She sketches out three distinct channels which lead to unequal outcomes for different migrating and non-migrating groups: the global division of labor; the production of legal and administrative categories; and the reconfiguration of symbolic ethnoracial groups. Respectively, these channels categorize migrants as \"type of workers,\" \"type of citizens,\" and \"type of humans.\" Examining this intersection across the U.S. and Europe, she shows how studying international migration together with inequality can challenge nationally established paradigms of social justice. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This timely book will be essential reading for all students and researchers interested in the sociology and politics of migration, ethnic and racial studies, and social inequality and stratification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mirna Safi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509522115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509522118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Mirna Safi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935422644479,"sku":"9781509522118","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d2113f0c-a9e0-4c2d-bd9a-1f8d375d0d76.jpg?v=1681419709","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/migration-and-inequality-mirna-safi-9781509522118","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
