lt;p>Integration ideologies of immigrant receiving societies have an effect on acculturation orientations, language use, choice and shift of immigrant groups. The book presents empirical evidence on ethnic and religious identification of Turkish immigrants. Education is more predictive of acculturation than generation in the four countries.
lt;p>Immigrant integration dominates the social, political, and scientific agendas of immigrant-receiving countries. Integration requires mutual co-ordinated efforts of both the host and immigrant groups. This book presents a macro level perspective on language maintenance, shift and acculturation orientations of Turkish immigrants in major immigration contexts, namely, Australia, France, Germany, and the Netherlands. The findings show a close relationship between the integration ideology, policies and practices of the receiving societies and the acculturation outcomes of immigrants. Intergenerational differences in language use and choice as well as acculturation orientations of Turkish immigrants in the four national contexts have serious implications for policy makers and researchers.
