In einem grosen Feldexperiment haben wir die Ursachen von Diskriminierung gegenuber Bewerbern mit Migrationshintergrund untersucht. Dazu versendeten wir tausende Bewerbungen von fiktiven Personen an reale Stellenausschreibungen in acht Berufen im gesamten Bundesgebiet. Neben der Ethnizitat der Bewerber (deutschstammig oder Migrationshintergrund in einem von 34 Herkunftslandern), ihrem phanotypischen Erscheinungsbild (Schwarz, Weis oder Asiatisch) und ihrer Religionszugehorigkeit (keine, Christlich, Muslimisch oder Buddhistisch/Hinduistisch) variierten wir weitere Merkmale der Bewerbungen, wie das Geschlecht des Bewerbers, den Notendurch-schnitt, ob der Bewerbung ein Referenzschreiben beilag und ob Informationen uber die derzeitige Vertragssituation bereitgestellt wurden. Unsere Ergebnisse bestatigen, dass Bewerber mit Migrationshintergrund gegenuber Bewerbern ohne Migrationshintergrund diskriminiert werden. Allerdings variiert das Ausmas der Diskriminierung deutlich zwischen Herkunf...

This article investigates multiculturalism by examining the relationship between migrants’ group demands and liberal states’ policies for politically accommodating cultural and religious difference. It focuses especially on Islam. The empirical research compares migrants’ claims-making for group demands in countries with different traditions for granting recognition to migrants’ cultural difference – Britain, France and the Netherlands. Overall, we find very modest levels of group demands indicating that the challenge of group demands to liberal democracies is quantitatively less than the impression given by much multicultural literature. Group demands turn out to be significant only for Muslims, which holds across different countries. Qualitative analysis reveals problematic relationships between Islam and the state, in the overtly multicultural Dutch approach, within British race relations, and French civic universalism. This implies that there is no easy blueprint for politically...

Migration and Integration. How societies cope with immigration and the increased cultural and religious diversity is explored mainly in the Research Area on Migration and Diversity. The objects of study include the integration of immigrants along its various dimensions, the reactions of native populations to immigration, as well as the impacts of immigration and diversity on social trust, cooperation and solidarity in society at large. Policies and institutions of core relevance are immigration policies, citizenship, assimilation requirements, church-state relations, and the welfare state.
