In the US, these indigenous racial categories are usually defined in terms of white and black. Kretsedemas explores how this kind of racialization puts migrants in a quandary, leading them to be simultaneously raced and situated outside of race. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough the book focuses on the situation of migrants in the US, it builds on theories of migrants and race that extend beyond the US, and makes a point of criticizing nation-centered explanations of race and racism. These arguments point toward the emergence of a new field visibility that has transformed the racial meaning of nativity, migration and migrant ethnicity. It also situates these changing views of migrants in a broader historical perspective than prior theory, explaining how they have been shaped by a changing relationship between race and territory that has been unfolding for several hundred years, and which crystallizes in the late colonial era. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781135123451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220","brand":"Philip Kretsedemas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52418745630901,"sku":"9781135123451","price":106.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_790033e4-3b44-449b-b96f-1985314314ad.jpg?v=1775570399","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/migrants-and-race-in-the-us-territorial-racism-and-the-alienoutside-9781135123451","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
