Abstract
This article focuses on the struggle of Belgian trade unions with issues of diversity and conflicts of identity among its members. Confronting both national workers' demands and the needs of new immigrant communities, unions have faced the difficulty of reframing their basic principles of unity and solidarity. Immigrants have dealt with the task of connecting homeland standards with those of their adopted countries. Transcripts of union meetings and interviews inform us of the obstacles that foreign workers met on their way to integration within trade union organisations, and show both the evolving thinking on identity and the development of union structures in relation to migration.
