Peter Kivisto is the Richard A. Swanson Professor of Social Thought at Augustana College, Rock Island, IL, USA, and Head of the Research Laboratory on Transnationalism and Migration Processes at St. Petersburg State University, Russia. The author or editor of over 30 books, his most recent is Solidarity, Justice, and Incorporation (with Giuseppe Sciortino, 2015).

This collection explores the beliefs of citizens and noncitizens about the impact that contemporary migration to the USA is having on American culture and on national solidarity. The six studies in this volume examine how citizens respond to immigrants-including right-wing populists, pragmatic multiculturalists, and immigrant advocates-and how immigrants in turn attempt to integrate into the receiving society. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Intercultural Studies.
