Textul de pe ultima copertă

"This is a wonderfully nuanced case study of the formative period in U.S. immigration policy between the Civil War and the end of World War II. Estelle T. Lau highlights how immigrant identity formation was a two-way process involving both the immigrants and the relentless efforts of immigration officials to exclude them. She deftly and incisively uses her case study to illuminate the evolution of U.S. immigration policy overall."--Edward O. Laumann, George Herbert Mead Distinguished Service Professor of Sociology, University of Chicago
