{"product_id":"challenging-ethnic-citizenship-daniel-levy-9781571812926","title":"Challenging Ethnic Citizenship: German and Israeli Perspectives on Immigration","description":"\u003cp\u003e In contrast to most other countries, both Germany and Israel have descent-based concepts of nationhood and have granted members of their nation (ethnic Germans and Jews) who wish to immigrate automatic access to their respective citizenship privileges. Therefore these two countries lend themselves well to comparative analysis of the integration process of immigrant groups, who are formally part of the collective \"self\" but increasingly transformed into \"others.\" The book examines the integration of these 'privileged' immigrants in relation to the experiences of other minority groups (e.g. labor migrants, Palestinians).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e This volume offers rich empirical and theoretical material involving historical developments, demographic changes, sociological problems, anthropological insights, and political implications. Focusing on the three dimensions of citizenship: sovereignty and control, the allocation of social and political rights, and questions of national self-understanding, the essays bring to light the elements that are distinctive for either society but also point to similarities that owe as much to nation-specific characteristics as to evolving patterns of global migration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Levy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 157181292X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781571812926\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2002 pg. 668","brand":"Daniel Levy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906826359039,"sku":"9781571812926","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aaf7a2b2-209d-4677-b6b4-e79b3982dc1b.jpg?v=1748771516","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/challenging-ethnic-citizenship-daniel-levy-9781571812926","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
