Summary
Key questions for every state: Who may enter and on what terms? How to integrate migrants and how to define and assess integration? A particularly thorny question is whether a goal of integration should be acceptance of legacy majority's core moral norms. Answers to both questions should reflect the priority of defeating electoral threats to liberal government. The illiberal political mood is stoked by felt threats to identity as well as disproportionate burdens of globalization.
