European Immigration

Reviews

'Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and above.' Choice 'Encyclopaedic, up-to-the-minute and with an enlarged range of themes and geographical coverage, this unique reference text is a must-have for any serious student of contemporary migration. Particularly valuable are its new perspectives on European enlargement, the evolution of a European migration policy and the impact of the financial crisis, as well as its useful synthesis of distinct migration pathways.' Russell King, Sussex University, UK 'European migration is of bewildering complexity even for the experts. This sourcebook provides concise and well-structured overviews for each of the 28 Member States of the European Union. It interprets the numbers. It compares how European countries have been exposed to migration and how they have responded. And it analyses the different pathways of migration in Europe from irregular migrants and asylum seekers to the sought-after highly skilled and the free moving EU citizens. This comprehensively updated second edition will be just as useful for students who freshly enter the field of migration studies as for specialists who need to broaden their knowledge.' Rainer Baubock, European University Institute, Italy Praise for the first edition: 'This book provides an up-to-date and often lively account of immigration in all 25 countries of the European Union. There are still enormous difficulties of comparison arising from the mutual unintelligibility of competing definitions and incommensurate statistics. However, the editors and authors have dealt with these problems confidently and imaginatively. The balance between established and emerging scholars is also impressive. The result is that in just about every country study - including those I know well - I discovered new insights and information.' Robin Cohen, University of Oxford, UK 'Written by professors and researchers, the chapters present an excellent overview of past and current immigration trends and lists sources for further reading...This resource demonstrates that immigrant populations and policies are incredibly diverse in the EU, and it makes an important contribution to the study of issues involved...Recommended.' Choice '...a useful sourcebook for those who want a quick account of what is going on in each country and an assessment along the themes chosen by the editors.' THE CYPRUS REVIEW 'This is a very timely and useful book...The authors of the country chapters include some of the leading migration reearchers in Europe and all are national experts on migration in their respective countries. They and the editors are to be commended for bringing this book to publication.' Journal of Population Research 'The book is [...] a precious source of information for the researcher interested in immigration issues and diversity management.' Etudes Internationales
