This reference surveys migration and immigration past and present in 14 representative countries. Historical, social, political, and economic consequences of migration are considered. Students and researchers will find the synthesis indispensable and the format ideal for comparisons.''The collective analysis of the contributors, who hail from a range of disciplines, ultimately defies the simple characterization of migration as a choice of people seeking better income opportunities. The authors are sensitive to the ways that race, class, and gender dynamics influence the composition of migratory flows, the reasons why people migrate, and the outcomes of population movements. Each chapter explicates the human cost of migration, giving readers a better understanding of social issues underlying migration at the beginning of the 21st century. 410 0$aWorld view of social issues. 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aMigration, Internal 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aMigration, Internal. 676 $a304.8/2 701 $aAlicea$b Marixsa$f1960-$01798343 701 $aToro-Morn$b Maura I$g(Maura Isabel),$f1961-$01798344 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970404103321 996 $aMigration and immigration$94341048 997 $aUNINA
