Abstract: | This paper deals with a sanctions policy toward reducing illegal immigration. Using a single-period game, it shows that by
imposing a penalty on each apprehended illegal alien, the host country will increase the motivation of the source country
to expend money for preventing illegal immigration. It is also shown that although the sanctions are allowed to go only one
way, by increasing the efficiency of catching illegal aliens, both parties will be motivated to expend money for restraining
illegal immigration.
