Immigrants and the American Dream : Remaking the Middle Class, Hardback Book

Immigrants and the American Dream : Remaking the Middle Class Hardback

Hardback

Description

The United States has absorbed nearly 10 million immigrants in the past decade.

This book examines who the new immigrants are, where they live, and who among them are gaining entry into the American middle class.

Discussed are the complex factors that promote or hinder immigrant success, as well as the varying opportunities and constraints met by those living in particular regions.

Extensive data are synthesized on key dimensions of immigrant achievement: income level, professional status, and rates of homeownership and political participation.

Also provided is a balanced analysis of the effects of immigration on broader socioeconomic, geographic, and political trends.

Examining the extent to which contemporary immigrants are realizing the American dream, this book explores crucial policy questions and challenges that face our diversifying society.
