Full textThe zairian government and the french one didn't sign a convention related to immigration. Despite that fact, zairian immigration is far more a social, cultural, and economic reality than a myth. The zairian immigrants' presence increased in the early 80's. However that may be, this immigration shouldn't be comparable to the former ones people could witness in france, a phenomenon which-seems to be atypical. In spite of the immigrants' good command of the french language. Their integration was such an ordeal that they had to abide by drastic measures

Full textThis thesis analyses for the first time the language practices of the growing community of Egyptian immigrants in France. The morphosyntactical analysis is made in the framework of insertional theory Matrix Language Frame of Myers-Scotton (1993, 1997 and 2000). We find that the Egyptians of the first generation resort to code switching without realizing it or recognizing it while those of second generation are aware of the linguistic characteristics of the language contact. Furthermore, the Egyptian woman, with her role of maintaining Arabic with her children, finds her femininity in learning French and therefore she plays an important role in the practice of code switching within the family. The reasons of the code switching in the Egyptian community are varied, for example, the quotation or the reported speech ; the designation of an interlocutor by integrating into a group an interlocutor kept apart ; the humor that particularly characterizes the Egyptians of the first generation ; the spontaneity and the precision by opting directly for the most immediately available lexeme even if it is in a different language than the rest of the communication. Our informants of the first generation use morphological procedures to simplify the use of French words having sounds that don’t exist in Egyptian Arabic or those that consist of more than three syllables. We use the characteristics of this language contact to help Egyptian students newlly arrived to succeed in their schooling and integrate into the French society through the mastering of French language
McAvay, Haley. "Immigrants’ spatial incorporation in France : patterns and determinants of neighborhood and housing attainment." Thesis, Paris, Institut d'études politiques, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016IEPP0036/document.
Full textMy dissertation provides a comprehensive analysis of the neighborhood and housing outcomes of immigrants and natives in France. I draw on two large data sets, L’échantillon démographique permanent (INSEE) and Trajectoires et origines (INED/INSEE), which provide rare information about first and second generation immigrants, combine individual and contextual-level variables, and span several dates of observation (1990-2008). Drawing on classical theoretical approaches to immigrants’ spatial incorporation (spatial assimilation, place stratification), as well as insights from the social stratification and neighborhood effects literature, the analysis is rooted in a multidimensional, longitudinal and intergenerational approach to residential inequalities. First, I use a variety of indicators of the composition of neighborhoods (i.e. share of immigrants, co-ethnics, low-income households, the unemployment rate) in addition to housing tenure to explore associations between various dimensions of residential outcomes. Second, using longitudinal data and panel modelling techniques, the analysis captures patterns and determinants of residential mobility, transitions in neighborhoods, access to homeownership and moves in and out of the public housing sector. Finally, contributing to recent empirical work on the intergenerational reproduction of context, I seek to assess the extent to which residential situations are transmitted between parents and their children. The analysis seeks throughout to document the effects of individual factors (nativity, immigrant origin, socioeconomic status) and contextual factors (municipality and departmental characteristics) on shaping residential inequalities

Full textThe immigrants who opened workshops or shops or went into peddling in the Seine Department between the two world wars hardly fit the usual profile of "immigrant workers". Shunning foreign labour recruitment networks, they basically defined themselves by their independent status. A primary source in this work, the Trade Register instituted in 1919 was the first administrative documentation identifying traders by nationality. Yet, petty trade after the First World War remained open to all, irrespective od nationality. To define the status of these immigrants one is led to assess their social standing according to their progress. This research asserts the prevalence of time and of migration patterns in the paths leading to independence. Foreign petty traders differential among themselves between "pioneer" and "established" traders. .

