Summary/Abstract: In recent years the public debate in Europe has been dominated by the topic of refugee crisis. Disputeson its solving have become a part of public life in practically all European countries. Intergovernmentalorganisations, like the European Union for example, are also interested in this problem. Austria is one of thecountries that directly experienced the influx of migrants.In the context of these events, it is worth considering three issues. First of all, is it possible to continue theexisting assumptions in the time of the migration crisis? The second is the question of specific challengesfor the “integration package” implemented in Austria. The article also attempts to answer the questions:what is the main costs of integration and what is the opinion about this costs? The economic factor has beendiscussed from several perspectives – the cause, the effect and the kind of challenge for Austria’s integrationpolicy.
