Zusammenfassung: | "Conversations about migration were, are, and will be controversial. The topic is highly politicized, and people have strong opinions based on idiosyncratic personal experiences, misinformed assumptions, and tendentious views spread by politicians and pundits. The average person does not have the facts at hand to conceptualize the topic from a more general, objective, yet empathetic perspective. Immigration Myths and Realities summarizes the latest research findings on immigrants and immigration in the United States and elsewhere for anyone interested in what the latest research has to tell. It reviews the existing literature across various disciplines and sources, and for American readers focused on the contentious US / Mexico border, it offers original analyses based on surveys conducted in El Paso, TX. Each of the book's chapters addresses and provides the relevant context and data to debunk a popularly held myth about immigrants, from the flawed assumption that the U.S.-Mexico border is a dangerous, lawless place to the idea that immigrants are disproportionately dependent on welfare and government programs"-- |
