God Needs No Passport: Immigrants and the Changing American

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Levitt, Peggy, PUBLISHER: New Press, A major new examination of the American immigrant experience, revealing how recent immigrants are transforming religion in America and around the globe. ""People who know how to live in more than one cultural world have mastered the art of living in this global age, which is good for this country and for their homelands.""--from "God Needs No Passport" Thousands of Hindus fill the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York City to worship with their guru from Gujarat, India. The Boston Garden plays host to a packed house of Brazilian Protestants, with ministers beamed in via satellite. Similar scenes are played out across middle America, where millions of new immigrants from Asia, Africa, and Latin America have settled over the past decade. While many Americans expect that immigrants will trade in one membership card for another, sociologist Peggy Levitt's pathbreaking new account argues instead that many keep one foot in their countries of origin by participating in religious institutions--made possible by communications technology and the ease of international travel--that are a powerful but little-known force in today's world. Immigrants are changing the face of religious diversity in the United States, Levitt argues, helping to make American religion just as global as U.S. corporations. In a book with stunning implications for today's immigration debates--where commentators routinely refer to a "clash of civilizations"--Levitt shows that the new realities of religion and migration are subtly challenging the very definition of what it means to be an American. "God Needs No Passport" reveals that American values are no longer just made in the U.S.A. but around the globe.

Polish Immigrants in the USA

Polish Immigrants in the USA: The 'land of immigrants' or the 'melting pot' - as the United States of America are often called - where many different cultures meet and are combined with each other, is also the home for several million immigrants from East European countries, especially from Poland. Polish immigrants came to the USA in two larger immigration waves to pursue the same dreams all other immigrants had when coming to the New World, mainly to live a better life. This paper deals with Polish immigrants in the United States, their history, their original community around Chicago, and also with their identity they have kept in the foreign country until today. Firstly, I will give an overview on the American immigration issue, describing the development of immigration from the discovery of America until the beginning of the 20th century. This is followed by a short passage on the most famous entry point to the United States - Ellis Island. I will not go into further detail on immigration during and between the World Wars because this topic will be treated on the background of Polish immigration later on. However, a short overview on how the United States deals with immigration - and especially illegal immigration - in current times will be added. The two major immigration waves, which were already mentioned above, will be the topic of chapter three, in which the reasons for immigration, meaning the political and the economical context in Poland, will be described. The subsequent chapter deals with the city of Chicago, which is the place many Polish immigrants settled at and enlarged their families. In this context, I will portray the living and working conditions for Polish Immigrants in the 19th and 20th century, describe the Polish nationality and identity in the United States, and take a look at the influence political happenings in their home country had on Polish immigrants and their successors in the United States.
