Abstract

The article presents immigration models of Germany, France, Great Britain, the US and Canada. North-American states differ from the ‘classic-nationalist’ European states in that they have considered immigration an important factor in their development from the very beginning of their political existence. Although political culture in these countries (the US and Canada) was formed under certain influence, the idea of an ‘ethno-cultural core’ is foreign to them. One of the biggest problems of immigrant integration in Western countries is that immigrants insist on having cultural rights within the public sphere of the receiving country and expect to see them respected. The difference in political culture between immigrant countries of North America and ‘nation states’ of Europe determine the two ways cultural rights are institutionalized in those countries and consequently the exact type of integration problems the countries face.
