Book Synopsis
This book provides an authoritative account of policy change over labour migration in Europe during this new era of governance. It reveals the impacts of ideas and knowledge on policy change in two of the major labour importing countries in the EU: the UK and Spain.

Trade Review

Managing Labour Migration in Europe is an outstanding effort to provide an integrated background study of labour migration policies in Spain and the UK."

"This book is indispensable reading for all those involved in immigration policy making or who are active in the area. Furthermore, it provides an essential source of knowledge for academics and students of immigration, addressing explicitly the way that ideas and knowledge affect decision making.
