Chapter 1 in Organising Immigrants' Integration, 2023, pp 1-6 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This collection assembles studies that draw on a variety of approaches to the timely subject of immigrants’ integration into labour markets and societies. Its aim is to make a contribution to migration and integration research in general and management and organisation studies in particular. The authors include both conceptual reasoning and their own fieldwork to address the issues related to the processes of organising integration in practice, and their consequences—for immigrants and for organisers. The contributors are both experienced and younger scholars from various fields of social sciences. In their texts, they play with well-known concepts and ideas, but also introduce new ideas and metaphors, connecting migration and integration phenomena to the trials and tribulations of contemporary organising. Many different voices are heard in the stories told—voices of refugees, immigrants, public officials, private entrepreneurs, managers, and volunteers. Yet they all focus on processes, not on structures; on organising rather than on organisations—because integration may take place within as well as outside formal organisations.
