History and changes of Swedish migration policy

Abstract

The article describes migration policy in Sweden and changes within immigration and integration policies. Sweden uses multicultural model which is based on cherishing both cultures, the culture of majority as well as the migrant´s original culture. Very important part of the integrational process is education, especially language and culture learning. Adults are offered special free courses, children study Swedish language and culture at school as part of the curriculum.
