Diversity and the Transition to Adulthood in America

Beschreibung

"Phoebe Ho, Hyunjoon Park, and Grace Kao provide one of the best succinct descriptions I have ever read of historical trends in immigration policy and the ways that populations diversify over time."--Robert Crosnoe, Associate Dean of Liberal Arts and Rapoport Centennial Professor of Sociology, University of Texas at Austin "Ho, Park, and Kao provide a compelling story of the different paths to adulthood in America today. Written with engaging prose, the book documents how the decline in universal marriage and childbearing, along with increasing income inequality, has yielded not only greater diversity in living arrangements among young adults, but also how this diversity varies by race, educational attainment, and immigrant generation. This will be a valuable course book for students of immigration and inequality."--John Iceland, series editor, Sociology in the Twenty-First Century
