ABSTRACT

This chapter deals with the relationship among three different groups of immigrants from the former Yugoslavia in the southern Swedish city of Malmö. The first group comprises so-called ‘old’ immigrants (mostly Serbs), i.e., those who came to Sweden during the 1960s and 1970s as labour immigrants. The second group is comprised of Bosnian refugees (mostly Bosniaks1) who came to Sweden before June 1993, and who have received a permanent residence permit (PRP). The third group is comprised of those Bosnian refugees who arrived in Sweden after 1993 with Croatian passports (mostly Croats) and who have received temporary residence permits (TRP).
