Inclusion-exclusion Game for the Ethnic Minorities: Access into Labor Market and Coping Pattern of the Families: the Swedish Experience

Integration crisis in labor market is a problem for the ethnic minority people all over the world. It has negative impact on both the minority individuals and their families. Usually the ethnic minority people are excluded from the host society to large extent in many aspects but the labor market exclusion is too hostile as a part of social exclusion. Labor market integration depends on having available jobs and equal treatment for all in the job market. Sweden is called a multi-ethnic society. There are claims that integration process for the immigrants in Sweden is working well. But a large number of statistics show that immigrants are not well integrated in to the Swedish society. This book has attempted to explore the integration situation of the immigrant ethnic minority population in Sweden and the economic strategies that the minority families adopt to continue their existence. The book will be useful for the researchers who are interested in Swedish labor market and the immigrants in Sweden. It can also help the Swedish leaders and policy makers to think about the improvement of the immigrants' integration situation.
