Migration, Integration und Isolation. Zielgruppenspezifische Fallanalyse der Lebensbereiche Familie, Bildung und Beruf weiblicher Migrantinnen in Tirol

Abstract

The connection between migration, integration and isolation is currently being discussed in political, psychological and social sciences as well as the area of healthcare. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the social group of female migrants with small children within the categories family, education and labour market integration. It shows the importance of an intensified integration of this specific group that is highly affected by social isolation through lack of educational and labour market integration. Whereas the first part outlines important theories of integration and assimilation, the empirical part allows a more individual consideration of female migrants and may direct future research on the connection of family, education and labour market integration and their impact on other social minority groups.
