Rezensionen

"This is, to my knowledge, the first work that systematically looks at the impact of emigration on political development. It is compelling in its sweeping scope and methodological rigor. Its central message that emigration is good for democracy in sending states is uncomfortable news for our restriction-minded liberal democracies."
- Christian Joppke, University of Bern
