This insightful sociology book and historical study examines the post-World War II growth of two major post-industrial immigrant nations—Australia and Israel—where nearly one in four Australians and over one in three Israelis were born abroad.

Immigration and Nation Building takes a comparative approach, exploring immigration patterns, legal frameworks, labour markets, civil society, public opinion, and second-generation integration. Through this lens, it offers a thought-provoking analysis of both the unique and shared aspects of nation-building in these two immigrant societies.

By contrasting their experiences, this ground breaking work provides valuable insights into the impact of immigration, making it essential reading for policy analysts, researchers in government and academia, and students of sociology, politics, economics, and history.
