Synopsis
This book explores the complex relationship between schools and the process of Americanization for immigrants in the United States. The author argues that while schools have traditionally been seen as a primary tool for promoting national unity and assimilation, their effectiveness in this role has been limited by a number of factors, including inadequate funding, lack of coordination between different agencies, and the challenges of reaching adult immigrants. The book also examines the role of private schools in the education of immigrants and the tension between the need for language instruction and the desire to preserve cultural heritage. Through a combination of historical analysis, case studies, and policy recommendations, the author provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and opportunities facing educators and policymakers in the field of immigrant education.
