This article researches the autonomic capacity to build policies for integration of immigrants. For this reason, the research analyzed the approaches and implementation of the transversal plans that the autonomies had on this subject in the period from 2000 to 2005, as those represent the instruments of realization of these policies. The article is divided in two parts: the first one analyzes the institutional network of subjects involved in the integration policies and it shows that the theoretical models of management �based on the plans� and decision taking �based on the Forums� are an a priori approach of what happens in reality. The second part shows that, in practice, the structure of the coordination and evaluation processes of the plans for integration of immigrants shows remarkable differences between what have been planned and the accomplished goals. The autonomic integration policies are based upon the fact that those Administrations have the competencies on management, monitoring and evaluation of the raised actions, but the ability of external influence is limited.
