Djordje Sredanovic goes beyond the theory of citizenship and nationality policy to explore how it is carried out in practice. The book draws on interviews with frontline officers for a comparative analysis of experiences in the UK and Belgium, revealing the level of autonomy of those on the frontline of integration in each country.
In this incisive analysis, Sredanovic compares and contrasts the experiences of citizenship and integration policies in the UK and Belgium.
In-depth interviews with officials illuminate both the everyday application of approaches to citizenship and integration, and their evolution in recent years. By examining the levels of discretion that exist within the two countries’ systems, this book explores the variations within the implementation processes.
The first comparative work of its kind, this book goes beyond the analysis of legislation to explore how citizenship and integration policies are applied on the frontline.

Djordje Sredanovic is an FNRS postdoctoral fellow at the Group for Research on Ethnic Relations, Migration and Equality at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.