Full textFrance is yet to have a standardized immigrant health data collectionsystem. As such, data of immigrants’ health is still irregularly determined. Theclosest immigrant health data available is the self-reported status of health. Thisis a both a problematic state and surprising because France enjoyed the title ofbeing one of the countries in the world with best health care system despite thelack of concrete immigrant health data. This put into question how immigrants aremoving around the health care system of France.Filipino immigrants living in the South of France are the main respondentsof this research. Focusing on how their native culture and language interplay withthe health system of France, this study utilized Survey, Key Informant Interviewand Direct Observation to gather data.This research hypothesized that language is still a barrier for Filipinoimmigrants seeking medical care. In addition to this, the traditional health culturealso plays a very important part in the Filipino immigrants’ practice of healthdespite their long years of stay in France. Despite this however, they were ableto adopt to the French health care system however, this adoption needs to beproperly identified and described. Within the interplay of culture, language andthe health system of the host country, immigrants –knowingly or unknowinglycreatean emerging health culture that is distinct to their cultural origin,understanding of a good or bad state of health and manner of expression.This study revealed that despite the fact that Filipino immigrants in theSouth of France have been living here for a considerable amount of time,traditional health beliefs are still part of their health practices. Health matters arestill a family affair and there some of their medicines are imported from thePhilippines. On the other hand, they have also adopted some ways to takeadvantage of the French health care system. They visit their doctors more often,they religiously take their medications and they enjoy more treatment options.They were able to enjoy all these because they are covered by the UniversalHealth Insurance System of France.On the other hand, Filipino immigrants remain a passive patient. Hemaintains a come and go attitude with their medical providers because languageremains a barrier. In addition, Filipinos are natural shy people and they always trynot to have long conversations. This remains a challenge for healthprofessionals for they themselves are not properly trained and prepared tohandle patients speaking another language

Full textIn order to present the specificity of social integration process of the immigrants in the host country, our research propose to analyze the case of Romanian immigrants in France. We consider social integration as a process that has its own characteristics and dimensions and, in the same time, as part in a complex system where more interdependent process are involved. In consequence we construct our research project based on this perspective. We analyze firstly the social integration process according with its own dimensions and secondly in relation with the migration and the rule transgression processes. Social integration and these two others social processes that could influence the first one, are each analyzed at macro, meso and micro-social level. The intensive study on social integration, the main study of our research project, is oriented on the analyses of its dimensions: structural, cultural, relational, identity, satisfaction and future plans. This study is based on field research realized in France, more exactly in the towns of Paris, Nice, Montpellier, Strasbourg and Bordeaux. Then, in order to identify the relation between migration and social integration, another study on emigration was run in Romania. Observing the important relation between social integration process and the negative image of Romanian immigrants, we introduce in our project a new research oriented in analyses the forms of transgression of rules
Edo, Anthony. "Immigration, wages and employment evidence from France." Thesis, Paris 1, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA010025/document.
Full textIn the past two decades, the fraction of the population in developed countries that is foreign-born increased from 7% in 1990 to 10% in 2010. The rise in the demographic importance of international migration led to a parallel increase in the amount of time and effort that economists devote to studying the consequences of immigration. One of the main questions raised by economists is related to the labor impact of migration in receiving economies. What is the impact of immigration on the employment and earnings of native workers ? This dissertation contributes to the immigration literature through a deep empirical investigation on the effects of immigrants on native wages and employment in France over the 1990-2010 period. This dissertation is composed of two main parts. The first part investigates the short-run effects of immigration on the outcomes of competing native workers (who have skills similar to those of the migrants). I find that immigration has a very small negative impact on the wages of competing natives. This result is consistent with the prevalence of downward wage rigidities in France. However, I show that immigration decreases the employment rate of natives with similar education and experience : a 10% increase in the immigrant share due to an influx of immigrants is associated with a 3% fall in the employment rate of competing natives. Since immigrants are relatively more attractive for firms (while they are identical to natives in all other respects), a substitution mechanism operates between natives and immigrants. The second part extends the analysis by providing a full picture of the wage impact of immigration in France. In this part, I allow the labor market to adjust to immigration in the long-run. In addition, I account for the complementarity effects induced by immigration on the wages of natives with different skills. The estimates indicate no detrimental impact of immigration on the average wage of natives. This part also provides the distributional effects of immigration by education and gender. In as much immigrants to France has been disproportionately high educated in the past two decades, I find that immigration has reduced the wage of highly educated native workers and has contributed to raise the wage of low educated. Thus, immigration-induced shocks to French labor supply have served to reduce wage inequality between low educated and high educated workers. Moreover, I find that immigration has lowered the relative wage of female natives and increased the wage of male natives. This asymmetric effect is due to the facts that immigration has disproportionately increased the number of female workers since 1990, and also that men and women of similar education are imperfect substitutes in the production process

