Conclusion
Abstract
It is the very qualities (real or imagined) that make certain groups particularly suitable for their role as workers that make them unsuitable for membership in the receiving society. Shared by all classes and strata in the receiving society, these integrative concerns, whether expressed in manifestly xenophobic ideologies or by way of euphemistic codes, universally impinge upon the determination of immigration policy. The conflicting interests of industrial societies – to maximize the labor supply and to protect cultural integrity – can be thought of as a dilemma to which a limited number of solutions are possible. 1
