We are pleased to have this opportunity to thank the many persons who have contributed generously in different ways during the long process that this book took shape. We are indebted to Maryam Kamali, who helped lay the foundations for this project and participated actively in its early development. Our work benefited from several careful critical readings at various stages in the writing process, and for this we thank Wolfgang Bosswick, Dilek Cinar, Sophie Pirie, and James J. Sheehan. Kathleen Newland graciously shared her expertise on refugee policy when she read our chapters pertaining to this issue. Likewise, Bill Davies gave us many valuable recommendations regarding our discussion of the Maastricht Treaty and the evolution of aspects of European Union law. Claudia Diehl offered invaluable data advice. The staff of the Migration Policy Institute provided able assistance at many junctures along the way, but several persons require special mention. Celine Artal provided effective research assistance and some sharp analytical advice. The multi-talented Aaron Ehrlich and Eric Leise played instrumental roles in many different capacities from copyediting and organizing our system of references to conducting considerable supplementary research. Their hard work over long stretches proved indispensable to finishing this book.

For their help in moving this manuscript through the production process, we wish to thank Cassandra Caswell, who copyedited it, and Jeanna Cullinan, Mingzhi Chen, Gretchen Pfau, and Andrew Viteritti, who proofread it. We also are very grateful for the exceptionally fine work of Carolyn Carmody, who prepared our index, and to Shawn Kendrick, who finalized the manuscript for publication. Finally, we wish to thank Melissa Spinelli and Ann Przyzycki of Berghahn Books for their unstinting guidance, support, and patience. Although all of these individuals deserve much credit for improving the book and saving us from many mistakes, we alone are responsible for any errors and shortcomings that remain.

Parts of several chapters draw on previously published articles. Most of this previously published material has been substantially reworked here.
