  • Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Handbook on Transnationalism

    Book SynopsisTrade Review‘In this rich compendium, Yeoh and Collins bring together leading scholars of transnationalism to look afresh at this important topic. Exploring both new empirical cases and new concepts, the authors provide novel insights into transnational relations and processes. This is a must-read book for those interested in cross-border interactions in the contemporary era.’ -- Katharyne Mitchell, University of California, Santa Cruz, US‘Since the turn of the millennium, transnationalism has gradually taken its place as a key concept in social science. This welcome new Handbook provides fresh overviews alongside critical advances concerning a range of ever-salient, if not increasingly significant, theoretical understandings of transformative cross-border phenomena.’ -- Steven Vertovec, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity, Germany‘An up-to-date, invaluable mapping of the causes and consequences of social life across borders. The contributions to this volume go far beyond mobility and migration. They use a transnational lens to understand a range of institutions, processes, and relationships that have not been brought together before, including youth, labor unions, urbanization, and emotions. By doing so, they challenge fundamental assumptions about how identity, community, governance, and rights actually work in this early part of the twenty-first century. Theoretically rich and carefully argued, this Handbook is a welcome synthesis of this ever-more-present, dynamic understanding of social relations.’ -- Peggy Levitt, Wellesley College, US‘This is an invaluable collection of voices from the field of transnationalism research. The volume offers a rich new lexicon based on innovative case studies that will set the agenda for conceptualising transnationalism in years to come.’ -- Parvati Raghuram, The Open University, UKTable of ContentsContents: 1 Introduction to Handbook on Transnationalism 1 Brenda S.A.

    Book SynopsisThis Handbook presents current and future studies on the changing dynamics of the role of immigrants and the impact of immigration, across the United States and industrialized and developing nations. It covers the changing dynamics of race, ethnicity, and immigration, and discusses how it all contributes to variations in crime, policing, and the overall justice system. Through acknowledging that some groups, especially people of color, are disproportionately influenced more than others in the case of criminal justice reactions, the War on Drugs, and hate crimes; this Handbook introduces the importance of studying race and crime so as to better understand it. It does so by recommending that researchers concentrate on ethnic diversity in a national and international context in order to broaden their demographic and expand their understanding of how to attain global change. Featuring contributions from top experts in the field, The Handbook of Race and Crime is presented in five sectionsATable of ContentsNotes on Contributors ix Introduction: Past, Present, and Future 1Meghan E.

For racial minority immigrants in the United States, trauma can have both historical and ongoing sources. Today’s immigrants face a dangerous mix of rising nationalism and xenophobia, alarming rates of displacement within and across nations, war, trafficking, terrorism, and deportation. Multiple traumas stem from these experiences and can be exacerbated by interpersonal violence and other forms of marginalization within communities.This book examines the lasting impact of trauma for racial minority immigrants and subsequent generations.

In the decades to come, thanks to ongoing conflict, violence, political instability and the effects of climate change, these numbers will only rise.This book adopts a broad perspective of psychological science, encompassing both causal and normative behavior, to explore topics related to immigration including gentrification, 'crimmigration,' and trust between immigrants and host-society authorities.To some, immigrants represent a threat to the established population''s jobs, standard of living, communities, culture, language, and safety. Others view immigrants as offering economic benefits to society including new sources of labor and consumption, and new technical skills and knowledge--not to mention the economic and personal benefits immigrants and their families might gain as well.While most immigrants leave their home counTable of Contents Contributors Chapter 1.

  • A Midwestern Mosaic

    Temple University Press,U.S. A Midwestern Mosaic

    Book SynopsisHow native-born rural adolescents adapt to new immigrants in their communitiesTrade Review"A Midwestern Mosaic makes important contributions to several literatures. To political scientists, the book offers insights about the roles of time and racial context in the political socialization of adolescents and the importance of systematically analyzing rural politics. Contributions to immigration research focusing on non-traditional destinations includes information about how quickly adolescents can adapt to demographic change, the emphasis on political socialization, and the formal comparison of immigrant-receiving communities that, on their face, might appear to be quite similar. [Lay's] qualitative data also yield important insights about what high schools and other institutions in rapidly changing communities can do to encourage positive relationships between long-time residents and newcomers. For all of these reasons, this book will be of great interest to scholars, community leaders, policymakers, and others."--International Migration Review, Spring 2013 "A Midwestern Mosaic is well ahead of the curve. This book provides a comparative community case study of the implications of new minority growth in two new Hispanic rural destinations in Northwest Iowa... A Midwestern Mosaic provides an empirical benchmark on an important topic... [I]t is as much about racial and ethnic attitudes as it is about rural political socialization or the potential casual mechanisms that contribute to evolving attitudes (movement along the continuum between political left and right) among native-born rural youth and adolescents. In the end, A Midwestern Mosaic probably raises more (good) questions than it answers, but this is a positive feature of this short book." - Contemporary SociologyTable of ContentsA Midwestern Mosaic: Immigration and Political Socialization in Rural America; J.

    Temple University Press,U.S. Illegal Migrations and the Huckleberry Finn

    Book SynopsisIf you knew a runaway slave or an undocumented immigrant, would you tell?Trade Review"Park proposes a unique and innovative way to approach the quagmire of immigration reform. He uses the framework that Mark Twain used when presenting the dilemma of what is the proper response to a runaway slave and a young abandoned boy. It is Park's contention that there is much to be learned from comparing the current problems of illegal immigrants with those of fugitive slaves in antebellum America... He finds interesting linkages between the past mistreatment of people of color and what is happening today. The author pays some attention to the legal, educational, moral, and labor repercussions of the treatment of 'illegals.' Park's work is timely, well written, and extensively documented. It should find a wide audience among academics and the general population.
