PROSPECTS OF IMMIGRATION IN ROMANIA
PROSPECTS OF IMMIGRATION IN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: The paper focuses on immigration, which structures the contemporary world, highlighting multiple relationships and implications that make this phenomenon of a major importance, worldwide. We try to briefly present the conceptual framework of immigration and the prospects for immigration in Romania. Immigration in Romania is in the pattern of any migration in the start-up phase in Europe. The way in which Romania will manage to regulate this immigration will influence the evolution of the phenomenon over time. Lately, Romanian institutions and NGOs have managed this phenomenon effectively and positively. The legislation has been amended, respecting the European and international framework, so that the phenomenon is very well controlled by the authorities. As far as the Romanian state's policy on immigration is concerned, in the current context it will preserve the limits of the last years. The objectives of this research converge towards identifying the facilitators and the barriers that emerge in the integration of immigrants into the Romanian society, which is in a constant process of adaptation and transformation, socially and economically. In this context, the immigration phenomenon in Romania requires attention, even if its demographic impact is not significant, and foreign citizens registered with legal residence on national territory are below 1% of the total population. For Romania, immigration has proven to be a phenomenon with positive consequences, which contributes to the development of society.
