Abstract

The article analyzes the main problems faced by German society in the process of increasing the number of migrants: below-average employment; dependence on social benefits; above-average fertility; increase in crime rates, etc. The authors state that the overwhelming majority of migrants, contrary to the expectations of German authorities, do not share the Western European system of values: democratic foundations of society, law-abiding, cultural and religious diversity, etc. On the contrary, cultural and spatial isolation increased the phenomenon of parallel societies living by their own laws and traditions. The article identifies the reasons for the failure of idea and policy of peaceful existence in the format of integration without assimilation. The main flaw in the German migration policy is its fragmented and inconsistent nature. Following a number of researchers, the authors characterize this approach as imitational multiculturalism. The article also proposes a series of measures that can mitigate the effects of multiculturalism policies.
