Summary/Abstract: Integration has become one of the most popular concepts in today’s daily, political, and academic discussions. Countries of all sorts with a large number of immigrants and sizable communities with ‘immigrant-origins’ are now conceptualising several issues and challenges related to immigration and the ensuing ethnic and cultural diversity as matters of integration. While both what they mean by the term and how they are trying to achieve it vary widely, the political nature of the whole process and the hegemony of the concept of integration are beyond discussion.
