https://doi.org/10.18384/2224-0209-2023-2-1283
Abstract
Aim. To reveal the differences and similarities in the implementation of integration and adaptation strategies in institutional settlement of non-territorial interethnic conflicts.
Methodology. The author applies comparative analysis and event analysis of France, Italy and Austria cases of institutional settlement of non-territorial interethnic conflicts in which Muslim migrant communities are involved.
Results. The author concluded that the national institutions which implement adaptation policy are similar to the integrative ones – both strategies rely not so much on formal as on informal institutions. The main differences are the types of the immigrant movements that are involved in a dialogue with the state and degrees of involvement of immigrant ethnic minorities in the cultural life of the host state.
Research implications. The research materials can be used by teachers when preparing special courses on interethnic conflicts resolution.
