“移民融合”的概念执行两种话语工作：（1）它将社会科学家，政治家和参与的公众的目光从那些被标记为“移民”的人在参与和归属方面都是移民接收社会的正式成员的实际方式上转移开，（2）对移民融合的关注导致未能注意到各种政治，“东道国”社会的社会和经济问题，包括与“移民”标签的增加有关和无关的问题。历史化的概念，移民融合在后殖民和新自由主义的社会关系，并从超过10年的研究头巾的辩论，伊斯兰教法，社会和经济参与的少数民族妇女，所谓的“荣誉为基础的”暴力，我展示了如何移民融合的概念产生性别和种族化的非归属感。最后，我主张回到一个重点放在不平等的大分析的方式，成为附加到“移民”横切多个群体在任何特定的社会中的问题。
The concept of 'immigrant integration' performs two kinds of discursive work: (1) it turns the gaze of social scientists, politicians, and the engaged public away from the actual ways in which those labelled 'immigrants' are full members of immigrant-receiving societies, both in terms of participation and of belonging, and (2) the focus on immigrant integration leads to a failure to attend to various political, social and economic troubles of 'host' societies, both those that are and those that are not related to the increased presence of those labelled 'immigrant'. Historicizing the concept of immigrant integration in post-colonial and neoliberal social relations and drawing from over 10 years of research on headscarf debates, Sharia law, the social and economic participation of ethnic-minority women, and so-called 'honour-based' violence, I show how the notion of immigrant integration produces gendered and racialized non-belonging. In conclusion, I argue for a return to a focus on inequalities writ large to analyse the ways in which the problems that become attached to 'immigrants' cross-cut multiple groups in any given society.
