About This Item
Sydney: Allen & Unwin / Housing Industry Association, 1998. Paperback small octavo, very good plus condition. 160 pp. Immigration and its consequences have always been topics of public debate in Australia and in recent times the debate has intensified. Strong views are held on the advantages and disadvantages of immigration, and on the desirable size and composition of the immigrant intake. The authors look at the characteristics and numbers of immigrants who have arrived in Australia in recent years, where they have settled and the impact on the workforce. They discuss the effect of immigration on Australia's population and outline the advantages and disadvantages of population growth through immigration. They include a thorough examination of research-based knowledge on economic, environmental and social impacts. Immigration and Australia is the most up-to-date source of information on immigration issues, and a comprehensive resource for students, researchers and policy-makers.
