What Is the Impact of Emigration?

What happens to a community when people leave? What factors contribute to patterns of emigration? Some counties, like the United States, depend on emigration from elsewhere to remain vital. This anthology interrogates the impact of emigration from conflicting perspectives. Students will be exposed to a variety of opposing viewpoints on the topic, which will encourage a broader understanding of the political and social issues surrounding emigration.
