Rezensionen

'This study provides an illuminating and comparative account of the Kurdish diasporic communities in Britian and Finland and goes beyond sociological observations...Indispensable for undergraduate and graduate collections in sociology, multiculturalism, migration studies, and ethnicity/diaspora studies.' - K. Tölölyan, Choice

'The focus of the book is in the end rather on the integration of refugees. In this respect the book is a welcome and important contribution.' - Eva Ostergaard-Nielsen, Journal of Refugee Studies
