About the Book

Debates on immigrant integration are often caught up in what academics and politicians like to call 'national models of integration'. Researchers and policymakers long for common ground. In the Netherlands, their symbiosis is fed by multiculturalism, something for which Dutch society has long been seen as exemplary. Still, the incorporation of migrants remains one of the country's most pressing social and political concerns. This book thus challenges the idea that there has ever been a coherent or consistent Dutch model of integration. Analysing how immigration is framed and reframed through diverse dialogues, it provides a highly dynamic understanding of integration policy and its evolution alongside migration research. Focus falls on the Netherlands of the past three decades, yet as these findings are held up to the cases of France, Germany and the United Kingdom, insights emerge to more universal questions. Just what are the current political and academic controversies all about? How can governments respond to the challenges of our time? And what contribution can social scientists make? This title is available in the OAPEN Library - http://www.oapen.org.

Review :
"This is by far the best analysis of Dutch integration policies I've ever seen. Scholten convincingly explains three puzzles: how national policy frames change over time, how such changes affect gaps between national and local levels and the role of research. A landmark in policy analysis." -- Rinus Penninx, Coordinator, IMISCOE Research Network "Scholten provides a fascinating account of the role of research in Dutch integration policy. His analysis dispels the myth of a uniform 'Dutch model' and offers compelling new insights about the role of research in policy." -- Christina Boswell, Senior Lecturer, University of Edinburgh. "Scholten's structural-constructivist approach - which fundamentally critiques the national models thinking that has influenced the field for so long - offers an innovative understanding of how integration policies emerged in the last 40 years not only in the Netherlands but in other Western European countries. Utterly convincing." --Leo Lucassen, Institute for History, Leiden University "An intriguing and well-grounded book. Particularly noteworthy findings emerge from Scholten's international comparison of technocracy, multiculturalism, de-institutionalisation, the welfare state, the politicisation of migration issues and their subsequent assimilative turn." -- Elke Winter, Assistant Professor of Sociology, University of Ottawa
