This book examines the political experience of the Hmong Americans immigrants, who first came to the United States as refugees of Vietnam War. In growing numbers, candidates of Hmong American ethnicity have competed successfully in elections to win seats in local and state legislative bodies in California, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. At the same time, average levels of Hmong American educational attainment still lag far behind levels in the U.S. po…
The Role of Immigration in the Designing of the American Nation
In this comprehensive history of US immigration policy, Aristide Zolberg demonstrates how American political leaders have long devised immigration laws for the purpose of nation-building. Conceiving of inmigration as a social process by which they could fashion the future composition of the populace, policy elites battled over competing notions of what kind of immigration was desirable for economic growth and the attainment of political goals.

This wave of immigration began in the immediate aftermath of the civil rights era and it led to the formation of a new set of ethnic advocacy groups in American politics
Structure of NF-κB p50 homodimer bound to a κB site
The 2.3-A crystal structure of the transcription factor NK-kappa B p50 homodimer bound to a palindromic kappa B site reveals that the Rel homology region folds into two distinct domains, similar to those in the immunoglobulin superfamily. The p50 dimer envelopes an undistorted B-DNA helix, making specific contacts along the 10-base-pair kappa B recognition site mainly through loops connecting secondary structure elements in both domains. The carb…
