Document Summary
Think of the netherlands as quite progressive, we would assume they are open to immigrants but tis other wise. They never thought of themselves as an immigration country, only in 1998. In terms of research in immigration one of the most interesting country, they have a concept of multiculturalism, it had radically changed in recent years. Until about 1965 it was perceived as a country of emigration. Indonesians in 1949 (very well integrated in the netherlands and are assimilated to the dutch community/ when they arrived 5% of the newly built house were put at there disposal, and had full citizen right since a former colony) Guest workers system (after 2nd world war, economy booming and there was a shortage of labour so recruited from other countries), italy, spain, turkey, and morocco. Third wave that came from the surinam. 4th wave of refugees and asylum seekers after 1985. Up into the 90s immigrants essentially from 5 countries.
