Here is the first full, critical investigation of the extent to which West Indians are being accepted in England, and in particular in London where so many of them live. It analyzes the emigrants' West Indian backgrounds, their London experience, and the difficulties they face, and shows that color prejudice is far more prevalent in Britain than is generally acknowledged. The author follows developments from the disturbances of autumn 1957 until spring 1960, demonstrates the urgency of problems of mutual adjustment between the new minority group and the host society, and makes proposals for their solution.[Harvard University Press].

Between 1880 and 1939, a quarter of a million European Jews settled in England. Tananbaum explores the differing ways in which the existing Anglo-Jewish communities, local government and education and welfare organizations sought to socialize these new arrivals, focusing on the experiences of working-class women and children.

The first history of London to show how immigrants have built, shaped and made a great success of the capital city London is now a global financial and multicultural hub in which over three hundred languages are spoken. But the history of London has always been a history of immigration. Panikos Panayi explores the rich and vibrant story of London– from its founding two millennia ago by Roman invaders, to Jewish and German immigrants in the Victorian period, to the Windrush generation invited from Caribbean countries in the twentieth century. Panayi shows how migration has been fundamental to London’s economic, social, political and cultural development.“br/> Migrant City sheds light on the various ways in which newcomers have shaped London life, acting as cheap labour, contributing to the success of its financial sector, its curry houses, and its football clubs. London’s economy has long been driven by migrants, from earlier continental financiers and more recent European Union citizens. Without immigration, fueled by globalization, Panayi argues, London would not have become the world city it is today.
