333 - Section on International Migration Paper Session. Political Integration of Immigrants and Their Adult U.S. Citizen Children: Mechanisms of Inclusion and Exclusion

Mon, August 22, 8:30 to 10:10am, TBA

Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min

Description

An important new frontier for sociological study is to analyze the laws, systems, and processes by which naturalized immigrants and their U.S.-born adult children are included and excluded from political life. This session focuses on the everyday mechanisms of inclusion, exclusion, attraction and repulsion from politics and other forms of civic engagement. Papers are invited that analyze how American political systems—the Voting Rights Act, parties, voting systems, candidate selection processes, and political mobilization—mobilize and demobilize U.S. immigrants and their adult children at the local or higher level.
