Patrick Ireland argues that it is incorrect to expect unavoidable conflict between Muslim immmigrants and European host socieites. His insighful work shows that institutions matter more than culture in determining the shape and style of ethnic relations.

Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
"A considerable feat of scholarship combining genuine innovation with real insight into Europe's complex politics of migration and ethnicity."-Andrew Geddes, University of Liverpool
"Ireland has done a masterful job in addressing a number of interrelated issues: the entitlements of citizenship; socioeconomic integration and cultural diversity; and the future of the welfare state in face of the pressures of globalization."-William Safran, University of Colorado
"The product of impressive fieldwork, Becoming Europe is a strikingly original analysis of how welfare reform affects immigrant incorporation. Ireland has few peers in his mastery of the details of his topic and he manages that most difficult of feats-to generalize broadly without doing violence to the complexities on the ground."-Gary P. Freeman, University of Texas at Austin
"Few books on the politics of immigration during the past twenty years have been founded on a deeper base of scholarship than that which underpins Becoming Europe. . . . Creatively linking the themes of immigrant incorporation and social policy retrenchment, and investigating the progress of multiculturalism and immigrant incorporation at the subnational level, Ireland makes a unique contribution to the field of immigration studies."-Tony Messina, University of Notre Dame
