Selected aspects of immigration into the Kingdom of Sweden

Original language description

The main aim of the text is to evaluate the development of immigration on the basis of available statistical data in the Kingdom of Sweden from the period between 2005 and 2014. From the statistical data, i.e. graphs and tables, evaluates questions mainly about the source countries of immigrants, the number of immigrants in the Kingdom of Sweden, illegal immigration, the historical development of immigration and the residence permits and work permits issues. The thesis also deals with the forecast of immigration to the country, using a linear trend. The descriptive method and interpolation were also used. Based on the analysis, it was found that the number of immigrants to the Kingdom of Sweden is increasing and will exceed 2 million inhabitants in 2024. The most immigrants come from the source countries Syria, Eritrea, Poland, Somalia and Afghanistan. Residence permits are mostly issued for the purpose of family reunification. Males outweighs in the number of asylum applications. The problem is the increasing number of illegal immigrants in the country. Currently, it is problem especially of the African countries because of very poor living conditions. The number of illegal immigrants from Syria also increased because of military conflict in the country. Illegal immigration is an undesirable phenomenon that needs to be addressed. Numbers of immigrants from selected countries (Syria, Afghanistan, Poland, Somalia and Eritrea) will continue to increase. As well it will increase the overall number of immigrants in Sweden. Immigration can have both positive and negative impacts. To the positive impacts belong population growth, especially in the working age population, to the negative increase of unemployment and the costs of social benefits.
