abstract: 'We present findings from an anthropological field study on the role of
language and language policy in migration from Poland to Norway, and the
larger implications for emerging language and immigration policy in
Europe. Initial fieldwork in Norway found that Polish workers without
knowledge of the Norwegian language struggled to secure employment in
the formal economy. The 2008 financial crisis intensified competition in
the labour market and underscored fluency in Norwegian as a means of
discriminating among workers. Comparative case studies of language
schools revealed that these organizations are active participants in
channeling Polish migrants'' movements into a segmented labour market,
often in ways that involve cooperation between private companies and the
State. We frame the Norwegian case within the larger context of Europe
and the trend there toward favoring integration over multiculturalism.
The emergence of restrictive language policies in Europe may be
interpreted as a legally and culturally acceptable means for
discouraging access to rights associated with permanent residency or
citizenship by work migrants from CEE countries, while at the same time
permitting them access to the labour market for temporary work. The
long-term consequences of such policies for European society are
uncertain.'
