Description:... With the advent of a unified European market, immigration issues have become a high priority on the political agenda. Formerly a marginal topic, immigration has developed into one of the most central and complicated issues of the European Union (EU). The immigration quandary typifies a general dilemma facing the EU countries as they struggle to reconcile national and international interests. The EU countries want to establish a common internal market, removing internal borders to promote competition and growth. This book provides a thorough description and analysis of the dynamics between the EU member states and the Union, and the preconditions for the development of a common immigration policy within the EU.
