Abstract:
In the mid- to late-nineteenth century, millions of Germans emigrated to the New World. Today, however, immigration to Germany is an integral aspect of everyday life in the country. The consequences of immigration are far-reaching, ranging from the wealth of culinary options offered by Italian, Greek, or Chinese restaurants, to the social costs of employing thousands of foreign workers in Germany’s construction sector. In the Ruhr River area, Germany’s largest industrial melting pot, Turkish names are now as common as Polish names—the latter representing an immigrant group that settled in the area some 100 years ago.