Full textThis thesis focuses on the study of urban segregation, ie the isolation both social and spatial of certain groups of individuals within cities. Also, to characterize groups of individuals and measure their degree of social integration, this thesis focuses on the definition and measurement of identity, defined as a person' sense of self. In the first chapter we focus on a measure of urban segregation, proposing a theoretical and empirical analysis of an index of Economic segregation on a continuous variable (the income) in France. We then are interested in a second chapter by the social integration of immigrants and children of immigrants in France where the ethnic identity of individuals is an expression of this integration. This chapter introduces an index that allows continuous measurement of ethnic identity and captures a certain distance in identity. We compare this index with other usual measures in the literature and study the socio-economic determinants of ethnic identity. Finally, in the third chapter, we focus on the effects of urban segregation in the degree of cooperation and trust of individuals. We study the potential impact of the neighborhood residency of a person on his trust . For this, we perform an experimental study in different schools in Rennes among teenagers

Thesis, Université Côte d'Azur (ComUE), 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017AZUR2012/document.
Full textSince long back, traditional media produced by and for immigrant and ethnic minorities, have been the preferred communication tools of these communities. Through the democratization of the access to new technologies such as Internet and ‘the Web’, and in particular through the expansion of social networks, these minorities have become consumers and producers of user generated content. Such tools also allow them to stay in contact with their relatives and the members of their community in the adopted country. Thus, this media has a double function: it facilitates keeping in touch with the user’s community, and it provides a means for sharing information relevant for the latter. Moreover, the social dimension of these digital tools gives them a third functionality: it establishes connections with the society of the foster country. Thanks to this online sociability, a relation is formed and this contributes to the integration of the communities within their new social, linguistic and cultural environment. In order to study this potential integration process, I have since 2011 worked with teenage members of a Cape Verdean community living in Nice, France. The objective has been to analyze their social networking online and offline, and their use of Facebook. From a methodological standpoint, this study has been conducted by the use of social network ethnography and of Netnography. The work is the results of seven years of observations of practices in the online and offline worlds, with the objective to provide an understanding of how social media can contribute to the integration of ethnic and immigrant minorities in France

Such sector is detailed, such social group is studied or such practice is analyzed but none has, until now, treated the abstract one in its globality. This research relates to the Goutte d’Or’s neighborhood in Paris, popular district with social housing, classified as disadvantaged urban area (called ZUS in France), historically invested by the migrants and where the gentrification is on progress. In this territory where the activity beats full sound, two forms of trade coexist: well-established shops, held by immigrants and the sale on the run, practiced by immigrants also. This coexistence in the French capital caused from the start a key question: which are the place, the role and the future of these forms of trade in a city in full change? The succession of the migratory waves ended in a profound social reorganization. Land of welcome of the provincial, this space passes gradually of an enclave from a North-african enclave towards an African hub, characterized by a strong immigrant identity, called africaness. This work has for objective to restore informality of Goutte d’Or’s neighborhood in its entirety, to analyze the societal and economic modalities to reveal the impacts and the territorial and political stakes

Full textThis doctoral dissertation studies the role of migration trajectories from and to metropolitan France in individuals’ trajectories. Breaking with the conventional depiction of migration as a one-way and one-time movement, this thesis aims first of all at improving our knowledge of immigrants’ remigration in France. By considering France both as a place of arrival and departure, this research more broadly seeks to renew the analytical approach of migration, by drawing systematic comparisons between several types of migrants rarely studied together: immigrants, internal migrants from overseas French departments, French nationals born abroad, second generations, and natives. I combine large datasets drawn from censuses and tax returns (the Permanent Demographic Sample, 1975-1999, 2011-2016) and the Trajectories and Origins survey (2008). Thus, this research is based on an original empirical framework that makes it possible to explore the role of migration experiences in individuals’ trajectories at various points in the migration process. The comparison between different populations reveals the diversity of migration patterns from France, and of their determinants. The combined analysis of these selection processes and of the effects of an international experience on professional careers upon return in France provides new insights into the role of migration in the (re)production of social inequalities. Finally, this thesis shows the need to consider past migration and potential future remigration of immigrants to understand the mechanisms of socioeconomic integration in the host society

