Italian people were jobless.
A law let employees come to German companies.
After the work effort they should leave Germany.
Italians brought their families to Germany.
4 million Italians have come to Germany.
LIFE OF AN ITALIAN IMMIGRANT

His brother went back to Italy.
His children had problems at school.
He was 22 years when he came to Germany.
Germans offended him.
He had to care for his family because he was one of
the oldest children.
LIVING S ITUATION OF GUEST WORKERS
Flats
• Guest workers lived in
small and unpleasant flats.
• Had to share it with other
workers:Up to six people shared one flat.
• Had only the things they
really needed to live there,like a bed and the kitchen equipment.
They received less payment
than the Germans:Didn't “deserve“ the same.
The rent was deducted from
the payment.
Were often “bad mouthed“Like: “Itaker“ (wop), “Polake“ and “frog-eater“.
Rumours were spreadLike they are womanizers.
Lived separated from the
Germans.
SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL SITUATION

Violence starts at ages 14-17 (when jobs actually don’t play a role).
When they grow up in an area where there are a lot of criminal gangs, it is easy to get on the wrong track.
Germany and Britain are not sharing the best-practise strategies when it comes to tackling the problem.
Most crimes are committed by young Muslims. Germany has decided to give them consistent advice.
