SOCI 294-01  Immigration, Ethnicity, and Citizenship in the US and Europe
MWF 10:50 am-11:50 am CARN 105 Daniel Williams
While immigration has been a defining feature of American society for over a century, it has increasingly become one in many European countries as well. In both the U.S. and Europe, similar questions have been raised by immigration and the presence of immigrants--about national identity, citizenship, integration and assimilation, and rights, among others. Many of these terms themselves are contested, evincing the complexity of the topic of immigration and immigrants' lives. Who are contemporary immigrants in the US and Europe? How are they incorporated into European and American societies? In what ways are immigrants assimilating, and what kinds of ties do they maintain to their countries of origin? How do state actors and policies respond to and shape immigrants and immigration? How is immigration framed and debated by governments and state actors in both Europe and the U.S.? These are some of the questions that we will explore in this course, from the both the perspective of immigrants as well as host societies. Our perspective in this course is decidedly comparative—between different countries and different immigrant groups. As such, one of the intellectual goals of course work is to uncover the similarities and differences between countries and different groups of immigrants. We will also consider both actual migrants as well as their children (the “second generation”).
