About this book

How can European societies more effectively promote the active engagement of immigrants and their children in the political and civic life of the countries where they live? This book examines the effect of migrants' individual attributes and resources, their social capital and the political opportunities on their political integration.

Reviews

"The volume is a welcome and necessary addition to existing research. I highly recommend the book to anyone interested in migration and ethnic relations, or in why people participate politically. It is an interesting read for political scientists and sociologists alike." - Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies

"It is a valuable contribution to the literature on multicultural democracies and one that can be usefully read by scholars and advanced students alike."- Ethnic and Racial Studies
