Seven years ago,when I was visiting Germany,I Met with an official who explained to me that the country had a perfect solution to its economic problems.Watching the U.S.economy soar during the ‘90s,the Germans had decided that they,too,needed to go the high-technology route.But how?In the late ‘90s,the answer schemed obvious.Indians.after all,Indian entrepreneurs accounted for one of every three Silicon Valley start-ups.So the German government decided that it would lure Indians to Term any just as America does by offering green cards.Officials created something called the German Green Card and announced that they would issue 20,000 in the first year.naturally ,the Germans expected that tens of thousands more Indians would soon be begging to come,and perhaps the quotas would have to be increased.But the program was a failure.A year later barely half of the 20,000 cards had been issued.After a few extensions,the program was abolished.
I told the German official at the time that I was sure the initiative would fail.It’s not that I had any particular expertise in immigration policy,but I understood something about green cards,because I had one (the American version).The German Green
Card was mismand,I argued,because it never,under any circumtances,translated into German citizenship.The U.S.green card,by contrast,is an almost automatic path to becoming American (after five years and a clean record).The official dismissed my objection,saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these peoplecitizenship.”we need young tach workers,”he said.”that’s what this pro-gram is all about .”so Germany was asking bright young professionals to leavetheir country,culture and families,move thousands of miles away,learn a new language and work in a strange land—but without any prospect of ever being part of their new home.Germany was senging a signal,one that was clearly received in India and other countries,and also by Germany’s own immigrant community.

七年前我到德国访问.在那我遇到了一个官员,他说这个国家已经找到了能够完美解决经济问题的方法.回首美国在90年代的经济腾飞,德国也走上了构建高新科技为核心的经济发展道路.但事实如何呢?在90年代后期,效果显而易见.印度人创建了硅谷三分之一的企业.所以德国政府决定走美国的老路,直接给印度人发绿卡让他们成为经济发展计划的主体.政府官员创造了一个叫做德国绿卡的东西,并宣布第一年会发放20000张.自然而然的,德国人盼望着数以万计的印度人涌入德国,或许绿卡的配额也要提高.可是计划失败了.一年后不到一半的份额发放了出去.再过了一段时间,这个计划被彻底废除.我告诉那个德国官员当时我就觉得这个计划会失败.这并不是我在移民政策方面是个地地道道的专家,但我了解绿卡,因为我就有一张美国绿卡.我论述道,德国绿卡是不合理的,因为就形式上来说,它根本没有和德国的城市环境形成联系.而美国绿卡在其内涵上来说就像是一个让你成为美国人的道标（5年守法的留美经历）.这个德国官员反对了我所提出的异议,表示为大多数移民提供德国公民身份是个门都没有的事情.“我们需要的是年轻的技术人员”他说“这才是这个项目的目的所在”因此,德国让那些既年轻又精明的专家离开他们的国家,文化和家庭,跋涉数万英里,学一门全新的语言然后在陌生的国度上工作,但却永远无法在这块土地上获得能够让他建一个新家的空间.德国的这个信号正在清晰并不断的向印度和其他国家,以及那些属于德国的殖民地区所传递.
