Abstract

Migrants and their descendants are often categorized as «other» by bureaucratic institutions, politicians and the media, despite the fact that many of the people who fall into this category (especially those from the “second” and “third” generations) are well integrated in the host country institutions. As a result, an inadequate picture of social tensions and contradictions existing in society is formed: frequently those complicated relations are reduced to the confrontation between the “host community”, on the one hand, and “migrants,” on the other. Due to this, it seems highly relevant to study the socio-political and cultural activity of individuals with immigrant background in all the diversity of its forms. The success of the policy of social integration highly depends on understanding in which environment migrants and their descendants interact with representatives of other communities.
