Editor Walker (history, Queen's U., Canada) has collected essays on the history of immigration and racism in Canada, with contributors discussing such related topics as immigrant workers and radicalism, eugenics, immigration policy and internment during World War II. Written for students and scholars of Canadian history as well as general audiences, this book is arranged both chronologically and thematically, with readings grouped into categories that discuss natives and newcomers in early Canada, space and racialized communities, non-citizens and the state, "gate-keeping" enemies of the state and new rights and racism in the post-war era. Increased urbanization and diversity in the 21st century is also discussed within the context of Canada's "culture of heterogeneity." Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
