Integration policies are at the forefront of EU and national
debates. At the EU level, integration issues have gained extensive
importance in the framework of the development of an EU migration
policy. At the national level, discourses about failed integration
policies have put integration policies under high pressure in
political and legislative debates. Thereby, an interaction between
the EU level and the national level can be observed. A general
trend emerges where immigration and integration policies become
increasingly interconnected. More precisely, migrants' access to a
(stronger) legal status is becoming dependent on their level of
integration. This book contains the updated outcomes of a
conference where these interactions have been scrutinized. The
first part demonstrates that several instruments are adopted at the
EU level that frame the emergence of a European Integration Policy
which has an effect on national policies. The second section
outlines a trend in Member States to require third country
nationals to fulfill integration obligations. If such a trend is
fuelled by growing EU attention, EU rules may also limit their
effect. Part three analyzes three national models as examples of
integration policies with mandatory elements. The final part
explores the effects of such integration requirements on the
position of migrants: their integration and their residence rights.
