Illegal Immigrants and Developments in Employment in the Labour Markets of the EU

First published in 2003, this book examines the Scandinavian model of social partnership by which labour market relations are governed thus creating an effective barrier to the employment of illegal immigrants. It is invaluable to those interested in labour market relations throughout the world.

Jan Hjarnø, Director of the Danish Centre for Migration and Ethnic Studies, died suddenly in Autumn 2002 and did not live to see the printed book. He was a pioneer in Denmark in the academic study of migration and ethnic relations, and the book stands as a testament to his extensive and unique contribution to this field of study.
