It sounds like a nice topic..
I will give it a start (my try)
I think two dates should be remembered in this topic:1960s and 1980s.
In 1960s there was a mass immigration to Europe (mainly to Germany and a bit to Holland If I am not wrong). They were INVITED there because of those countries needed for work force at the time.
1980's should be considered as 'escaping from Turkey' because of the cu-de-ta in Turkey in 1980. They were refugees.
Of course we should also mention the Kurdish refugees in this topic as, I think, especially 1990s were the times, some of the kurd came to Europe as refugees in thousands.

Migrants and Refugees are two different entities,One is fleeing a country through persecution,one is fleeing for a better standard of life/to join a society which he/she shares with another member of his/her society in another country(although not necessarily true).This question should really be divided between the two into either 'Migrant' or 'Refugee' as they are not the same,
Or are they the same?
