This wide-ranging volume explores the complex history of migration and diversity in Germany from 1945 to today, showing how conceptions of “otherness” developed while memories of the Nazi era were still fresh, and identifying the continuities and transformations they exhibited through the Cold War and reunification. It provides invaluable context for understanding contemporary Germany’s unique role within regional politics at a time when an unprecedented influx of immigrants and refugees present the European community with a significant challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“All contributions are of a high quality. Moreover, far from being niche studies, none of the 12 essays in the volume loses sight of its broader significance. To the contrary, every author endeavours to tie their research to the big historical picture: the legacy of Nazi racial policy, the mass displacements of peoples in the war and postwar years, the use of migration and refugee policy in the  service of Cold War propaganda, the recalibration of notions of ‘Germanness’ after 1990, and the ‘Europeanisation’ of migration  questions over the past 30 years… While much of its content  will already be familiar to scholars in the field, the questions it poses and the research; directions it suggests should prove a very useful starting point for further study into Germany’s inter- actions with Europe and the world.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Journal of Contemporary History\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“One of the greatest accomplishments of the volume is certainly that it diversifies Germany’s migration history while simultaneously putting it into perspective both synchronically and diachronically.
