I need help with my paper on Immigration...please help!?

Question

I have to write a paper on three ways Immigration has changed in the last 50 years. The hints were:

-It challenges ethnocentric American or European perspectives on immigration

-It disputes the classical assimilation model of a linear progression of immigrant cultures toward a dominant American national character.

-It questions human capital theory as an explanation of ethnic group achievement

-It reveals conflicting ethnic and racial attitutudes toward immingration restriction.

-It examines the revival of oral history, immigrant autobiographiesm and other sujective documents.

If you can help please do so!!

Answer 1

It sounds like your teacher has told you exactly the paper that she wants you to write...and she's very obviously promoting a political agenda.  Shame on her.  She's telling you how to think.
