DePalma, Renée; López, Laura Cruz – Policy Futures in Education, 2014
The social integration of migrant populations has been defined as an intercultural, mutually enriching process, and can be distinguished from processes of assimilation that involve a more unilateral adaptation on the part of immigrants to the norms of the host country. In Spain, this distinction has become blurred in both political and educational…

This study uses Berry's acculturation framework to explore ethnic boundary-setting within…
