Leading academics, politicians and practitioners from Community Institutions, Intergovernmental fora and Member States, debate on the ever-increasing cooperation in the area of immigration in Europe. What is the current situation, how do the new agreements affect Community Nationals, what initiatives have been taken at different levels, what are the factors to be taken into account in order to build a coherent European immigration policy? This book brings together a collection of perspectives of specialists in the fields of immigration and asylum. Expressed in a style that is both authoritative and accessible, it will hopefully be a significant contribution to an ongoing debate.
