Produktbeschreibung

"Hands down, Undocumented Politics is indispensable reading for anyone who cares about the lives of immigrants today and the future of their communities."-- Cecilia Menjívar, Foundation Distinguished Professor and Co-director of the Center for Migration Research, Department of Sociology, University of Kansas "Abigail Andrew's sensitively observed, beautifully written account of everyday politics shows how and for whom the sites of political activism are changing and how these shifts can give voice and power to previously excluded groups."-- Peggy Levitt, author of Artifacts and Allegiances " Andrews offers us nothing less than a new model of transnational politics. Highly original and beautifully written, this book will have a lasting impact on the way we think about the politics of migration."--Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo, author of Paradise Transplanted "Substantially advances research in this field. Andrews clearly listens to her informants, carefully traces processes within and across the cases of Retorno and Partida, is agile in her use of theory, and delights in finding and explaining unexpected outcomes. I really enjoyed reading this book." --Robert Courtney Smith, Professor, Marxe School of Public and International Affairs, Baruch College, and Sociology Department, Graduate Center, CUNY
