Klappentext zu „Importing Foreign Workers “
This study examines the interaction between major private interest groups and federal bureaucracies in making decisions to import foreign workers in West Germany and the United States in the post-WWI period. It argues that the ultimate locus of decision rests with federal administrators, not interest groups or legislators, and this has implications for citizenship, how we think about policy-making and the role of administration in modern social life.

Pressezitat
"The present study is of enormous value for anyone wishing to understand the complexity of economic and political factors that led to labour migration from Italy, Turkey and other Southern European countries to Germany between the 1950s and the 1970s. It also tells us much about the migration of agricultural labour from Mexico to the USA... I found the detailed analysis useful, well-documented and suitably geared towards comparison with the German case." (Werner F. Menski, Immigration & Nationality Law & Practice)"This study... is informative and well-argued. ...a two-nation comparison like this one is a valuable achievement." (Dirk Hoerder, Labour)
"The author's style is very analytical but very readable, and his research is a contribution to immigration literature and to studies of the morass of bureaucracy. This book is recommended for social scientists, government policymakers, and the general public." (Daniel Mitchell, The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science)
