While newcomers are harbingers of change, host nations also participate in how new populations are incorporated into their social and political fabric. Bringing together a transcontinental group of anthropologists, this book provides an in-depth look at the current processes of immigration, political behavior, and citizenship in both the United States and Europe. Essays draw on issues of race, national identity, religion, and more, while addressing questions, including: How should citizenship be defined? In what ways do immigrants use the political process to achieve group aims? And, how do adults and youth learn to become active participants in the public sphere? Among numerous case studies, examples include instances of racialized citizenship in ?Algerian France,? Ireland?s new citizenship laws in response to asylum-seeking mothers, the role of Evangelical Christianity in creating a space for the construction of an identity that transcends state borders, and the Internet as one of the new public spheres for the expression of citizenship, be it local, national, or global. 606 $aImmigrants$xPolitical activity$zUnited States 606 $aImmigrants$zEurope$xPolitical activity 606 $aPolitical participation$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical participation$zEurope 606 $aCitizenship$zUnited States 606 $aCitizenship$zEurope 607 $aUnited States$xEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects 607 $aEurope$xEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects 615 0$aImmigrants$xPolitical activity 615 0$aImmigrants$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aPolitical participation 615 0$aPolitical participation 615 0$aCitizenship 615 0$aCitizenship 676 $a323.3/2912094 701 $aReed-Danahay$b Deborah$0625833 701 $aBrettell$b Caroline$01089894 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782369203321 996 $aCitizenship, political engagement, and belonging$93800510 997 $aUNINA
