{"product_id":"selecting-by-origin-christian-joppke-9780674015593","title":"Selecting by Origin: Ethnic Migration in the Liberal State","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn a world of mutually exclusive nation-states, international migration constitutes a fundamental anomaly. No wonder that such states have been inclined to select migrants according to their origins. The result is ethnic migration. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut Christian Joppke shows that after World War II there has been a trend away from ethnic selectivity and toward non-discriminatory immigration policies across Western states. Indeed, he depicts the modern state in the crossfire of particularistic and universalistic principles and commitments, with universalism gradually winning the upper hand. Thus, the policies that regulate the boundaries of states can no longer invoke the particularisms that constitute these boundaries and the collectivities residing within them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJoppke presents detailed case studies of the United States, Australia, Western Europe, and Israel. His book will be of interest to a broad audience of sociologists, political scientists, historians, legal scholars, and area specialists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christian Joppke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0674015592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674015593\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.56h x 6.54w x 1.07d","brand":"Christian Joppke","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579600060671,"sku":"9780674015593","price":91.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5c531da8-447d-4087-ba19-ba57682862cf.jpg?v=1763875320","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/selecting-by-origin-christian-joppke-9780674015593","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
