Conclusions
Immigration to Europe high but variable Divergent patterns; policy important. Predominance of non-labour migration but competition for high skilled migrants. Popular opposition forcing some policy changes – e.g. marriage migration Recent downturn, of uncertain duration. Migration paramount in demographic dynamics Substantial ethnic change if recent patterns persist.
