Asylum seekers and refugees generally fare worse on European job markets compared to native populations and other immigrant groups, making them among the most vulnerable populations in the European employment market. However, significant differences in labour market outcomes exist across countries, and countries differ substantially in terms of their policies and practices regarding labour market integration for these groups. Whereas some countries have extensive experience in hosting asylum seekers and refugees and have implemented comprehensive policies to facilitate their economic integration, other countries have only recently experienced increased inflows and have implemented weaker or fewer policy instruments. This chapter discusses the empirical evidence on the relation between asylum and integration policies and the labour market outcomes of refugees, and other key factors that determine how refugees fare on the labour market.","PeriodicalId":110664,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129548541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the dawn of the twentyfirst century, several Western European states began to craft policies requiring immigrants to demonstrate host society knowledge, language proficiency and a commitment to national qua liberaldemocratic values. Categorized as ‘civic integration’, these policies promoted active and productive participation by immigrants in society and the labour market through acquiring a set of ‘citizenlike’ skills. These include speaking the host country language, having knowledge about the country’s history, culture and rules, and understanding and ascribing to the values that underscore their new home. Civic integration policies advance these characteristics with new assessment tools such as integration tests, courses and contracts. Also new is the interjection of the state into the process of immigrant integration, exerting a heavy hand by making status acquisition conditional on completing tests, courses, etc. Finally, in addition to the newness of content, instruments and conditionality, civic requirements uniquely apply not only to naturalization but increasingly to nontraditional membership statuses, including longterm/permanent residence and entry. Given these new hurdles, civic integration is significant from the perspective of the immigrant because it can be a decisive barrier to obtaining status and inclusion. Civic integration is also significant from the perspective of the state as it formally facilitates and mandates integration. By highlighting shared rules of society and concepts of belonging, states are articulating (some for the very first time) concrete and, in principle, accessible definitions of what it means to ‘be British’ or ‘Dutch’ or ‘German’. Here, civic integration represents the latest iteration of the ongoing project of nationbuilding (or, what StokesDuPass (2015) refers to as ‘manufacturing’). On the one hand, this change across mostdifferent systems signifies convergence, where divergent tropes of belonging – from German ethnodifferentialism to French civic republicanism to the multinational understanding of belonging in the UK – face reexamination. This shared change is unidirectional in the sense of states going from zero or informal requirements of membership to robust integration schemes at multiple stages of status. On the other hand, we can question whether states are changing into the same thing and for the same reason. In fact, the question of whether civic integration policies signify an ‘end to national models’ (Joppke, 2007a) in subsuming national differences to produce a ‘lite’ form of citizenship (Joppke, 2010) or not","PeriodicalId":110664,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121144596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This chapter discusses how the growing demand for migrant care workers is related to transformations of European care systems. While public policies stimulate the development of care and domestic services, these policies often contribute to precarious employment and poor working conditions. The chapter also shows how migrant care work is shaped by colonial legacies and stratified systems of entry routes and citizenship within Europe, with specific attention for east-west migration. Finally, the chapter highlights the importance of the politics of migrant care work in relation to social care and migration policy. In this context, political actors at the supra-, trans- and national level are of critical relevance, but they have so far received only little attention in contemporary research on the politics of migrant care work.","PeriodicalId":110664,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123324223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
