Rezensionen

'A powerful account of the 2015 "summer of migration" and what has followed it, from one of the volunteers on the scene. By drawing our attention to how refugees narrate their own lives - and particularly to what they have to say about politics and civic engagement - Häberlen offers readers not only a persuasive new narration of the refugee crisis, but also a hopeful new way to think about citizenship and belonging.' - Lauren Stokes, Northwestern University, USA

'Häberlen's book is highly relevant to understanding contemporary German society. In the opinion of this reviewer, it would behove German officials and volunteers to heed the author's advice. The accessibility of the writing will make it a useful resource for educators of college undergraduates and high school students. Moreover, Citizens and Refugees is a methodologically innovative book that will enrich graduate methods courses.' - Felix A. Jiménez Botta, Miyazaki International College, Japan, German History
