    New Press, The 2011; US$ 26.95

    Today?s polarized debates over immigration revolve around a set of one-dimensional characters and unchallenged stereotypes. Yet the resulting policy prescriptions, not least of them Arizona?s draconian new law SB 1070, are dangerously real and profoundly counterproductive. A major new antidote to this trend, Living ?Illegal? is an ambitious new... more...

  • Transnational Marriageby Katharine Charsley

    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 125.00

    Marriages spanning borders are not a new phenomenon, but occur with increasing frequency and contribute substantially to international mobility and transnational engagement.

  • Partnerschaftszufriedenheit von Deutschen und türkischen Migrantenby Sabine Gründler

    Springer 2012; US$ 54.99

    Sind in Deutschland lebende türkische Paare zufriedener als deutsche Paare? Oder sind türkische Paare aufgrund ihrer sozioökonomischen Deprivation „krisenanfälliger“ und daher unzufriedener?

  • Migration and Organized Civil Societyby Dirk Halm; Zeynep Sezgin

    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 135.00

    Throughout human history people have moved across national borders. With the advent of globalization, they are now moving in record numbers in search of greater security or better livelihoods.

  • Global Crossingsby Alvaro Vargas Llosa

    Independent Institute 2013; US$ 16.99

    Migration has been happening, in varying forms, for millennia but it still elicits fear and mistrust, and not just on the part of the ?receiving? society. Communities from where people migrate often disapprove of the migrants? decision and consider it treacherous. The recent reawakening of the debate about migration in the new millennium has evoked... more...

Unique and practical, this is a nonclinical work that will help Asian Americans... more...

  • The Emergence of Everythingby Harold J. Morowitz

    Oxford University Press 2000; US$ 19.99

Photographs... more...
