But in countries where identity is defined more in ethnic terms, such as Germany, the  presence of immigrants has only recently begun to be acknowledged. Taking these  two countries as case studies, Immigration  Dialectic explores the impact of immigration on national identity as  imagined through media-based discourse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarald Bauder argues that while both countries  rely on negative depictions of immigrants to construct a positive image of the  self, the ways in which Canada  and Germany  construct national identity in relation to representations of immigrants are  significantly different. Bauder introduces a sophisticated framework of Hegelian  dialectics for the growing interdisciplinary literature regarding media  perspectives on immigration and national identity. Providing close analysis of  themes such as belonging, economic impacts, and national security, Immigration Dialectic will appeal to  anyone interested in contemporary discussions on immigration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47919357886622,"sku":"ING-9781442610767","price":84.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781442610767.jpg?v=1782810891","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781442610767","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
