Back to Superior --Notes --IndexThe impetus behind California's Proposition 187 clearly reflects the growing anti-immigrant sentiment in this country. Many Americans regard today's new immigrants as not truly American, as somehow less committed to the ideals on which the country was founded. In clear, precise terms, Bill Ong Hing considers immigration in the context of the global economy, a sluggish national economy, and the hard facts about downsizing. Importantly, he also confronts the emphatic claims of immigrant supporters that immigrants do assimilate, take jobs that native workers don't want, and contribute more to the tax coffers than they take out of the system. A major contribution of Hing's book is its emphasis on such often-overlooked issues as the competition between immigrants and African Americans, inter-group tension, and ethnic separatism, issues constantly brushed aside both by immigrant rights groups and the anti-immigrant right. Drawing on Hing's work as a lawyer deeply involved in the day-to-day life of his immigrant clients, To Be An American is a unique blend of substantive analysis, policy, and personal experience.Critical America.AcculturationUnited StatesImmigrantsUnited StatesCultural pluralismUnited StatesUnited StatesEthnic relationsAcculturationImmigrantsCultural pluralism305.800973MS 1235rvkHing Bill Ongauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1179389DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910213819403321To Be An American2866875UNINA02349nam0 22004933i 450 SBL002076020251003044348.0IT78-1291 20020618d1976 ||||0itac50 baitaitaitz01i xxxe z01nz01ncRDAcarrierBorghesia industriale e Democrazia cristianasviluppo economico e mediazione politica dalla ricostruzione agli anni '70Giancarlo ProvasiBariDe Donato[1976]307 p.21 cm.Movimento operaio39001RAV00433212001 Movimento operaio39Borghesia industriale e Democrazia cristianaUBO4799508CFIV073019202136Democrazia cristianaPolitica1950-1970FIRSBLC014593ICapitalismoItalia1950-1970FIRSBLC014592I330.122SISTEMI ECONOMICI.