Full textThe statistical work was completed with 317 people. The data collection tools were NEO-Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), short version of the WHO quality of life questionnaire and the Cultural Intelligence Questionnaire. For analyzing the data, descriptive and inferential statistics (correlation analysis, regression, and structural equations) were used. The findings show that personality traits have a significant correlation with the quality of life. Among those traits, there is a negative correlation with neuroticism and a positive one with the other four factors. Meanwhile, all the factors of variable “quality of life” have a significant positive correlation with all the components of cultural intelligence. Regarding the goodness-of-fit indices of the final model, we can claim that the provided model and its regression coefficients show that these coefficients would accurately explain the prediction of the quality of life based on personality traits and cultural intelligence
Lesné, Maud. "La perception et la mesure des discriminations racistes et sexistes." Thesis, Paris 8, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA080112/document.
Full textDiscrimination has finally been acknowledged as one of the mechanisms behind the inequality that pervades French society and contributes to the formation of minoritized population groups. The present doctoral thesis explores the perception, identification and reporting of racial and sexist discrimination from a methodological perspective, drawing on data from the Trajectories and Origins (TeO) survey. There is no automatic correspondence between occurrences of discrimination and their reporting. This thesis refutes the suspicion that racial discrimination is over-reported, fed by the huge volume of recorded cases, and confirms the massive under-reporting of sexist discrimination, which makes it appear a marginal phenomenon. While the TeO survey successfully circumvented the obstacles that traditionally deter respondents from reporting racial discrimination, namely doubt, resignation, a refusal of victimhood and a belief in merit, it could not overcome the mechanisms that inhibit the reporting of sexist discrimination. The latter’s largely systemic nature has led to its internalization, while women’s lack of awareness and the discrediting of feminism in France have also helped to make sexist discrimination difficult – if not impossible to measure. Moreover, the use of an intersectional approach revealed that being dominant in relation to sex, but dominated with regard to so-called race, places racialized men at a tension-charged intersection that makes discrimination against them more visible than that experienced by racialized women

These communities are the ideal place to analyze the challenges of power among people who have been ruled by other kinds of power. The links with the country of origin are questioned out of the migratory trajects and the stories, the policies and the didentifications of these immigrants and their descents are also studied.The power challenges and the interactions between the immigrants and their relatives living in the country of origine will be analyzed through the migrations and the bilateral cooperations. The politicla and economic context is an important factor in this research.Key words : migrations, power challenges, Diola, associations, identities

Levionnois, Charlotte. "The employment conditions of native-born people with immigrant parents : a comparison between France and The United States." Thesis, Paris 1, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA01E042/document.
Full textThe comparison between France and the United States shows how the inequalities in terms of employment conditions between descendants of immigrants and of native-born persons differ.This thesis proposes an empirical and comparative analysis of the employment conditions of immigrants’ offspring in France and in the United States. The goal is to better characterise the labour market integration of immigrants’ offspring, taking a multidimensional approach. The comparison between France and the United States highlight the dimensions of inequalities in terms of employment conditions between the descendants of immigrants and of native-born in each of country, henceforth improving the characterisation of these inequalities. Our analysis explores overeducation in a first chapter, in a second chapter, three aspects of the socio-economic security of job quality and in a final chapter, the distribution of wage differentials. Although differences in terms of employment conditions exist in both countries to the detriment of immigrants’ offspring, these differences do not appear to be the result of inequalities but rather of structural effects such as differences in age or education level between the two groups. The occupations and sectors of activity in which descendants of immigrants work also explain these differences. The results show similarities between the two countries. Once the selection bias to access employment is taken into account, having immigrant parents has no significant effect on overeducation (chapter 1) but a positive and significant effect on wages (chapter 2). On the other hand, the two countries differ on several points. In France, having immigrant parents significantly restricts the access to employment and lowers job security. However, in the United States, there is a negative effect only on working time (chapter 2). This thesis advocates for the consideration of the heterogeneity that exists within the population immigrants’ offspring, according to their parents’country of origin. Indeed, contradictory effects according to the parents’ country of origin may lead to non-significant effects at the aggregate level, as is the case for overeducation, for example. The final chapter shows a wider wage gap for low-wage workers in the two countries. Nevertheless, the major difference between the two countries is that the unobservable component contributes to narrowing the wage gap between natives and of immigrants but to increasing it in France

