Over the last four decades, immigration from the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa to the U. S. has increased rapidly. In several states, African immigrants are now major drivers of growth in the black population. While social scientists and commentators have noted that these black immigrants' social and economic outcomes often differ from those of their native-born counterparts, few studies have carefully analyzed the mechanisms that produce these disparities. In Immigration and the Remaking of Black America, sociologist and demographer Tod Hamilton shows how immigration is reshaping black America. He weaves together interdisciplinary scholarship with new data to enhance our understanding of the causes of socioeconomic stratification among both the native-born and newcomers.Hamilton demonstrates that immigration from the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa is driven by selective migration, meaning that newcomers from these countries tend to have higher educational attainment than those who stay behind. As a result, they arrive in the U.S. with some advantages over native-born blacks, and, in some cases, over whites. He also shows the importance of historical context: prior to the Civil Rights Movement, black immigrants' socioeconomic outcomes resembled native-born blacks' much more closely, regardless of their educational attainment in their country of origin. Today, however, certain groups of black immigrants have better outcomes than native-born black Americans-such as lower unemployment rates and higher rates of homeownership-in part because they immigrated at a time of expanding opportunities for minorities and women in general. Hamilton further finds that rates of marriage and labor force participation among native-born blacks that move away from their birth states resemble those of many black immigrants, suggesting that some disparities within the black population stem from processes associated with migration, rather than from nativity alone.Hamilton argues that failing to account for this diversity among the black population can lead to incorrect estimates of the social progress made by black Americans and the persistence of racism and discrimination. He calls for future research on racial inequality to disaggregate different black populations. By richly detailing the changing nature of black America, Immigration and the Remaking of Black America helps scholars and policymakers to better understand the complexity of racial disparities in the twenty-first century. 606 $aImmigrants$zUnited States 606 $aBlack people$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aWest Indians$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aAfricans$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions 606 $aBlack people$zUnited States$xEconomic conditions 606 $aWest Indians$zUnited States$xEconomic conditions 606 $aAfricans$zUnited States$xEconomic conditions 606 $aAfrican Americans$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aImmigrants 615 0$aBlack people$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aWest Indians$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aAfricans$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aBlack people$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aWest Indians$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aAfricans$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xEconomic conditions. 676 $a305.896/073 700 $aHamilton$b Tod G.$01826422 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911008420003321 996 $aImmigration and the Remaking of Black America$94394413 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04725nam 22006855 450 001 9910999670203321 005 20250427130155.0 010 $a3-031-84270-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-84270-2 035 $a(CKB)38641745900041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-84270-2 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32029814 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32029814 035 $a(OCoLC)1518421729 035 $a(EXLCZ)9938641745900041 100 $a20250427d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAdapting Nations $eNational Resilience Between Contemporary Statehood and Identity /$fby Alon Helled, Carlo Pala 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (XXIX, 212 p. 3 illus.) 311 08$a3-031-84269-3 327 $aIntroduction.

Nations are resilient both within and outside the boundaries of statehood. Yet scholarship tends to downplay nationhood, as it focuses on the polity. As a consequence, the investigation of modern societies, though usually articulated around the nation-state model, falls into state-centrism, whilst neglecting the other side of the coin. This book initiates an interdisciplinary debate that encourages research in a field that has largely been overlooked in European social and political sciences. The analysis, offered by the authors, reinstates the concept of the 'nation' beyond the traditional, and somewhat dichotomous, schools of thought, hence neither judging the nation as a mere invention nor as a deterministic product of history. The book provides those interested in nationalism with new approaches to exploring national identity and its connection to statehood. By using concepts inspired by political science and sociology, namely habitus, survival unit, polity, hysteresis, and so forth, the different chapters of the volume revitalise the inquiry of the dimensions and features in which the nation and the identification they engender become tools of adaptation in relation to the transformative reality of our own contemporaneity. The authors thus contextualise the latter via the mid-range concept of national resilience at both meso- and macro-levels.
