"From riots in France to protests in the United States, immigration remains a complicated worldwide issue. Immigration and Migration offers insight into a controversial topic by discussing the underlying motivations that prompt people to leave their countries, such as to escape poverty or war or to seek political asylum.The book also explores the financial, cultural, and social contributions immigrants/migrants make to their adopted countries, as well as the difficulties they face, including problems with assimilation, racial biases, and illegal immigration."--BOOK JACKET.
