Rezensionen

"This is a well-written book that provides a comparative overview of the development of sub-state migration policies vis-à-vis their national projects and identity. The text is recommended to students and academics in the fields of politics, sociology and social policy. ... serve as a complementary insight into the overall macro context of studies that focus on specific migrant experiences in Quebec, Flanders and Brussels and Scotland. ... suitable to scholars interested in migration studies and issues related to sub-state nationalism."
