Produktbeschreibung

"It is a conversation about how countries around the world vary in their migration demographic outcomes. It is a conversation about which countries' profiles are similar and which are exceptional. It is a conversation about what drives immigration regimes and demographic trends across these different countries. And ultimately, it is a conversation that we--as immigration researchers--wanted to have with each other, but found impossible given the current state of the field"--
