The book explores the complexities of assimilation as a process for integrating diverse ethnic, racial, and religious groups into new societies, particularly in the context of global migration. It examines how assimilation has historically been applied not only to immigrants but also to indigenous peoples and refugees. The author addresses the scholarly challenges to the concept, highlighting its entanglement with various political agendas over the past century. This critical analysis sheds light on the evolving nature of immigrant incorporation and its implications for contemporary society.
