In the second part of the 20th century “welfare state” model became a recognizable part of social-economic policy in majority of Western countries, called west civilisation countries. Remarkable achievements of this model like: generous social care programs, free education and healthcare systems, complex and universal state support for the families, supplementary payments for them and egalitarian way of income distribution distinguish it from other countries and civilisations. For many years this model was recognized as undoubted achievement of Western civilisation. However, changes in the global economy at the turn of 20th and 21st centuries influenced the “welfare state” policy, which started to be interpreted as a barrier in economic growth. Nowadays, for many people it seems to be a kind of dilemma either to choose dynamic economic growth or rich social state contribution to its society.

Immigration is one of the heavily discussed subjects in modern academic and political debate. In recent decades, fiscal effects of international migration remained the centre of interest. The goal of this paper is to review and synthesise the available literature, devoted to the relationship between immigration and welfare systems, in order to present the state of the art in this area and draw conclusions for further research. Despite extensive literature, it is difficult to find an unambiguous answer to the question, whether immigrants are a burden or an asset to the state with redistributive policies. Moreover, some of the assumptions and approaches widely used in presented articles appear too simplistic or even unfounded.
