About In a New Land: A Comparative View of Immigration

"A luminous synthesis that, through astute comparisons, sheds a bright light on key questions about immigration. In a New Land is utterly refreshing." --Richard Alba, co-author of Remaking the American Mainstream: Assimilation and Contemporary Immigration "In a New Land is full of fresh information and new interpretations. Most remarkable is Nancy Foner's command of the vast social scientific and historical literature that bears on her subject. In a New Land sets a new standard for interdisciplinary comparative studies." --George M. Fredrickson, author of Racism: A Short History "In this engaging and insightful book, Nancy Foner brings a comparative lens to the analysis of contemporary immigration in the United States. Building on her work over the past three decades, Foner’s ‘trans-temporal, trans-urban, and trans-national’ comparisons offer fresh perspectives on assimilation, racism, and the diverse transformations of immigrants and their children and of the urban and national contexts that absorb them." --Rub?n G. Rumbaut, co-author of Immigrant America: A Portrait Drawing on a wealth of historical and contemporary research, and written in a clear and lively style, In a New Land provides fresh insights into the dynamics of immigration today and the implications for where we are headed in the future. Centering her analysis on New York City, Nancy Foner focuses on race and ethnicity, gender, and transnational connections. Through an original comparative approach, Foner contrasts today's Latin American, Asian, and Caribbean newcomers with eastern and southern European immigrants a century ago and with immigrants in other major U.S. cities. Looking beyond the U.S., the book compares West Indian immigrants in New York with those in London. And, more generally, it views the process of immigrants’ integration in New York against other recent immigrant destinations in Europe.
