Immigration and Canadaprovides readers with a vital introduction to the field of international migration studies from a critical perspective. This original book offers up-to-date information on migration patterns and trends, with a particular focus on implications for Canada.
“This is the most comprehensive book I have read on international migration. The author argues that contemporary Canadian society cannot be de-coupled from history and the global system. The presentation of ideas and analysis in this book are borne out of sound pedagogy from an experienced scholar.”
— Charles Adeyanju, Sociology Department, Brandon University
“This volume will serve as a very useful book. The major strengths are its breadth and its Canadian focus. This book is a welcome addition to the literature on international migration.”
