Resumen:
In the last fifteen years, a European Framework on Immigrant Integration has been developed through soft law tools, aiming to create a common understanding of the concept, and promoting the coordination, funding and exchange of best practices among states, local administrations and non-governmental actors. In this article, we first contextualize the emergence of immigrant integration policies at the EU level. We then examine the principal EU documents on this issue, paying special attention to the link between integration and immigrant participation. Finally, based on an empirical study, we analyze, from the perspective of governmentality, the European Integration Forum, an apparatus considered the ?last word? in immigrant integration policies at the EU level.
