This innovative Handbook provides essential insights into understanding the complexities of the rapidly developing field of migration and public policy. It assesses how policymakers at the local, regional, national, and supranational level are defining their approaches in relation to the highly politicized nature of worldwide migration and integration.Editors Maria Schiller and Peter Scholten bring together global experts in public policy, governance, and political science to examine the challenges facing policymakers. They explore the interrelationship between international and national migration policy and politics, the variations in policies when considering different types of migration, and the diverse actors and dynamics in migration policymaking. The Handbook concludes with a reflective section on the field’s development and its significance for public policy studies.This Handbook is a vital reference for scholars and researchers in the fields of public policy and governance, political science, and migration and integration studies. Policymakers and practitioners from NGOs and international organizations will also benefit from this Handbook’s theoretical and practical insights.

This innovative book develops an integrated analytical lens for studying state and civil society interactions in migration policymaking. Maria Schiller highlights the key factors shaping the dynamics between state and civil society relations: efforts to balance power asymmetries, building trust and creating shared ideas and visions of migration-related diversity.Drawing on Robert Agranoff’s concept of ‘collaborarchy’, the book conceptualizes the relations between state and civil society as fluid, spanning a continuum between collaboration and conflict. Bridging urban social movement and governance theories, this concept is explored in case studies such as the top down approach to managing civil society in Rotterdam and building an urban diversity alliance in Mannheim. The book expands its study outside of single actors and structural factors, illustrating how actor relationships are an important predictor for local migration and diversity policymaking.This insightful book is a key resource for students and scholars of politics and public policy, sociology, urban and regional studies and migration studies. It is also beneficial for practitioners in migration, diversity, civic participation and urban governance seeking a deeper understanding of the relations between state and civil society in immigrant policymaking.

Building on extensive fieldwork in Amsterdam,Antwerp and Leeds, the author shows that, rather than simply replacing anearlier politics of difference, local diversity policies combine ideals ofmulticulturalism, assimilation and diversity.
