DEBATING IMMIGRATION
|
Immigration has been a recurring topic of debate and conflict in the American experience. This seminar will focus on four major eras of immigration (colonial, mid-19th century, turn of the 20th century, and late 20th century). Student will enter the debates of each era, examining ways in which race and nationality, religion, work ethics and work skills, war and international politics affected attitudes about and public policies regarding immigration, and the very meaning of 'American.'
