Politics of (dis)integration - an introduction / Michael Collyer, Sophie Hinger and Reinhard Schweitzer --
Integration through disintegration? the distinction between deserving and undeserving refugees in national and local integration policies in Germany / Sophie Hinger --
Integration as an essentially contested concept: questioning the assumptions behind the National Roma Integration Strategies of Italy and Spain / Tina Magazzini –
Can integration be temporary? the (dis)integration of temporary migrant workers in Canada and the UK / Şahizer Samuk --
From everyday racist incidents at work to institutional racism: migrant and minority-ethnic workers experiences in older-age care / Nina Sahraoui --
Returning for (dis)integration in the labour market? the careers of labour migrants returning to Poland from the United Kingdom / Mateusz Karolak --
How inclusive institutions enforce exclusive immigration rules: mainstream public service provision and the implementation of a hostile environment for irregular migrants living in Britain / Reinhard Schweitzer --
Jewish immigrants in Israel : disintegration within integration? / Amandine Desille --
Denying, while demanding integration: an analysis of the integration paradox in Malta and refugees coping strategies / Sarah Nimführ, Laura Otto and Gabriel Samateh –
Governing migrants and refugees in Hungary : politics of spectacle, negligence and solidarity in a securitising state / Céline Cantat --
Conclusions : perspectives and puzzles in researching politics of (dis)integration / Violetta Zentai.
Summary: This open access book explores how contemporary integration policies and practices are not just about migrants and minority groups becoming part of society but often also reflect deliberate attempts to undermine their inclusion or participation. This affects individual lives as well as social cohesion. The book highlights the variety of ways in which integration and disintegration are related to, and often depend on each other. By analysing how (dis)integration works within a wide range of legal and institutional settings, this book contributes to the literature on integration by considering (dis)integration as a highly stratified process. Through featuring a fertile combination of comparative policy analyses and ethnographic research based on original material from six European and two non-European countries, this book will be a great resource for students, academics and policy makers in migration and integration studies.
