Harald Bauder, Academic Director of the Ryerson Centre for Immigration and Settlement (RCIS) reviews Becoming Multicultural: Immigration and the Politics of Membership in Canada and Germany. The book uses Canada and Germany as case studies to compare what the book author calls the “migration-membership dilemma,” which describes the contradiction created by states that admit migrants to fill labor shortages or pursue political aims but fail to commit to including migrants into their national community.
