This article provides an overview and comparison of (introductory) integration programs for immigrants in selected EU Member States. The comparative study is based on analysis of relevant legal documents of selected countries, but also on information obtained from secondary sources. It focuses in particular on the following questions: Does the country have integration programs for immigrants? What contents do they cover? Who are the target groups of these programs? Who bears the costs of organization and participation in the integration programs? Is participation in the integration programs mandatory or voluntary? Does the State encourage the participation of immigrants in the integration programs? Are there sanctions for nonparticipation? The article briefly presents also the legal-political framework of the EU in the field of immigrant integration. The author of this article notes that the introductory integration programs, which usually include learning the language of the host country and getting to know its culture and the legal and social arrangements,are a relatively new element in the integration policies of most countries studied. In other countries, where introductory integration programs have already existed for some time, a trend towards making these programs ever more restrictive can be noticedČlanek ponuja pregled in primerjavo (uvodnih) integracijskih programov za priseljence v izbranih državah članicah EU. Primerjalna študija temelji na analizi relevantnih pravnih dokumentov izbranih držav, delno pa tudi na podatkih, pridobljenih iz sekundarnih virov. Osredotoča se zlasti na naslednja vprašanja: Ali v državi obstajajo integracijski programi za priseljence? Katere vsebine zajemajo? Komu so namenjeni? Kdo krije stroške organizacije in sodelovanja v integracijskih programih? Ali je sodelovanje v integracijskih programih obvezno ali prostovoljno? Ali in na kakšen način države spodbujajo sodelovanje priseljencev v integracijskih programih oziroma sankcionirajo njihovo nesodelovanje? V članku je na kratko predstavljen tudi pravno politični okvir EU na področju integracije priseljencev. Avtorica v članku ugotavlja, da so uvodni integracijski programi, ki običajno vključujejo učenje jezika države sprejema in spoznavanje njene kulture ter pravne in družbene ureditve, relativno nov element v integracijskih politikah večine proučevanih držav. V državah, kjer obstajajo že dalj časa, pa v zadnjih letih dobivajo nov, predvsem bolj restriktiven značajTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za narodnostna vprašanja