Full textInternational migration is increasing and Europe is no exception with immigrants accounting for more than 10% of the total European Union population in 2014. One pressing issue is tobacco use in immigrants as they may use tobacco differently from the natives of the hostcountry and this could result in differing tobacco‐related cancers (TRC) risks compared to those in the natives. However very little is known about tobacco use, a major avoidable cancer cause, and TRC in immigrants in Europe. The overall objective of this thesis was to investigate tobacco use and risk of TRC in immigrants. The aims were to: explore tobacco use and its determinants in immigrants in France (TOBAMIG pilot study), compare the burden of TRC between immigrants and natives in Denmark, put these results into context with current knowledge, and give guidance on how to set up a study on tobacco use and cancer risk in immigrants in France using the experience from the TOBAMIG pilot study. In the TOBAMIG pilot study information on tobacco use and its determinants was collected from a mixed sample of immigrants, suggesting a large‐scale study was in principle feasible, but modifications from the TOBAMiG approach were to be made. In Denmark, the overall TRC rate in immigrants was lower than that of the natives; however, large differences were observed by cancer‐site and by country of origin, suggesting that among other factors the smoking patterns from the immigrant’s country of origin have a primary role in the burden of TRC. Finally, with regard to a large‐scale study in France, two study designs are proposed, depending on the quantity of information sought, to better understand tobacco use in immigrants and risk of TRC

Full textBreaking with the simplistic link between children of immigrants and academic underachievement, I aim at describing and explaining the diverse academic trajectories of children of immigrants in France and England. As my main analytical framework, I conceive of migration as a discontinuity in the socialization of immigrants and emphasize the resources passed on to children within their families, communities and schools. My empirical sources consist of several large-scale quantitative surveys and nearly a hundred biographical interviews in both countries. I describe the shape of academic hierarchies in France and England, and examine the position of different groups of children of immigrants and natives within them. This empirical analysis shows the great magnitude of academic heterogeneity within the “second generation”. Statistical and qualitative analyses of the pre-migration experiences and social characteristics of immigrant parents, as well as the study of various socialization processes in the destination society, can help explain this academic heterogeneity. Overall, this research lends support to sociological analyses based on immigrants’ social position and related resources to explain the academic trajectories of their children, on the condition that these positions and resources be redefined to take into account the double status of parents as emigrants from their country of origin and immigrants in the society in which their children attend school

Full textThis thesis deals with the topic of reception studies on the one hand and works on the role of the media in the emancipation of minorities on the other hand. Cultural studies which conceive the uses of the media as spaces From a theoretical point of view, I have made a review of the main works on reception, with particular attention given to the notion of decoding and the construction of identity. The empirical approach led me to treat sub Saharan immigrants and their descendants in the Parisian suburbs involved in a transcultural process of self-construction. I notably relied on their life stories to observe their complex relationship with the mass media. In general, the image of the immigrants and their descendants reflected in the media includes a strong negative connotation which is, consequently, harmful to their expression as citizens. Expectations of a better ethnic representativeness are strong, and, lacking an alliance with the media in these expectations, the Internet and the social media seem to constitute today a relevant alternative. The Internet is a more useful tool for them in terms of information, solutions of visibility and is especially an interactivity which makes them active receptors.The story of these existential trajectories calls out to society in general and the media in particular on the necessity of accompanying the construction of identities in an ever-changing world

Full textThis dissertation aims to analyse how local public institutions manage immigrants in Marseilles. It sheds how the presence of individuals in situation of administrative and/or social precariousness represent a practical issue for different public and private actors, in their daily professional activity. It also looks at whether immigrants face (or not) specific regulations at a local scale. The dissertation discusses the role of foreigners' social condition in shaping public action patterns. Field research was conducted from May 2011 to April 2014. It includes interviews, direct observations, as well as public and private archives work. This dissertation looks at local public management of immigrants at different levels. First, it explores whether and how the question of precarious foreigners emerges as an issue for local public action. Then, it focuses on associations devoted to immigrants’ legal and administrative assistance. It emphasises on the work of associative leaders to consolidate and legitimise their activities in different social and professional spaces. The dissertation particularly questions the effect of public action in constructing categories that contribute to shape social perceptions, define situations and control access to resources. It shows how institutional categories result in a partial public management of the precarious immigrants, causing contradictory constraints to the actors involved. This dissertation suggests a reflection about the forms of uncertainty experienced by the professionals who are responsible for compensating some of the effects related to the implementation of restrictive migration policies

