{"product_id":"origins-and-destinations-the-making-of-the-second-generation-9780871549129","title":"Origins and Destinations: The Making of the Second Generation","description":"The children of immigrants continue a journey begun by their parents. Born or raised in the United States, this second generation now stands over 20 million strong. In this insightful new book, immigration scholars Renee Luthra, Thomas Soehl, and Roger Waldinger provide a fresh understanding the making of the second generation, bringing both their origins and destinations into view. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Using surveys of second generation immigrant adults in New York and Los Angeles, \u003ci\u003eOrigins and Destinations\u003c\/i\u003e explains why second generation experiences differ across national origin groups and why immigrant offspring with the same national background often follow different trajectories. Inter-group disparities stem from contexts of both emigration and immigration. Origin countries differ in value orientations: immigrant parents transmit lessons learned in varying \u003ci\u003econtexts of emigration\u003c\/i\u003e to children raised in the U.S. A system of migration control sifts immigrants by legal status, generating a \u003ci\u003econtext of immigration\u003c\/i\u003e that favors some groups over others. Both contexts matter: schooling is higher among immigrant children from more secular societies (South Korea) than among those from more religious countries (the Philippines). When immigrant groups enter the U.S. migration system through a welcoming door, as opposed to one that makes authorized status difficult to achieve, education propels immigrant children to better jobs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Diversity is also evident among immigrant offspring whose parents stem from the same place. Immigrant children grow up with homeland connections, which can both hurt and harm: immigrant offspring get less schooling when a parent lives abroad, but more schooling if parents in the U.S. send money to relatives living abroad. Though all immigrants enter the U.S. as non-citizens, some instantly enjoy legal status, while others spend years in the shadows. Children born abroad, but raised in the U.S. are all everyday Americans, but only some have become \u003ci\u003ede jure\u003c\/i\u003e Americans, a difference yielding across-the-board positive effects, even among those who started out in the same country. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Disentangling the sources of diversity among today's population of immigrant offspring, \u003ci\u003eOrigins and Destinations\u003c\/i\u003e provides a compelling new framework for understanding the second generation that is transforming America. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11946500\"\u003eRenee Luthra\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-12047766\"\u003eRoger Waldinger\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11946501\"\u003eThomas Soehl\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Russell Sage Foundation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780871549129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0871549123\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SOC\"\u003eSocial Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SOC026000\"\u003eSociology | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SOC\"\u003eSocial Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SOC007000\"\u003eEmigration \u0026amp; Immigration\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SOC\"\u003eSocial Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SOC024000\"\u003eResearch\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRenee Luthra\u003c\/b\u003e is senior lecturer in Sociology at the University of Essex. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Soehl\u003c\/b\u003e is assistant professor of Sociology at McGill University and the Canada Research Chair in International Migration. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoger Waldinger\u003c\/b\u003e is Distinguished Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Russell Sage Foundation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44702897799405,"sku":"9780871549129","price":52.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_6174ccae-0616-4444-b498-24e01aad70e8.jpg?v=1703894118","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/origins-and-destinations-the-making-of-the-second-generation-9780871549129","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
