  • More about A Land of Dreams: A Study of Jewish and Caribbean Migrant Communities in England

A Land of Dreams is an ethnographic study of two first-generation migrant communities in London and Birmingham, focusing on their migration and working lives.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 230 pages
Publication date: 15 February 2024
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd

A Land of Dreams, originally released in 1993, delves into two significant historical events in recent English history: the settlement of East European Jews in the East End of London and the expansion of an African-Caribbean community in Birmingham. This ethnographic study is based on the firsthand experiences of two first-generation migrant communities. It primarily focuses on the narratives of their migration journey and the initial challenges they faced in their new home, particularly in their working lives and daily struggles. By comparing and contrasting these two studies, the book sheds light on the vastly different social and economic conditions that these migrant groups encountered upon their arrival in England.
