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
"The extraordinary success ofThe Age of Migrationlies in its presentation of the first comprehensive analysis of international migration as a global process. Successive editions have provided overall accounts of migration patterns across time and space, and have examined ways that migration is shaped by, and in turn affects, the structure of the international system. This updated third edition incorporates important recent developments in these processes. It also includes a completely new chapter addressing recently heightened concerns about the impact of migration on issues of security and sovereignty. It thus becomes the new essential text for the study of international migration."--Jeffrey G. Reitz, Program in Ethnic, Immigration, and Pluralism Studies and Department of Sociology, University of Toronto, Canada "This thoroughly revised third edition provides a comprehensive and authoritative review of the main trends in international migration across much of the globe and a state-of-the-art commentary on the burgeoning migration literature. The authors keep pace with rapidly changing circumstances that shorten the half-lives of generalizations about migration and quickly date textbooks. The most distinctive feature of the third edition is a new chapter on the state and immigration control. Focusing on how migration pressures have changed in the last decade, the authors produce a judicious summary of the mixed record of state policies in stimulating and curtailing different types of migration. Their exposition is a model of clarity and avoids asserting either the death of sovereignty or the popular but contradictory claims that the policies of the receiving states are uniformly restrictive, anti-immigrant, and ineffective."--Gary Freeman, Department of Government, University of Texas at Austin "Without doubt, this book remains the most comprehensive and accessible introduction to the multiple aspects of population movements around the globe, from migration trends and policies to issues of immigrant incorporation and anti-immigrant politics. It weaves together theoretical perspectives with rich, up-to-date, empirical detail; identifies problems associated with migration; advances solutions; and provides extensive references for further study. Undergraduate and graduate students, the interested public, and scholars will profit from reading this book."--Helga Leitner, University of Minnesota, "The extraordinary success ofThe Age of Migrationlies in its presentation of the first comprehensive analysis of international migration as a global process.
