Resumo: | The immigrant integration policy aims to promote social cohesion and to forge a sense ofidentification with the national community, by establishing bonds of solidarity and the sharing ofvalues and practices among all residents in the territory. In Portugal, in recent years, interculturalismhas been presented as one of the structuring principles of such a policy. In this article, we intend toshow how this policy is reflected in the two first Plans for the Integration of Immigrants, selectingand assessing the measures more directly related to promoting interculturality. We found thatthe vast majority of measures announced as being intercultural in both documents aims to showthe existing cultural diversity and enable the public administration to deal with diversity. Whilethese measures are important to promote and facilitate the integration of immigrants, they arenevertheless not enough to show the intercultural approach of the Portuguese integration policy. |

In Portugal, in recent years, interculturalismhas been presented as one of the structuring principles of such a policy.

Whilethese measures are important to promote and facilitate the integration of immigrants, they arenevertheless not enough to show the intercultural approach of the Portuguese integration policy.A política de integração dos imigrantes tem por finalidade promover a coesão social e gerar umsentimento de identificação com a comunidade nacional por meio do estabelecimento de laçosde união e da partilha de valores e práticas entre todos os residentes em um território. Em Portugal,nos últimos anos, a interculturalidade tem sido apresentada como um dos princípios estruturantesda política de integração dos imigrantes. Neste artigo, pretendemos mostrar como essaintenção política encontrou tradução nos dois primeiros Planos para a Integração dos imigrantes,procedendo à seleção e à apreciação das medidas mais diretamente direcionadas para a promoçãoda interculturalidade. Concluímos que a grande maioria das medidas apresentadas comointerculturais nos dois documentos tem como objetivos mostrar a diversidade cultural existente ecapacitar a administração pública para lidar com a diversidade. Se essas medidas são importantespara promover e facilitar a integração dos imigrantes, elas não parecem suficientes para revelaruma abordagem interculturalista da política de integração portuguesa.
