Produktbeschreibung

In the beginning, most immigrants from Third World countries look at immigration mainly as a trip to another country specifically for the purpose of pursuing higher education, seeking employment, or both, saving most of their earnings and returning to their native countries where they would enjoy a better life as a result of the funds they bring with them or the higher education and professional credentials they had gained overseas, that can get them better jobs in their native countries. But it doesnt always work out that way. Many get stuck in America, Europe, Australia and other parts of the world. They are trapped, never to return to their native countries. Ultimately, they have to deal with the worst nightmare of most immigrants from Third World countries: their lives end before they can go back home. This book analyses the underlying factors that create the conditions that force men and women to live in overseas countries with cultures they are not used to or dont like and what can be done to avoid becoming a victim.
