Transnational Politics Summary

Transnational Politics: The case of Turks and Kurds in Germany by Eva Ostergaard-Nielsen

Unique - only full length study of the politics of Turkish immigrants in Germany available in English

Important - the trasnational political engagement of migrants and refugees is increasingly important due to the scale of current migration and the ease with which migrants can stay in touch with their country of origin

Topical - addresses issues of citizenship and political participation of migrants (currently being debated throughout Europe) and particularly big issue with the rise of the right in Europe.
