The Integration Nation

Immigration and Colonial Power in Liberal Democracies

By: Adrian Favell

The notion of ‘immigrant integration’ is used everywhere – by politicians, policy makers, journalists and researchers – as an all-encompassing framework for rebuilding ‘unity from diversity’ after large-scale immigration. Promising a progressive middle way between backward-looking ideas of assimilation and the alleged fragmentation of multiculturalism, ‘integration’ has become the default concept for states scrambling to deal with global refugee management and the persistence of racial disadvantage. Yet ‘integration’ is the continuance of a long-standing colonial development paradigm. It is how majority-white liberal democracies absorb and benefit from mass migration while maintaining a hierarchy of race and nationality – and the global inequalities it sustains. Immigrant integration sits at the heart of the neo-liberal racial capitalism of recent decades, in which tight control of nation-building and bordering selectively enables some citizens to enjoy the mobilities of a globally integrating world, as other populations are left behind and locked out. Subjecting research and policy on immigrant integration to theoretical scrutiny, The Integration Nation offers a fundamental rethink of a core concept in migration, ethnic and racial studies in the light of the challenge posed by decolonial theory and movements.

Philosophies of Integration

Immigration and the Idea of Citizenship in France and Britain

By: Adrian Favell

A comprehensive comparative study of the distinct ideas and political arguments that have shaped French and British policies towards their ethnic minorities, and the effects of these intellectual frameworks at local, national and European levels. Charting the politics and events that brought the respective institutional solutions together, the author sets out the divergent conceptualisations of citizenship, nationality, pluralism, autonomy, public order and tolerance that make up the national 'philosophies' in the two countries - republican integration in France and multicultural race relations in Britain. This new edition, published in paperback, contains a new preface bringing the volume up-to-date in the light of new legislation and progress.

Everyday Europe

Social Transnationalism in an Unsettled Continent

By: Recchi, Ettore,Favell, Adrian

Drawing on unique research and rich data on cross-border practices, this book offers an empirically-based view on Europeans’ interconnections in everyday life. It looks at the ways in which EU residents have been getting closer across national frontiers: in their everyday experiences of foreign countries – work, travel, personal networks – but also their knowledge, consumption of foreign products, and attitudes towards foreign culture. These evolving European dimensions have been enabled by the EU-backed legal opening to transnational economic and cultural transactions, while also differing according to national contexts. The book considers how people reconcile their increasing cross-border interconnections and a politically separating Europe of nation states and national interests.

The Human Face of Global Mobility

International Highly Skilled Migartion In Europe, North America And The Asia-Pacific

By: Michael Peter Smith,Adrian Favell

Alongside flows of trade and capital, the free movement of professionals, technical personnel, and students is seen as a key aspect of globalization. Yet not much detailed empirical research has been completed about the trajectories and experiences of these highly skilled or highly educated international migrants. What little is known about these forms of "global mobility," and the politics that surround them, contrasts with the abundant theories and accounts of other types of international migration--such as low income economic migration from less developed to core countries in the international political economy. Drawing on the work of a long-standing discussion group at the Center for Comparative and Global Research of UCLA's International Institute, this collection bridges conventional methodological divides, bringing together political scientists, sociologists, demographers, and ethnographers. It explores the reality behind assumptions about these new global migration trends. It challenges widely held views about the elite characteristics of these migrants, the costs and consequences of the brain drain said to follow from the migration of skilled workers, the determinants of national policies on high skilled migrants, and the presumed "effortlessness" of professional mobility in an integrating world. The volume also sheds new light on international student migration, the politics of temporary, non-immigrant workers in the United States, new international forms of regulating movement, and the realities of the everyday lives of multinational employees in the world's transnational cities. Key differences between the regional contexts of this migration in Europe, North America, and the Asia-Pacific are also emphasized. Michael Peter Smith is professor of community studies at the University of California, Davis. He has published extensively on urban theory, globalization, and transnationalism including Transnationalism from Below and City and Nation (both available through Transaction) and Transnational Urbanism. Adrian Favell is associate professor of sociology at UCLA. He is the author of Philosophies of Integration, and has published widely on migration in Europe, citizenship, the integration of immigrants, and on social theory.

Immigration, Integration and Mobility

New Agendas in Migration Studies

By: Adrian Favell

A compilation of Adrian Favell's innovative and agenda-setting essays which, since the late 1990s, have charted the emergence of new migration patterns and politics in Europe. Tackling in turn issues of multiculturalism, immigrant integration, free movement, high skilled mobilities, new East-West migrations and regional integration, the collection offers a comprehensive introduction to the dynamic field of international migration studies. At the same time, it poses a sharp challenge to current complacencies, challenging researchers to escape methodological nationalism and the unreflective reproduction of concepts and assumptions in the field, as well as embracing new methodologies and theoretical resources. Moving fluidly across intellectual boundaries as much as national borders, Favell points the way forward to new thinking in this burgeoning and rapidly evolving interdisciplinary field. 'Migration studies is an increasingly vital, but also increasingly crowded field, where the cacophony of voices threatens to drown out any clear message. The exception is found in this volume of beautifully written essays, which puts Adrian Favell's trademark iconoclasm, crackling wit, and deep learning on clear display. Spanning the field and engaging with the controversies stirring scholarly waters on both sides of the Atlantic, Immigration, Integration and Mobility both reviews and sets the agendas for migration researchers. A volume that students and scholars will ponder and savour.' Roger Waldinger, Distinguished Professor, Sociology Department, University of California, Los Angeles 'Adrian Favell is not only the sharpest critic of European migration studies but also a pioneer who takes transnationalism and transdisciplinarity seriously in his own work. The ten essays in this book are a 'best of' selection representative of Favell's interventions... A critical mirror for a booming research field still struggling to understand its topic... Indispensable reading.' Rainer Baubock, Professor of Social and Political Theory, European University Institute, Florence 'This book takes us through several decades of migration debates, while remembering that at the heart of questions of migration are issues of differences in wealth, power, opportunity and futures... Provides much-needed critical perspectives on mainstream migration scholarship that has consistently failed to shed the blinkers of methodological nationalism.' Nina Glick Schiller, Professor Emeritus of Anthropology, University of Manchester 'Adrian Favell is a maverick. His work is always interesting, pushing the boundaries of 'normal' social science and expanding our knowledge of human mobility in all its dimensions... A collection of his most provocative essays, sure to top the reading list of every serious scholar of migration.' James F Hollifield, Professor of Political Science, Southern Methodist University, Dallas
