Inhaltsangabe

This searching study offers a fresh perspective on the immigrant integration policy in European and North American cities. Revealing just where and how immigrants and their receiving societies interact on a daily basis, the authors show how societal inclusion operates at a local level in a wide range of major urban settings. The individual chapters focus on three particular areas of migration policy - citizenship, welfare services and religious diversity - and consider individual cities in their very different national contexts. Spanning Switzerland, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Canada, the case studies display a great variety in their methodological approaches, while demonstrating the relevance of the local level whatever the differences in state structures, models of integration and centre-peripheral relations. This complex comparative exercise yields important general insights into immigration policies at work, which responsible policymakers cannot ignore.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book prompts a fresh look on immigrant integration policy. Revealing just where immigrants and their receiving societies interact everyday, it shows how societal inclusion is administered and produced at a local level. The studies presented focus on three issue areas of migration policy – citizenship, welfare services and religious diversity – and consider cities in very different national contexts. Spanning Switzerland, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Canada, the cases display great variety in their theoretical and methodological approaches. In all the countries considered, we see that the local level has an undeniable relevance despite differences in state structures, models of integration and centre-peripheral relations. Particularly for future migration policy research, such a complex comparative exercise thus yields an important universal realisation: the local dimension of migration policymaking matters.
