Summary: The Sociology of Immigration provides students with a contemporary sociological perspective on the entire immigration process: deciding to leave one’s home country, establishing oneself in a new host society, being received by the host population, and deciding whether to assimilate or seek citizenship. Using historical and contemporary examples, it applies many foundational concepts in sociology, such as culture, socialization, race and ethnicity, gender, and the sociological imagination, to the phenomenon of human migration. The text introduces immigration and migration on a global scale, but also emphasizes immigration in a U.S. context. https://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/the-sociology-of-immigration/book273419
