There is a growing contradiction between structural migration needs and the political resistance to migration, which raises fundamental questions about the ability of modern immigrant societies to steer their course. This lecture analyzes this area of tension in light of empirical data and theoretical concepts from migration research. It discusses what normative and analytical orientation is needed to develop a consistent and forward-looking migration policy.
