Celebrates the contribution of diasporas and immigrants in the rise of United States
By bringing together eminent scholars, this book highlights the current scholarship in the field of migration, which tries to present a counter-narrative to the popular anti-immigrant rhetoric and the populist domestic politics of the US. There has been a growing global trend of alternative histories and anthropologies that brings forth the voices from the margins and the developing world. This volume, in that sense, without undermining the US's eminence, tries to deprovincialise (Burke, 2020) or deparochialise it from within or through the histories of the immigrants. In other words, it attempts to re-read the US's emergence as an important power with immigration as the site of analysis. It provides a comprehensive and in-depth theoretical and empirical discussion that will appeal to scholars and practitioners alike.
