Refugees have moved into the spotlight of public debate in Europe
and North America, where they are targeted by multiple welfare
state interventions. This volume analyses the tensions that emerge
within the strong welfare states of Northern Europe when faced with
an increased immigration of protection-seeking people. Examining
the encounter between refugees and the welfare states, this book
explores the daily strategies and experiences of newly settled
groups and the role of media discourses and welfare policies in
shaping those experiences. Building on both textual analyses and
ethnographic fieldwork in welfare institutions, asylum centres, and
refugee communities, this volume provides an in-depth understanding
of the complex realities faced by refugees: deterrence and
categorisation, struggle and success, mobility and stagnation. As
social phenomena, Northern Europe's asylum systems and integration
programmes must be understood in the context of the
bureaucratisation of everyday life. -- .
