Recenzje

'One of the book's greatest strengths is the clarity with which Ellermann presents a wide range of policy options in her case studies. She provides a nuanced analysis of immigration politics and policymaking that moves beyond the traditional approaches of immigration policies. Her focus on the policy dynamics is sustained by compelling arguments for each country examined.' Ariane Chebel D'Appollonia, Political Science Quarterly
