| Abstract
|
:
|
Examines the experiences of a range of ethnic groups in both historical and contemporary context, beginning by laying out a conceptual framework that integrates immigration theory; globalization; transnational community formation; and urban, cultural, and economic geography. The contributors then present a set of case studies of key ethnic and racial communities--including those of long-standing significance such as Native Americans, African Americans, and Mexican Americans, along with the Latin American and Asian groups that make up the vast majority of newer immigrants. From publisher description.
