The article explores how integration policies in Spain and Sweden affect migrants' economic and cultural integration. They looked at specific policies in each country and used a special framework to analyze the impact. The results show that Spain's policies helped EU migrants with socio-cultural and economic integration, but had a negative effect on non-EU immigrants. In Sweden, the integration plans had a weak effect overall. It's important for integration policies to understand migrants' needs to help them successfully integrate into their new societies.
