Abstract
The academic empirical research on the so called “migrant social integration process” has expanded along EU during last decade. At present an important effort and investment has made in order to evaluate this process with objectivity. However, it seems to be formal problems (lack of comparison from different uses with statistics) as well as substantial or material problems. There are so many descriptive researches on “social integration” as different conceptualizations about what does “social integration” mean. It means difficulties to compare the evaluation of politics and practices along European countries even using the same statistical and other legal sociological tools. This working paper tries to collect some ideas and suggestions as starting previous points regarding the question: what are we going to evaluate?
