Sorry, this item is currently not available.

Although migration by the very virtue of its transnational nature seems to invite comparisons, relatively few books provide these in explicit form. In this collection of essays, the authors deliberately juxtapose the experience of different locations and/or immigrant populations in order to systematically compare them.
