Strangers in New Homelands is a collection of papers emanating from Annual International Conferences on the Social Reconstruction of the concept of “home” among immigrants in the diaspora. For many immigrants in the diaspora, the concept of “home”, around which this conference has revolved, evokes confusion, fear, hopes, and aspirations. The presentations in this book therefore seek to throw light on what this concept means for many people who have uprooted themselves from their familiar environments and settled or seek to make new homes out of strange and unfamiliar environments. The contributors in this publication were drawn from the field of researchers on immigrant and refugee movements and settlements, education, community development and front-line immigrant and refugee settlement workers. They draw on experiences from their research, field practice vignettes, personal experiences and case work examples to highlight and explore the critical issues involved in the field of forced and voluntary migration and resettlement around the world, and the settlement of migrants and refugees in new societies. Cumulatively, the contributors examine the challenges of settlement, integration and adaptation that new comers face in host societies. The critical approaches and strong balance of research with applications show the implications of the issues for the profession of social work and allied fields. The scholarship presented here also highlights the implications of the issues discussed for further research and social policy development. Anyone interested in learning about the challenges and intricacies of the migration process around the world must read this book. It is highly recommended for politicians, policy makers, social work professionals, educators and organizations dealing with immigrants and refugees.

Josef Keller (1820-1902) was born at Talheim, a village now in Baden-Würettemberg, Germany, the son of Valentin and Maria Fluck Keller. He married Johanna Schurhammer in 1843, probably in the parish church at Blumenfeld. They had fourteen children, 1844-1865. Josef's half brother immigrated to the United States in 1854, and the members of the Josef Keller family followed, 1867-1881. Josef immigrated in 1876, after his wife's death. The family settled first in the area of New Berlin, Sangamon County, Illinois. Some later moved to Cincinnati, Ohio; South Bend, Indiana; and elsewhere. Josef Keller died at New Berlin at the home of his daughter, Kreszentia. Descendants lived in Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, and elsewhere.

This overview of various philosophies and philosophers relevant to Education covers democracy, freedom, political despotism, human rights, and the politics of culture and of gender. Within each of these the text identifies obstacles to achieving freedom and political power. In the second edition a new concluding chapter proposes a solution for the authoritarian tendencies of government-operated schools and addresses the problem that for any school outside groups want to influence the content of instruction.
