Through an in-depth study of Sweden, Canada, and the Netherlands, Immigration and the Politics of Welfare Exclusion maps the politics of immigrants' social rights in Western democracies. To achieve this goal, Edward A. Koning analyzes policy documents, public opinion surveys, data on welfare use, parliamentary debates, and interviews with politicians and key players in the three countries. Koning's findings are three-fold. First, the politics of immigrant welfare exclusion have little to do with economic factors and are more about general opposition to immigration and multiculturalism. Second, proposals for exclusion are particularly likely to arise in a political climate that incentivizes politicians to appear "tough" on immigration. Finally, the success of anti-immigrant politicians in bringing about exclusionary reforms depends on the response of the political mainstream, and the extent to which immigrants' rights are protected in national and international legal frameworks. A timely investigation into an increasingly pressing subject, Immigration and the Politics of Welfare Exclusion will be essential reading for scholars and students of political science, comparative politics, and immigration studies."-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Theorizing immigrant-excluding welfare reforms -- The limits of economic explanations -- Sweden: universalism, even for newcomers? -- Canada: stability in a country of immigrants -- Netherlands: the sudden surge of selective solidarity -- Conclusions. 650 0 $a Immigrants $x Services for $z Canada. 650 0 $a Immigrants $x Services for $z Sweden. 650 0 $a Immigrants $x Services for $z Netherlands. 651 0 $a Canada $x Government policy. $x Government policy. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008114564 651 0 $a Sweden $x Government policy. $x Government policy. 651 0 $a Netherlands $x Government policy. $x Government policy. 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration $x Government policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908700 650 7 $a Immigrants $x Services for. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00967773 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 651 7 $a Netherlands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204034 651 7 $a Sweden. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204537 830 0 $a Studies in comparative political economy and public policy ; $v 55. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no97006306 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214022507.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DFB316BA083E11EABF3FA51A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
