Migrations And Cultures: A World View
De (autor) Thomas Sowellen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 Feb 1997
Most
commentators
look
at
the
issue
of
immigration
from
the
viewpoint
of
immediate
politics.
In
doing
so,
they
focus
on
only
a
piece
of
the
issue
and
lose
touch
with
the
larger
picture.
Now
Thomas
Sowell
offers
a
sweeping
historical
and
global
look
at
a
large
number
of
migrations
over
a
long
period
of
time.Migrations
and
Cultures:
shows
the
persistence
of
cultural
traits,
in
particular
racial
and
ethnic
groups,
and
the
role
these
groups'
relocations
play
in
redistributing
skills,
knowledge,
and
other
forms
of
“human
capital.”
answers
the
question:
What
are
the
effects
of
disseminating
the
patterns
of
the
particular
set
of
skills,
attitudes,
and
lifestyles
each
ethnic
group
has
carried
forth—both
for
the
immigrants
and
for
the
host
countries,
in
social
as
well
as
economic
terms?
