Abstract:
"Between 1961 and 1973 Turkish migrants were recruited as guest-workers in Germany, becoming West Germany's largest ethnic minority. This transnational history explores their experiences, emphasizing German racism and the estrangement faced by those who remigrated in the following decades, and reveals how many came to feel foreign in two homelands" -- Provided by publisher
