Summary: | Immigration is dramatically changing major cities throughout the world. Nowhere is this more so than in New York City and Amsterdam, which, after decades of large-scale immigration, now have populations that are more than a third foreign-born.

New York and Amsterdam brings together a distinguished and interdisciplinary group of American and Dutch scholars to examine. |
