Fujiwara argues that these measures redefined immigrants as outsiders whose lack of citizenship was used to deem them ineligible for public benefits. At once astute policy analysis and insightful research, Mothers without Citizenship offers nuance to the discussion of the consequences of social policy on Asian immigrant communities. 606 $aWomen immigrants$xServices for$zUnited States 606 $aAsian American women$xServices for$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xServices for$zUnited States 606 $aPublic welfare$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen immigrants$xServices for 615 0$aAsian American women$xServices for 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xServices for 615 0$aPublic welfare 676 $a362.83/9 700 $aFujiwara$b Lynn$f1964-$0976469 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454450703321 996 $aMothers without citizenship$92224400 997 $aUNINA
