- Synopsis
- In this reference for readers high school level and above, Bailey, a writer and editor, examines the underlying motivations that influence people to leave their countries and the cultural, financial, and social contributions immigrants and migrants offer their adopted countries. He details the difficulties they face dealing with racial bias, assimilation, and illegal immigration, and offers a historical overview. The book also provides an outline of current immigration policy in the United States, Mexico, the Philippines, France, and South Africa; a how-to chapter on researching immigration and migration; a glossary: and a chronology of immigration and migration from pre-history to the present.
