Records the proceedings of a meeting convened to explore some of the difficult problems surrounding efforts to provide health care to migrant workers and ethnic minorities in European countries. Emphasis is placed on factors that can help explain why medical services in the host country fail to meet the health needs of migrant workers and their families. Papers use sociological and anthropological approaches to show how the traditional attitudes and expectations of migrants can lead to a misuse of high-technology medical care. Other papers summarize findings from research into the health needs of migrants living in the Netherlands. The book concludes with discussion of support services recently introduced in several European countries.
