David Smith and Enid Wistrich have undertaken research together since 1996 in the fields of immigration, migrants and ethnicity (funded by the European Commission DG V and the European Cultural Foundation), and regional identity in Europe (funded by the James Madison Trust). This work has resulted in a number of books, academic publications and conference papers. Their current research, culminating in this book, has been funded by the James Madison Trust.
