Immigration, the political, economic, cultural, etc. of individuals. It is because of the reasons that they are moving to another place. Social policy is the whole of the decisions that the state takes and the policies it applies to the people’s well-being. The elements that cause immigration influence the social policy field. In the same way, the consequences of migration also shape their understanding and practices of social policy. In this study, John Steinbeck’s work, The Angry Vines, will discuss the causes and consequences of migration from a social-political perspective. After the concepts of immigration and social policy will be explained, the relationship between immigration and social policy will be placed. The reasons for the immigration will be studied under the 1929 Economic Storm, (Dust Bowl) Sand Storm and machinery in agriculture titles. The consequences of the migration will be presented in the axis of social exclusion, replacement labour army, unemployment, poverty issues. The study concluded that migration should create the social policy practices of the host country taking into account immigrants. Without a doubt, the balance of the services offered to different sections in a society will ensure social justice and peace.
