This book offers a theoretical framework to analyze the interaction between origin and destination in the migrant integration process, providing concrete conceptual tools for measuring integration. It is the first of two complementary volumes, each designed to stand alone with a unique approach to the topic. The chapters delve into integration across eight key areas: labor, education, language and culture, civic and political participation, housing, social ties, religion, and access to citizenship. The text examines the global knowledge on the interplay between emigration/diaspora policies and integration policies. It emphasizes that migrants belong to both their homeland and the new community they are building, arguing for the inclusion of information about countries and communities of origin in integration studies, which is often overlooked. The book targets academics, policymakers, integration practitioners, civil society organizations, and students, establishing a cohesive analytical framework for this critical subject. A complementary second volume builds on this foundation, presenting an empirical analysis of how countries of origin impact migrant integration outcomes.
