Viele Aspekte der Integration von Zuwanderern unterliegen länder- oder sogar gemeinschaftsspezifischen Maßnahmen. Die Einbürgerung ist eine zentrale Erscheinungsform der rechtlichen Integration, die stark reguliert ist. Die Staatsbürgerschaft als potenzieller Torwächter für die weitere Integration wurde in der Migrationsforschung bisher nicht angemessen berücksichtigt. Der Status und die Herkunft der ...
