This work delves into the sociological implications of immigration, framing it as a critical global phenomenon that impacts various nations and societies. The author aims to elucidate the complex dynamics of immigration, examining its causes, effects, and the narratives surrounding both immigrants and host nations. At the start of the book, Fairchild provides an introduction to the concept of immigration, distinguishing it from other population movements such as invasion and colonization. He emphasizes the importance of understanding immigration as a personal and societal response to various forces, including economic, political, social, and religious factors. The opening portion sets the stage for exploring the intricacies of human migration, highlighting the motivations that compel individuals and groups to leave their homelands in search of better opportunities, and suggests that immigration is a process that not only affects the immigrant but also shapes the receiving country’s identity.
