The Chinese Exclusion Act: What It Can Teach Us about America
B. Railton
This book explores two critical strands in American Studies: policy conversations on legal and illegal immigration and social and educational conversations on diversity and multiculturalism. As author Benjamin Railton shows, a fresh look at the Chinese Exclusion Act overturns much of the received wisdom on immigration and American identity.
74 pages, 2 Illustrations, black and white; VIII, 74 p. 2 illus.
