<br/><br/>Immigration in Singapore : an overview -- Angst, anxieties, and anger in a global city -- The politics of immigration -- Social integration of immigrants into multiracial Singapore -- Reconstructing Singapore as a cosmpolitan landscape -- "Family, worker or outsider" -- Whither integration? -- Permanent residentes serving national service. 
<br/><br/> This study traces the socio-political effects of immigration on Singapore and its population, a topic that has been the subject of intense debate in the nation as its population grows increasingly diverse. Beyond the logic of economic imperatives, the book aims to explore the larger consequences of taking in large number of immigrants, and its analysis should appeal to scholars of migration, social change, and public policy.
