Along with increasing life expectancy comes the knowledge that many Americans will one day enter nursing homes. Who are the people who will care for us or for our relatives? Nancy Foner provides a major study of institutional care that focuses on nursing aides, who are the backbone of American nursing homes. She examines the strains and paradoxes facing nursing aides-asked, on the one hand, to provide compassionate care and, on the other, to cope with the pressures of the workplace and the institution.Aides are expected to look after patients, who are predominantly older women, with kindness and consideration, but nursing home regulations and bureaucratic forces often hinder even the best efforts to offer consistently supportive care. Positioned at the bottom of the nursing hierarchy, aides must cope with the needs of frail, dependent residents, pressures from patients' relatives and from their own families, and demands of supervisors and coworkers.Foner's detailed description and analysis of caregiving dilemmas, based on intensive field research in a New York facility, brings the perspective of the nursing aides to the fore. This is a timely contribution to the study of work, bureaucracy, and the future of an aging American population.

"Soaring immigration to the United States in the transitional years of the new century has awakened old fears and inspired new anxieties about the future cultural shape of this country. Yet we know little about the experience of recent immigrant communities. In this volume, nine anthropologists reflect on the history of studies of migration, evaluate anthropology's contribution to the field, and develop a research program for the future. Placing contemporary immigration in the context of globalization and transnational social fields, their essays demonstrate the importance of gender and particular urban circumstances to understanding immigrants' life worlds. Addressing issues of health care, education, and minority values and practices among Mexicans, Haitians, Somalis, Afghans, and other newcomers to the United States, the authors raise serious questions about the meaning and political uses of ideas about cultural difference." -- Back cover.
