Ellen Percy Kraly, Professor of Geography and Environmental Studies at Colgate University, reviews Immigration and the Financial Crisis: The United States and Australia Compared. The book addresses the fallout from the 2008 financial crisis on immigrants and resident workers, as well as on migration policy, in the US and Australia. It analyzes policy debate, formation and implementation within both national contexts, and raises several themes in immigration research and policy to be examined and tested within their theoretical framework.
