Borders and Belonging
"Borders and Belonging is a pathbreaking, comprehensive, and compact analysis of responses to human migration. It is for a general audience that wants to view migration issues from many perspectives. Though relying primarily on the specifics in the United States, its audience should be worldwide. By answering questions that are rarely asked together, this book's approach is unique.

Telling Stories
First Published in 2002. We are living in a time of rapid and radical social change. Modes and categories inherited from the past no longer seem to fit the reality experienced by a new generation. New Accents is intended as a positive response to the initiative offered by such a situation. Each volume in the series will seek to encourage rather than resist the process of change; to stretch rather than reinforce the boundaries that currently define literature and its academic study. This book introduces a theoretical framework for studying narrative fiction. A narrative recounts a story, a series of events in a temporal sequence.
