigrants based on national origins. The war fostered a climate of nationalism, prompting many countries to adopt more restrictive measures and prioritize native populations over newcomers, reshaping the perception of immigrants as potential threats rather than contributors to society.
