And should they and their children be granted citizenship? Canada and Germany's responses to these questions during the first half of the twentieth century consisted of discriminatory immigration and citizenship policies aimed at harnessing migration for economic ends while minimizing its costs. Yet, by the end of the century, the admission, settlement, and incorporation of previously excluded groups had transformed both countries into highly diverse multicultural societies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBecoming Multicultural\u003c\/em\u003e explains how this remarkable shift came about. Triadafilopoulos argues that dramatic changes in global norms after the Second World War made the maintenance of established membership regimes difficult to defend, opening the way for the liberalization of immigration and citizenship policies. It is a thought-provoking analysis that sheds light on the dynamics of membership politics and policy making in contemporary liberal-democratic countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 Building Walls, Bounding Nations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 Between Two Worlds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 Dismantling White Canada\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 Guest Workers into Germans\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBibliography\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"UBC Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52739994911000,"sku":"9780774815673","price":24.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/becoming-multicultural-immigration-and-the-politics-of-membership-in-canada-and-germany-paperback-softback-9780774815673","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
