Sažetak
Since the mid-1970's the unemployment of immigrants in Scandinavia has constantly been double that of indigenous Scandinavians.
The purpose of the research project “Options of Unemployed Immigrants” is to elucidate structural causes and institutionalized practices in relation to the high rates of immigrant unemployment in Denmark and Sweden, and to investigate the alternative options of the unemployed immigrants on the labour markets of the two Scandinavian countries. The project investigates the situation of unemployed immigrants from Yugoslavia and Turkey, two of the largest immigrant groups in both Sweden and Denmark. A comparative study of conditions in Sweden and Denmark is especially valuable on account of the two neighbouring Scandinavian countries' markedly different labour market and unemployment policies.
Research is conducted from an interdisciplinary perspective, combining the theories and methods of social anthropology with those of sociological labour market studies. Empirical research combines a limited number of local level case studies with statistical investigations on regional and national levels.
