The planned project aims to analyze the immigration and settlement dynamics and integration trajectories of recent immigrants in Germany. Building upon the international SCIP project (Socio-cultural Integration Processes among New Immigrants in Europe) it is planned to collect two waves of panel data among different groups of recent immigrants in order to adequately describe recent inflows, to answer unsettled questions in immigration and integration research and to provide relevant information for decision makers in the field. We start out from three shortcomings of existing research. First of all, it is difficult to disentangle origin and destination effects when analyzing integration trajectories because migrants included in most data sets have been living in the country for many years at the point of the first interview. Secondly, most data sets still are cross national in nature so that issues of causality remain unsettled. Finally, migration research has long focused on low skilled labor or colonial migrants. Substantively, we plan to study recent migrants immigration and settlement processes and their integration trajectories in the field of their cognitive and structural integration, ethnic and national identities, and acculturation and religiosity based on a standardized survey among recently arrived Poles, Turks, Romanians, Italians, Syrians and Iraqis. Doing so we use a research design that enables us to analyze potential group specific patterns while taking into account origin groups internal diversity. The groups to be included in our study differ with respect to their average educational and skill level, religious background, reasons for coming and the salience of ethnic boundaries they encounter in the receiving country. In order to survey a sufficiently large number of recent migrants we plan to conduct a standardized and incentivized mixed-mode survey in those municipalities that are the most important destinations for the different groups. In a separate project it is planned to supplement this endeavor with a survey among natives in the same municipalities to capture processes of informal exclusion and the construction of ethnic boundaries.

计划中的项目旨在分析德国的移民和定居动态以及近期移民的融合轨迹。在国际SCIP项目（欧洲新移民的社会文化融合进程）的基础上，计划在不同的新移民群体中收集两波面板数据，以充分说明最近的流入情况，回答移民和融合研究中尚未解决的问题，并为该领域的决策者提供相关信息。我们首先从现有研究的三个缺点出发。首先，在分析融合轨迹时，很难区分原籍国和目的地国的影响，因为大多数数据集中的移徙者在第一次访谈时已经在该国生活多年。其次，大多数数据集仍然是跨国性质的，因此因果关系问题仍然没有解决。最后，移民研究长期以来一直关注低技能劳动力或殖民移民。从实质上讲，我们计划根据对最近抵达的波兰人、土耳其人、罗马尼亚人、意大利人、叙利亚人和伊拉克人进行的标准化调查，研究最近移民的移民和定居过程及其在认知和结构融合、族裔和民族认同、文化适应和宗教信仰等方面的融合轨迹。这样做，我们使用的研究设计，使我们能够分析潜在的群体特定的模式，同时考虑到原产地群体的内部多样性。我们的研究所包括的群体在平均教育和技能水平、宗教背景、来此的原因以及他们在接受国遇到的种族界限的显著性方面各不相同。为了调查足够多的新移民，我们计划在不同群体最重要的目的地城市进行标准化和激励的混合模式调查。在一个单独的项目中，计划在同一城市的土著人中进行调查，以了解非正式排斥和种族界限的形成过程，以此补充这一奋进。
