This book traces Latin American migration to Europe since the
1970s. Focusing on Amsterdam, London, and Madrid, it examines the
policies of integration in a comparative perspective that takes
into account transnational, national, regional and local levels. It
examines the entire mechanism that Latin American migrants confront
in the European cities they settle, and provides readers with a
theoretical framework on integration that addresses the concepts of
multiculturalism, interculturality, transculturality and
transnationalism. This work is based on rich qualitative data from
in-depth interviews, focus groups and participant observation
complemented by a substantial documentary and legislative analysis.
It reveals that current policies are limited and migrants are
excluded in most of the formal venues for integration. In addition,
the book shows the many ways that migrants negotiate the
constraints and imperatives of integration. In Western Europe
today, immigrants are largely assuming the entire responsibility of
their integration. This book provides readers with much needed
insight into why European integration policies are not responding
to the needs of immigrants nor to society as a whole.
