Introduction to Immigration, Intra-EU Mobility, and the Welfare State

-

Clare Fenwick is a postdoctoral researcher in Political Economy. 

This lecture examines key trends in European migration and explores the ability states have to address inequality within their borders in light of increasing immigration and movement of EU mobile citizens. We will look at the role of immigration and mobility in transforming the boundaries of European welfare states and try to better understand the debates surrounding the wide-reaching effects of immigration on social policy. Moreover, we will discuss the dilemmas that policymakers face when trying to reconcile their national welfare systems and labour markets in times of increasing migration.
