Bringing nuance, complexity, and clarity to a subject often seen in
black and white, "Writing Immigration" presents a unique interplay
of leading scholars and journalists working on the contentious
topic of immigration. In a series of powerful essays, the
contributors reflect on how they struggle to write about one of the
defining issues of our time - one that is at once local and global,
familiar and uncanny, concrete and abstract. Highlighting and
framing central questions surrounding immigration, their essays
explore topics including illegal immigration, state and federal
mechanisms for immigration regulation, enduring myths and fallacies
regarding immigration, immigration and the economy, immigration and
education, the adaptations of the second generation, and more.
Together, these writings give a clear sense of the ways in which
scholars and journalists enter, shape, and sometimes transform this
essential yet unfinished national conversation.
