- Summary:
- Higher-status immigrant communities in the Global South with ties to more developed countries might form identities and political strategies that reinforce an association with their heritage country rather than seek to completely integrate into their host country. Identities Matter: The Politics of Immigration and Incorporation investigates the politically and socially beneficial reasons for this. The case studies illustrating these phenomena are Japanese Brazilians and Jewish Brazilians.
