Containing Diversity

“In addition to both its new arguments and impressive synthesis of existing literature that will appeal to both new and senior scholars, it is easy to envision how this volume will be an excellent teaching resource for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses. Containing Diversity would work well as a core text addressing the politics or sociology of migration in Canada whose chapters each address a core theme, or as an assigned book for students to review and contend with its framework.” -- John Carlaw, Toronto Metropolitan University * Journal of Australian, Canadian, and Aotearoa New Zealand Studies *
“One of the most exciting contributions to the immigration literature in the last few years, Containing Diversity is a valuable resource not only for migration scholars, but also for policy analysts, as well as immigrants themselves who wish to learn about Canadian immigration policies.” -- Deniz Cevik * École nationale d’administration publique, International Journal *
“Containing Diversity makes what is often invisible, visible, shedding new and substantial light on the struggles of im/migrant groups who are at once essential to national economies, yet multiply marginalized on intersecting grounds of oppression.” -- Alexandra Dobrowolsky, Saint Mary’s University * Canadian Ethnic Studies *
“With Containing Diversity, Abu-Laban, Tungohan, and Gabriel not only offer a convincing and disconcerting appraisal of the politics that shape 21st century immigration policy in Canada, but also a carefully articulated ethical path forward – one that supports a politics of social and global justice” -- J. Adam Perry, St. Francis Xavier University * Canadian Ethnic Studies *
