Immigration Worldwide
Policies, Practices, and Trends
Edited by Uma A. Segal, Doreen Elliott, and
Nazneen S. Mayadas
Immigration worldwide is a phenomenon of utmost importance to
professionals who develop policies and programs for, or provide services to,
immigrants. It has far-reaching implications for a nation’s economy, public
policies, social and health services, and culture. The purpose of this volume,
therefore, is to explore current patterns and policies of immigration in key
countries and regions across the globe and analyze the implications for these
countries and their immigrant populations. Each of its chapters, written by
an international and interdisciplinary group of experts, explores how country
conditions, policies, and attitudes influence the process of immigration and
subsequently affect immigrants, migration, and the nation itself.
At once a sourcebook and an applied model of immigration studies,
Immigration Worldwide is a valuable reference for scholars and students seeking
a wide-ranging yet nuanced survey of the key issues salient to debates about
the programs and policies that best serve immigrant populations and their
host countries.
