Immigrant Geographies of North American Cities

Audrey Kobayashi is a 2011 Fellow of The Royal Society of Canada. Honoured at the 2012 Geographical Perspectives on Women (GPOW) Book Event with the Association of American Geographers (AAG). Bringing together an impressive group of expert contributors from Canada and the US, this groundbreaking collection examines issues of immigration, migration, and settlement from a unique geographical perspective. Featuring original research by both Canadian and American scholars, Immigrant Geographies of North American Cities fills a significant gap in the existing literature on immigration. This comparative approach gives readers a deep understanding of the complex social, spatial, economic, and political factors that affect immigration policies and immigrants' experiences in the evolving urban landscapes of North America.
