Immigration and the Political Economy of Home: West Indian Brooklyn and American Indian Minneapolis, 1945-1992 (American Crossroads)

"In this unusual juxtaposition of Indians in Minneapolis and Caribbean immigrants in Brooklyn, Buff has given us a unique and powerful lens on the nation-form and its discontents. This is a highly inventive, insightful study--as keen in its analysis of U.S. politics and policy as it is alive to the political force of various 'minority' cultural forms."--Matthew Frye Jacobson, Yale University, author ofBarbarian Virtues: The United States Encounters Foreign Peoples at Home and Abroad, 1876-1917Rachel Buff is the author of 'Immigration and the Political Economy of Home: West Indian Brooklyn and American Indian Minneapolis, 1945-1992 (American Crossroads)', published 2001 under ISBN 9780520211636 and ISBN 0520211634.
