A plethora of government- and non-government actors are involved in the labour market integration of highly skilled refugees, forming a complex “system” that is difficult to navigate for integration actors and refugees. Based on interviews with 32 labour market integration actors in Sweden, this article examines multi-level governance gaps in the wake of the simultaneous centralization and decentralization of labour market preparation services. It examines various “steps” in the labour market integration process to gain a more holistic perspective of “the system”, and identifies governance gaps in each step. The article finds that the devolution of services has opened up participatory spaces for non-government actors, but narrowly defined mandates and short-term funding mechanisms hamper cooperation within and between territorial levels of policy implementation.

揭开“体系”的面纱：高技能难民融入劳动力市场的多层次治理差距

大量的政府和非政府行为体参与了高技能难民的劳动力市场融合，形成了一个复杂的“系统”，对于融合行为体和难民来说难以驾驭。本文基于对瑞典 32 个劳动力市场一体化参与者的采访，探讨了劳动力市场准备服务同时集中和分散之后的多层次治理差距。它检查了劳动力市场一体化过程中的各个“步骤”，以获得对“系统”的更全面的视角，并确定了每个步骤中的治理差距。文章发现，服务下放为非政府行为者开辟了参与空间，但狭隘的任务授权和短期融资机制阻碍了政策实施的地区内部和地区之间的合作。
