Bastian A. Vollmer is a Leverhulme Research Fellow at the Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COMPAS), University of Oxford, UK.

"Bastian Vollmer's ambitious book is a very timely analysis of how restrictive immigration policy came to be normalised in two European countries over 3 decades. The book analyses the evolution of policy responses to irregular migration in Germany and the United Kingdom from 1973 to 1999. ... this interdisciplinary book is a very valuable contribution to political science, migration studies and European studies ... ." (Marie E. Tuley, Political Studies Review, Vol. 14, November, 2016) "The study of policy development is certainly of interest with regard to immigration, and Vollmer's study adds to the study of migration discourses an insightful empirical analysis that benefits particularly from its comparative and diachronic aspects. It should help to convince those working in the field of policy-making to take a closer look at texts documenting the process, and it is of interest to all those working on post-war immigration politics and discourses in Europe or European countries." (Melani Schroter, Discourse & Society, Vol. 27 (5), 2016) 'In a very comprehensive and instructive way Bastian A. Vollmer's Policy Discourses on Irregular Migration in Germany and the United Kingdom is a highly welcome contribution to this literature.' European Planning Studies, 2015
