Oxford Handbook of American Immigration and Ethnicity

The Oxford Handbook of American Immigration and Ethnicity brings together thirty leading scholars to make sense of all the themes, methodologies, and trends that characterize the debate on American immigration. They examine a wide-range of topics, including pan-ethnicity, whiteness, intermarriage, bilingualism, religion, museum ethnic displays, naturalization, regional mobility, census categorization, immigration legislation and its reception, ethnicity-related crime and gang formation. By exploring the idea of assimilation in a multicultural society, this Handbook shows how deeply pan-ethnicity changed American identity over the time.
