Fragmented Fatherland - Immigration Cold War Conflict in Federal Republic of Germany, 1945

The only comparative studies of the internal development of different immigrant communities in the Federal Republic during the Cold War.


Explores political conflict within various immigrant communities, and sets out a far more nuanced analysis of their internal development than most current scholarship which tends to assume that these are ethnically, socially and religiously homogeneous groups.


In contrast to a widespread emphasis in current scholarship on the social isolation of immigrants, this study shows how they have been able to exert significant influence over the politics of the Federal Republic through an examination of the complex interaction between German political institutions and immigrant movements.
