Recenzje

'Trailblazers, such as the many experts cited in the text and civil society groups … who have for years promoted the imperative of ensuring access to social and economic (including health) rights for irregular migrants (and whose work is cited in the book), now have a rigorous academic study to add heft to the essential work they do.' Jacqueline Bhabha, FXB Center for Health and Human Rights, Harvard University
