This book examines local migration policy in Sweden in light of the
European migrant crisis. The novel approach of this volume covers
both local governments' policies on admission of immigrants and
their efforts for enhancing social integration. The focus is on the
division of responsibilities between political levels, examined
through theories encompassing both governance structures and output
and outcomes of policy. Sweden is a rare example where migration
policy has undergone massive changes in the last decade. During the
crisis, the country received some of the largest flows of
immigrants in relation to its population compared with other
European countries. Drawing from statistical material, case studies
and a rich body of interviews, this innovative work provides a
valuable resource that aspires to investigate the significance of
the local level of government in migration policy. The objective is
to reach general conclusions that go beyond the realms of the
empirical focus.