Full textThis work concerns the migratory and identical processes of the Korean population installed in France or in Quebec. Its first purpose is to understand the influence of the socio-cultural context on the way that the immigrants adapt themselves and become integrated into the host countries whose models of integration differ. Considering that the language establishes a main element in the process of adaptation as well as in the identical strategies, the linguistic dynamics of the immigrant families was analyzed with a particular attention. 17 Korean families consisted of the father, the mother and their 11-15-year-old child were met in France or in Quebec, through essentially the semi-structured interview and the sociolinguistic questionnaire. The results of our search reveal that the French republican model promotes the linguistic and cultural integration of the Korean immigrants while the Quebec’s intercultural model promotes the socio-professional, civic and community integration. The second-generation immigrants integrate in a spontaneous way the culture and the language of the host country of their parents with the schooling as well as those of the origin into the interfamily context. Our qualitative analyses show that the adaptive and identical processes of the Korean immigrants develop in narrow relation with the socio-cultural context but also with a work of symbolization of the interculturality on the personal and group plan

Full textWhile using the ethnographic method, this thesis proposes to study the migratory projects of a group of Haitians who arrived in France between 1991 and 2011 and living in Saint-Denis, the intra-community Haitian relations in this suburb, and the material and emotional ties that the respondents continue to maintain with their original country beyond a double frustration linked to their professional deskilling and their fear of returning to Haiti. Doubly frustrated, most of the immigrants studied go to haitian protestant churches in order to be able to find an answer to their migratory difficulties. However, disappointing these immigrants, these churches are erected spaces resurgence inter-regional oppositions moun nan Nò / moun nan Sid (people of the North / people of the South) from the country of origin. Other migrants who are also moving towards the Masonic network would make an entirely different experience: the experience of community unification. On the other hand, beyond the eminent contribution of the Masonic network to the unification of immigrants, the inter-regional opposition persists. The fragmentation of communities and the regionalization of the commercial organization of Haitian immigrants in Saint-Denis lead us to argue that they constitute a transnational community, not a diaspora. The experience of emigration has brought down a paradise representation of elsewhere. During their tugging, the Haitians of Saint-Denis decide to take the path of a "re-haitianization" unable to exceed the regional divisions

Full textTerritory of industry and immigration, Saint-Denis is one of the symbolic places of the "banlieue rouge" (red suburbs) of Paris. After 1945, the housing shortage happening in France is worsened in Saint-Denis by the mediocrity of the old housing stock and by a population growth which leads to the spreading of immigrants slums. The communist municipality makes housing construction a central axis of its social policy, therefore becoming one of the greatest HLM (social housing) municipal agencies of the parisian suburbs, managing about 9 000 apartments at the end of the 1970s. Managing such an agency and the induced social mutations pose challenges that can be observed in the local archives. Among those, the question of the housing of foreign or (post)colonial immigrants is taking on increasing importance from the 1960s. Still below 10 % in 1965, the proportion of foreign households housed by the municipal agency amounts to at least a quarter of the tenants in the 1980s. The acknowledgment of their local membership, if not even of their urban citizenship, is at stake and appears to be highly dependant on economic, social and institutionnal constraints which weigh on the managment of a HLM agency in a working class suburb. The logic of a gradual and conditionned municipal hospitality is first of all put in a difficult position by the dissymmetry between supply and demand on social housing. From the end of the 1960s, during significant urban planning operations, the question is seen from the perspective of the immigrant settlement and its repartition in the agglomeration. A logic of "tolerance threshold" to the immigrants which is the origin of discriminations then begins to take place. It is relative since the share of housed immigrants is still progressing. Nevertheless, the important budget crisis which is striking the HLM municipal agency of Saint-Denis from 1974, combined with an advanced desindustrialisation, contributes to a sustaining contortion on the ethno-racial question
