Sažetak
Apart from emigration flows that largely dominate in three analyzed countries (Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia), transit and immigration flows are becoming of more importance. In the past two decades different categories of migrants have been moving to these countries. In addition to migrants from EU countries, an increasing number of third country nationals is immigrating, including a significant number of applicants for international protection. After the adoption of the new EU Action plan on the integration of third country nationals in June 2016, issues of regulating migration flows and of new immigrants’ inclusion in host societies have become overtly present in the political, but also in broader social context. The paper discusses the research findings of the Migrant Integration Policy Index (MIPEX) research conducted in 2014 and 2015 in Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia. The findings are interpreted in the context of the European integration and Europeanization processes which, apart from influence on the shaping and development of migration policies, affect integration policies towards third country nationals as well. As the MIPEX methodology fails to take into account the specificities of migration patterns and, moreover, it suggests certain normative expectations, the methodological validity and normative character of the MIPEX research are also examined.
