At the turn of the millennium; the United States has the largest number of immigrants in its history. As a consequence; immigration has emerged once again as a subject of scholarly inquiry and policy debate. This volume brings together the dominant conceptual and theoretical work on the "New Immigration" from such disparate disciplines as anthropology; demography; psychology; and sociology. Immigration today is a global and transnational phenomenon that affects every region of the world with unprecedented force. Although this volume is devoted to scholarly work on the new immigration in the U.S. setting; any of the broader conceptual issues covered here also apply to other post-industrial countries such as France; Germany; and Japan.
