Evidence from an array of European Union experiences explained in readable prose by the best specialists will open your eyes to the possibilities hosted by the local level for successful migrant-centred policies.” (—Aída Díaz-Tendero, Researcher, National Autonomous University of Mexico) “This is the book that the whole of Europe—if not the whole World— has been waiting for! It is well composed and thought provoking, and the aspects of migration, integration policy and local governance are fluently discussed. The representative selection of country cases illuminates interesting View points and history, and examines problems and solutions in different contexts. Migration concerns municipalities—it concerns us all.” (—Hanna Vakkala, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Lapland, Finland) “A unique volume providing deep insights into practices of migration integration and local governance in the context of migration processes in European countries.
