About this product

Product Information

Now in a revised and expanded third edition, this widely adopted text provides a global perspective on the nature of migration movements, why they take place, and their effects on industrialized countries and the developing world. Extensively rewritten chapters provide information on and comparative analyses of the world's main migration regions. The role of migration in the formation of ethnic minority groups is examined, as is the impact of growing ethnic diversity on economies, cultures, and political institutions. Included are a wealth of concrete examples, tables, and maps.

Reviews
"In this expanded second edition, Castles and Miller succeed in presenting both a panoramic view of the complexity and variety of international migration during the 20th century and a detailed discussion of the processes leading to minority formation ." --Hania Zlotnik, Chief, Mortality and Migration Section, Population Division, United Nations "The Age of Migration, Second Edition is the best introduction to the movement of people across national borders. It covers the major theories of migration, the most significant movements in each region of the world, and the linkages between immigration and integration." --Philip Martin, Dept. of Ag and Resource Economics, University of California, Davis, "In this expanded second edition, Castles and Miller succeed in presenting both a panoramic view of the complexity and variety of international migration during the 20th century and a detailed discussion of the processes leading to minority formation ." --Hania Zlotnik, Chief, Mortality and Migration Section, Population Division, United Nations " The Age of Migration, Second Edition is the best introduction to the movement of people across national borders.

Numerous exhibits which describe case-studies in more detail, maps which show migration flows, an appendix with selective suggestions for further reading and a very good index for the reader searching for quick references, all this contributes to the multiple usefulness of the book....The authors have done an admirable job and the thorough update of the first edition will help to secure for this book a prominent and lasting place in the burgeoning migration literature." --Ethnic and Racial Studies "This is an excellent book, written in a polemical style that invites reaction and response....This is a challenging and interesting book....It should run into many more editions." --Journal of International Migration and Integration, "...cover(s) almost every major theme of current migration studies....Few migration researchers would be able to write such a comprehensive overview and most will find information in the book which they had not known before....individual chapters can be read separately or used as teaching materials for specific courses.
