Abstract: Abstract In traditional immigration countries as well as in many European labour-importing countries, the foreign-born population often form specific ethnic communities. Turks, former Yugoslays and migrants from Maghreb countries have settled in European host countries as foreigners. Even naturalized citizens such as people of Asian origin in the UK, the US and Canada and Nikkei emigrants in South America often form their own ethnic communities in the host country. Despite a series of measures taken to assimilate or integrate migrants into mainstream society, they are usually segregated from natives.
