metadata.value: This paper analyzes the ethnopolitical regimes of assimilation and voluntary integration
  and their theorization in the past and current scholarship. Moreover, an in-depth investigation
  on these regimes applied to the cases of the United States and France will be conducted
  on how the regimes of assimilation and integration evolved through the years. The choice of
  these cases is justified by the fact that the USA and France faced big migration flows, which
  resulted in the need to integrate all immigrants into the social systems of these countries.
  In addition, a comparison will be made between the two country cases. As a result, the
  authors came to the conclusion that some groups of migrants integrate or assimilate better
  than other, and this outcome could be reduced to linguistic, religious, cultural, or even
  phenotypical factors. France and the United States have tackled their migrants and minority
  issues through the years in different ways. Indeed, it is necessary to keep in mind that the
  dissimilar history of the case countries has influenced the developing of the assimilation
  or integration approaches. In the USA, it is more of a political integration, since American
  identity was not a fixed category, but civic nationalism was the main driver; on the other
  hand, we can define the French strategy as one of cultural integration, since the country
  already had an established political identity.
