“…Thus, the fact that a large number of Sunni Muslims have a very strong Muslim identity does not imply that the majority of these immigrants are not interested in developing a sense of commitment to the nation. In one study, we also examined religious orthodoxy in relation to Dutch identification and a similar negative association was found (Verkuyten & Yildiz, 2010b). Thus, a stronger emphasis on a "pure" Islam goes together with more distancing from the secular and materialistic Dutch society.…”

“…In both studies, national disidentification was somewhat higher among Sunni Muslims who attach great importance to their religious identity and have higher behavioral involvement (Verkuyten & Yildiz, 2007). However, the associations were again not very strong and in a second study there was no significant relationship between religious orthodoxy and national disidentification (Verkuyten & Yildiz, 2010b). Similar results were found in our study among Turkish‐Germans (Martinovic & Verkuyten, 2011).…”

This article provides a social psychological analysis of immigrants' identification with the country of settlement, that is, their host national identification. We first discuss national (dis)identification in relation to dual identity and religion. Subsequently and drawing on acculturation research and the social identity perspective, we discuss four conditions that can stimulate or hinder the development of national identification: sociostructural circumstances, perceived discrimination, identity undermining, and in-group norms. Furthermore, we underline the relevance of studying two largely unexplored yet important consequences of immigrants' national identification: the evaluations of other minority groups and political involvement. We conclude by recognizing the value of a dual identity and by proposing a number of policies that might facilitate its development. We also discuss the obstacles toward the creation of a harmonious dual identity. These obstacles are related to the way in which the national category is defined and to the four conditions mentioned.On June 13, 1998, President Clinton held a speech on diversity at Portland State University. After his introductory comments he stated "Today I want to talk about what may be the most important subject of all, how we can strengthen the bonds of our national community as we grow more racially and ethnically diverse." The continuing worldwide migration and the increased tensions after, for example, 9/11 and the bombings in London and Madrid have made this "most important subject of all" even more important. In the United States, there is a strong debate on migration and immigration policies and increasingly also about the position of Muslim citizens. In Europe, government leaders such as Cameron, Merkel, and Sarkozy have declared that multicultural policies have failed.

“…Daarnaast stellen ze, op basis van het werk van Bourdieu, dat human capital, ofwel kennis en vaardigheden, gebruikt kan worden om social capital te verwerven. Dergelijke mechanismen worden aangetoond in verschillende onderzoeken die concluderen dat taalvaardigheid en een opleiding in het land van aankomst sociale integratie kunnen versnellen (Bakker & Dagevos, 2017;Martinovic, Van Tubergen, & Maas, 2008;Nekuee & Verkuyten, 1999). Taalvaardigheid en kennis van de cultuur kunnen immers het contact met de autochtone bevolking makkelijker maken.…”

The role of the asylum period for the mental health and social integration of asylum permit holders in Rotterdam This research is about the role of the asylum period for the social integration of asylum permit holders and their mental health. The focus is not only on the duration of the asylum period but also on the effect of relocations and activities like volunteering and (language) education. The research uses data from asylum permit holders in the Dutch city of Rotterdam (N = 701). It is found that the duration of the asylum period has negative consequences for the mental health of the asylum permit holders. This is explained by the many relocations which are related to a longer stay in asylum centers and not because of the living conditions in the asylum centers. It is also found that undertaking activities in this period is beneficial for their social integration once they are outside of the asylum center.
