This open access short reader provides an introductory yet critically analytical exploration of migration and the politics of integration. Drawing inspiration from Nira Yuval-Davis' concept of the 'politics of belonging,' we define the 'politics of integration' as various political projects aimed at constructing integration, belonging, and cohesion within different collectivities. The book explores theoretical debates, such as the cultural, civic, and local turns, governmentality, subsidiarity, nationalism, nativism, securitization of migration, ultra-politics, sub-politics, populism, nativism, multiculturalism, and interculturalism. Based on the authors' empirical research findings, the book analyzes the directions the politics of integration have taken in Europe during the neoliberal era. This era is characterized by a bipolar, Manichean view of the world, which exacerbates the divide between "us" and "them". Written in an assessable way, the book offers valuable insights for social science students at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels as well as for policymakers and practitioners grappling with the challenges posed by migration and its political dimensions.

She is currently completing two large research projects: one examining attitudes toward family migration in Sweden, Germany, and Italy, and another studying the post-war history of Swedish governance of religious diversity, with a particular focus on state approaches toward Muslim organisations. She is also initiating a new project on migrants’ experiences of post-2022 securitised membership policies in the Baltic Sea region, based on interviews and policy analyses in Sweden, Finland, and Estonia. Borevi has published in journals such as Journal of Social Policies, Identities, International Migration Review, Urban Studies, and Comparative Migration Studies, and she has also contributed to many international edited volumes. Borevi also has long experience as a lecturer in political science, from bachelor’s level up to PhD level and is the Master’s Program coordinator of Political Science at S�dert�rn University. For twelve years, she has been responsible for a course within the Bachelor’s Programme in International Migration and Ethnic Relations that introduces students to political science through analyses of migration and politics.
