Integration Requirements for Immigrants in Europe
Hart Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-5099-5007-2 (ISBN)
(1) That the recent proliferation of these (mandatory) integration requirements is rooted in a shift towards ‘individualised’ conceptions of integration.
(2) That this shift is counterproductive as it creates barriers to participation and inclusion for newcomers (who will most likely permanently settle); and is normatively problematic insofar as it produces status hierarchies between native-born and immigrant citizens.
(3) That the remedy for this situation is a firewall that disconnects integration policy from access to rights.
The book draws on perspectives on immigrant integration in multiple EU Member States and includes legal and political reactions to the refugee/migrant crisis.
Tamar de Waal is Assistant Professor of Legal Theory at the Amsterdam Law School, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
