Immigration and Ethnic Conflict reviews the experience of
post-industrial countries that have experienced large-scale
movements of population since the Second World War, creating
ethnically diverse multicultural societies in a context of rapid
economic, technological and social change. The book uses a critical
theoretical approach which emphasises the dynamic nature of the
structural changes which have taken place and the interdependence
of economic, political, social and psychological factors. The
results of extensive comparative studies of Britain, Canada and
Australia are reviewed, with special attention to questions of
immigrant adaptation, refugees, racism, unemployment, ethnic
nationalism and social conflict. Traditional views of immigrant
assimilation are rejected in favour of one which treats immigrants
and ethnic minorities as the catalysts of change in a global
polity, economy and society, simultaneously united and divided by
satellite communications, nuclear terror and the world population
explosion.
