The European Immigration Debate

A. S. Bhalla and Peter McCormick

Chapter 3 in Poverty Among Immigrant Children in Europe, 2009, pp 49-64 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The debate on immigration in Europe, that is, whether immigration from both inside and outside Europe or from one or other country inside it should be increased, stabilized or decreased, is not new (see, for example, Niessen, 1999). But it has become ever more heated since the enlargement of the European Union to 25 countries and then 27 (in January 2007 Bulgaria and Romania became new EU members). One wonders whether the immigrant issue may not have played at least some part in the rejection of the European Constitution by the French and Dutch citizens in 2005.
