The coloniality of integration
Across academic and public discourse, migrant integration is normalised as a desirable outcome. This normalisation has been challenged, centring critiques on the continued coloniality of migration and integration governance. Drawing on empirical case studies, this article contributes to this research on the coloniality of integration by presenting a multi-sited analysis of the science-policy nexus of integration governance. Using text analysis, w…
Reproduction of (Un)-modernity at the site of the everyday
This paper examines how the everyday doing of 'migrant families' is described, problematized, and disciplined within knowledge production practices. Through a critical discourse analysis of research reports originating in the Netherlands and focused on migrant families, the paper explores the discursive constructions of 'modern' and 'unmodern' families, depicted in their doing of 'modern' and 'unmodern values', while highlighting the fluid and co…
New’ Dutch Civic Integration
In January 2022 the new Dutch Civic Integration programme was launched together with promises of improvements it would bring in facilitating the ‘integration’ of newcomers to the Netherlands. This study presents a critical discourse analysis of texts intended for municipalities to take on their new coordinating role in this programme. The analysis aims to understand the discourse in the texts, which actors are mobilized by them, and the role thes…
Challenging the gender binary in occupation-based research
Gender is a constitutive element of an oppressive system based on sexual differentiation. Making difference between the female and male sexes is an accepted practice that is particularly widespread in scientific research. Yet, this research practice can contribute to the construction of gender as an oppressive system with consequences for people’s occupations and health. The aim of the present study is to address the potential contribution of occ…
Decolonising civic integration
European civic integration programmes claim to provide newcomers with necessary tools for successful participation. Simultaneously, these programmes have been criticised for being restrictive, market-driven and for working towards an implicit goal of limiting migration. Authors have questioned how these programmes discursively construct an offensive image of the Other and how colonial histories are reproduced in the constructions seen today. The …
The current and future contribution of occupational therapy and occupational science to transforming the situation of forced migrants
This paper reports on the collective ideas of the occupational scientists and therapists who attended the “Refugees – Addressing Key Social Issues” think tank at the Occupational Science Conference held in Hildesheim (2017). Forced migration is recognized as a prevalent issue in today’s society. Forced migrants face many occupational challenges, which are being exacerbated by restrictive migration policies. This paper outlines the discussions hel…
