Contrary to the stereotype which depicts them as economic
successes, Asian workers have a high incidence of underemployment
when compared to white workers. This book integrates immigration
and labor market trends into an analysis of the economic
assimilation of Asians in the U.S. It examines four forms of
underemployment (unemployment, part-time employment, working
poverty, and job mismatch) for Asian Indian, Filipino, and
Vietnamese men and women. This study shows that Asian
underemployment rates are consistently higher than for non-Hispanic
whites, with Asian Indians having the highest rate. Each Asian
group displayed varied effects of human capital, family and
household, industry, and assimilation variables on the different
underemployment categories. Important implications of the findings
show that ethnic group variation in underemployment appears
stronger than differences by gender.
First published in 1998. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
