Wie gelingt die Integration der Migranten in die Arbeitsmärkte? Welche Auswirkungen hat die

Flüchtlingsmigration auf die öffentlichen Finanzen und die demographische Entwicklung beider Länder? Wie sieht die Einwanderungspraxis beider Länder im internationalen Ver-gleich aus? Was kann Europa beitragen, um die Integration von Flüchtlingen in die Arbeits-märkte zu fördern?
