Description:

An exploration of the large-scale immigration reshaping the political, social, and cultural fabric of Western Europe and North America. Case studies of several countries (e.g., France, Germany, the United States, and Mexico) are used to examine the historical foundations of citizenship, focusing on legal and cultural dimensions, such as race and national identity, border control, and the limits of globalization. Students also examine the extent to which contemporary immigration patterns are distinct from previous immigrant waves.
