Abstrakti

An employer of labour will always have economical incentives to argue for import of immigrant workers, to be used as a more cheap and fl exible labour-force.

Further strengthened through theoretical perspectives, the employer’s argument has become widely accepted, and labour import is accordingly often understood as a necessary consequence of growing capitalist economies
