Sažetak
The objective of the paper is to present a part of the results of the research for the Austrian federal ministry of science and research “Immigrants and integration within compound ethnic relations: the case of Croats in Vienna” as a part of the program “Austria without borders”. Author investigated the specifies of the integration of Croat immigrants and indicated on their example that the present state of the integration research is not in accord with the conditions of immigrant and general ethnification of the host societies. The Case of Croats in Vienna is an excellent example of the structural complexity of the relations developed by the immigrants which have to be taken into consideration while investigating integration as a process of decreasing individual and collective distance of immigrants from resources, roles and values of the host society. Croat immigrants in Vienna develop their relations with Burgenland Croats, well integrated and politically recognized Austrian minority but also find themselves in a situation which sometimes enables conflict with the Serb and Bosnian Muslim immigrants.
