Immigration, Assimilation, and the Cultural Construction of American National Identity

Om Immigration, Assimilation, and the Cultural Construction of American National Identity

This book explores the relationship between immigration, assimilation, and narratives of American identity. The often self-congratulatory, mythic story of the U.S. as a nation of immigrants can feel hollow in a climate of minutemen brigades and deadlock on a strategy for moving forward regarding the millions of undocumented immigrants currently in residence. In this book, an in-depth examination of elite writing about immigration and assimilation over the course of the 20th century illuminates and offers important insights into the dominant narratives of national identity: Anglo-Protestantism, the melting pot, and multiculturalism.
