Agenda-items bij Immigration politics in Dutch and ...
In November and December 2011 the Montesquieu Institute, in cooperation with the department of Public Administration and Campus The Hague of Leiden University, organizes a lecture series of eight lectures on migration- and refugee policy in the Netherlands and Europe.
Ostensibly, immigration is a phenomenon that has been on the political agenda as a hot issue for, at maximum, the past fifteen years. However, reality deviates from this image. The eight lectures will shed light on migration and refugee policy from different perspectives: hisotry, law, political science, public administration and international and European studies.
The programme for the series:
