Rights in a Transnational Era --About the Contributors --IndexPunctuated by marches across the United States in the spring of 2006, immigrant rights has reemerged as a significant and highly visible political issue. Immigrant Rights in the Shadows of U.S. Citizenship brings prominent activists and scholars together to examine the emergence and significance of the contemporary immigrant rights movement. Contributors place the contemporary immigrant rights movement in historical and comparative contexts by looking at the ways immigrants and their allies have staked claims to rights in the past, and by examining movements based in different communities around the United States. Scholars explain the evolution of immigration policy, and analyze current conflicts around issues of immigrant rights; activists engaged in the current movement document the ways in which coalitions have been built among immigrants from different nations, and between immigrant and native born peoples. The essays examine the ways in which questions of immigrant rights engage broader issues of identity, including gender, race, and sexuality.Nation of newcomers.Social integrationGovernment policyUnited StatesHistoryImmigrantsGovernment policyUnited StatesHistoryImmigrantsCivil rightsUnited StatesHistoryConstitutional lawUnited StatesEmigration and immigration lawUnited StatesHistoryElectronic books.Social integrationGovernment policyHistory.ImmigrantsGovernment policyHistory.ImmigrantsCivil rightsHistory.Constitutional lawEmigration and immigration lawHistory.342.73082Buff Rachel Idaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1031003DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910480792803321Immigrant Rights in the Shadows of Citizenship2448168UNINA
