Germany; an Immigration Country
Horst Siebert
Abstract: Germany has about the same proportion of foreigners in its
population as the United States, it is an immigration country. In a way,
Germany has let immigration happen, but it did not really have an explicit
immigration policy in the past. Now it has to make up its mind on its
immigration policy in the future. The paper looks at the experience with
immigration in the past, at the integration of foreigners and at the issues
of immigration policy.
