520 |a ""Gang members, criminals, freeloaders, threats to our country!" "Hard-working, devoted to the family, essential for our country!" In the early decades of the 21st century, sharply divided visions have emerged of immigrants and their role in society, not just in the United States but also in the European Union (EU) and other parts of the world. While solutions to the immigration crisis have been explored by political scientists, economists, and other experts, there is a need for greater contributions from psychologists. The chapters in this book contain psychological reports of the immigration experience globally and highlight solutions provided by psychological science to illustrate how immigrants can add to the economic and cultural strength and dynamism of the host society. This book also critically explores the important themes that characterize the psychology of immigration literature with the goal of further developing the contributions of psychological science to address the challenges and inform solutions to contemporary immigration globally"--  |c Provided by publisher. 
520 |a "There were around 281 million international migrants throughout the world in 2020, nearly 4% of the global population. In the decades to come, thanks to ongoing conflict, violence, political instability and the effects of climate change, these numbers will only rise.This book adopts a broad perspective of psychological science, encompassing both causal and normative behavior, to explore topics related to immigration including gentrification, "crimmigration," and trust between immigrants and host-society authorities.To some, immigrants represent a threat to the established population's jobs, standard of living, communities, culture, language, and safety. Others view immigrants as offering economic benefits to society including new sources of labor and consumption, and new technical skills and knowledge--not to mention the economic and personal benefits immigrants and their families might gain as well.While most immigrants leave their home countries for job opportunities, millions of others have been driven away due to conflict, extreme violence, political instability, and climate change.Authors in this book provide psychological reports of the immigration experience in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South America, and address the challenges of integrating immigrants and refugees in host societies.While critically assessing the immigration crisis globally, this book offers practical solutions to problems of contemporary immigration derived from theoretical constructs such as the contact hypothesis and the common group identity model, while also highlighting key areas of ongoing and future research"--  |c Provided by publisher.
