Title: States against migrants
First published: 2009
Description: "In this comparative study of the contemporary politics of deportation in Germany and the United States, Antje Ellermann analyzes the capacity of the liberal democratic state to control individuals within its borders. The book grapples with the question of why, in the 1990s, Germany responded to vociferous public demands for stricter immigration control by passing and implementing far-reaching policy reforms, wheras the United States failed to respond effectively to a comparable public mandate."--Page [i].
