Recenzii
Prema Kurien has written an enlightening book full of rich material on how Indian and South Asian activists become politically engaged in the United States. Providing careful, insightful, and in-depth analysis, Claiming Citizenship sheds new light on the role of religious, caste, and racial differences as well as transnational connections in immigrant and second-generation political mobilization.
At a time when Indian Americans are making an increasing impact in American politics, Prema Kurien has written an impressive book about how the South Asian and Indian US population has developed and expanded its civic participation. As a sociologist of religion, I found the book especially helpful in providing a strong argument about the distinctive ways in which race and religion have shaped this important development in our nation's public life.
