Race and Immigration in the United States: New Histories de Paul Spickard

Race and Immigration in the United States: New Histories

Autor Paul Spickard
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 iul 2011
Race and Immigration in the United States is a collection of the very best of the new generation of scholarship in the field of immigration history. The traditional Ellis Island model of immigrant assimilation is no longer adequate to understand American history. A more subtle model is needed – one which does not exclude peoples of color from view, nor treat the experiences of European immigrants as a template for the experiences of non-white migrants. In this important collection, Paul Spickard draws together essays that illuminate the crucial differences that race makes in the study of American history.
Bringing the insight of ethnic studies scholarship into the history of immigration, Race and Immigration in the United States is an essential collection for anyone studying ethnicity and immigration in American history.

Recenzii

"Paul Spickard's Race and Immigration in the United States is essential reading for scholars and students engaged in the important questions of immigration, race, and American identity. Taken together, the essays take aim at cherished myths and long-held historical interpretations and begin to redefine United States history."
Andrew Kersten, Professor of U.S. History, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay
"The strength of Race and Immigration in the United States is editor Spickard’s judicious selection of essays. The authors assembled here are leading scholars and theorists of (im)migration to the United States whose various re-conceptualizations of the standard ‘Ellis Island’ paradigm have re-invigorated the field of American immigration history in the past decade. Brought together here, they offer a fresh approach to the subject for students and scholars thinking about the American past in the twenty-first century."
Patrick Ettinger, Associate Professor of History, California State University, Sacramento
"Paul Spickard has compiled this exceptional collection of previously published articles concerning aspects of immigration issues from the colonial period to the present era. ... This collection of essays is quite provocative, enriched by impressive endnotes and bibliographies, and opening many lines of communication and unified action with parallels past and present."
The Journal of American History
