Immigrant Integration
This chapter shifts the focus to analyse immigrant integration. We have thus far concentrated on extra- and intra-EU population movement. We now look at ‘what happens next’ by analysing responses to immigrant integration in EU member states. We also show that despite or because of its lack of formal competencies, the EU has developed a role for itself through what can be called ‘soft’ governance strategies.
