Academics as well as politicians have been relating to the question of how \u003cem\u003e states\u003c\/em\u003e should cope with immigrants; but 96% of immigrants end up in\u003cbr\u003ecities, and in Europe and the USA, two thirds of the immigrants settle in seven or eight cities. Indeed, most of us encounter with immigrants as city-zens, in our everyday life, rather than as citizens of states. So how should \u003cem\u003e cities\u003c\/em\u003e integrate immigrants? Should cities be allowed to design their\u003cbr\u003eautonomous integration policies? Could they issue visas and permits to immigrants? Should immigrants be granted voting rights in local elections before naturalization? And how do cities think about these issues? What can we learn from cities which are thought to be successful in integrating and\u003cbr\u003eassimilating immigrants? Is there a model of integration within the city which is best? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book discusses these questions both empirically and normatively. The book is based on hundreds of in depth discussions of these matters with city dwellers in San Francisco, New York, London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Thessaloniki and Jerusalem. It shifts the discourse on immigration from 'thinking like\u003cbr\u003ea state' to 'thinking like a city' .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Avner De-Shalit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/06\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.30w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198833215\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvner de-Shalit, \u003cem\u003eMax Kampelman Professor of Democracy and Human Rights, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAvner de-Shalit is the Max Kampleman Professor of Democracy and Human Rights at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
