Unan, Elif. "International migration and migrant remittances : the case of Turkish migrants in France." Paris 13, 2011. http://scbd-sto.univ-paris13.fr/secure/ederasme_th_2011_unan.pdf.
Full textThis research focuses on the migrants’ remittances to Turkey. Migration and remittances dynamics of the country and the main determinants of remittances are studied at microeconomic and macroeconomic levels. The main contribution of this thesis is the analysis of two recent surveys carried out in France in order to better understand the remitting behaviour of migrants. Thanks to detailed individual level data, different populations such as first and second generation migrants are analysed separately, as well as different types of transfers such as remittances sent to support households as opposed to collective projects. Although no evidence is found for repayment of loans hypothesis at microeconomic level, altruistic and exchange related motivations can be observed. Collective transfers are more determined by attachment to the home country, intention to return home and being member of a home country association. The results of the macroeconomic level analysis show evidence for both consumption and investment motivations
Castro, Alexandra. "La gouvernance des migrations : de la gestion migratoire à la protection des migrants." Thesis, Paris 2, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA020010/document.
Full textMigrations are a transnational phenomenon that its management has traditionally called attention from the destination states exercising its sovereignty. With the arrival of globalization, the migration perspective has changed. Migrations have an increasingly more important place in the government’s agenda, which has understood that migration management needed the cooperation and the joint action at an international level. The governance of migration involves multiple challenges for the destination countries as well as the countries of origin and for the international community. On one hand, it presents the interest of controlling the arrival of migrants, with a strong influence of security conceptions; on the other hand other ideas have immerged that consider migration as tools for development. Those ideas aim to profit from the effects that are considered as benefits of migration and to stop the negative effects. Finally, we consider the existence of the circumstances that can put in danger migrant’s human rights and for which some measures should be taken. Reconciling the interests surrounding the management of migration is not a simple task. For finding ideal management framework for the governance of migration and the protection of migrant’s human rights, we will explore 5 hypotheses. We will analyze the global administration of migration; the regional administration (in the framework of Latin America); the protection of migrants as vulnerable people having universal rights, as well as the protection from the migrant’s state of origin (in the particular case of Colombia). The assets and the challenges of each one of those discussion environments will be analyzed as well as its contributions to migration’s governance and migrant’s protection

Full textLas personas migrantes y las organizaciones de migrantes son actores cívicos y políticos de creciente interés en los foros de ciencias sociales, así como en entornos gubernamentales y de la sociedad civil. Sin embargo, a nivel académico, todavía supone un desafío teórico y empírico cómo abordar un análisis de las jerarquías de poder en las que están integrados los migrantes. En particular, este es el caso cuando se considera la agencia colectiva migrante desde perspectivas transnacionales. El objetivo de esta tesis es contribuir a estos debates comprendiendo hasta qué punto las organizaciones de un mismo grupo de migrantes tienen diferentes niveles de agencia cuando actúan translocalmente. La tesis muestra que las tendencias a pensar en la agencia (cívica y política) como función del lugar y de las estructuras políticas pueden ignorar otras dimensiones internas que afectan a los colectivos migrantes. Las principales preguntas que aborda esta investigación son: ¿Qué factores institucionales y activos de migrantes sustentan la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes? ¿Cómo cambia la agencia de las asociaciones de migrantes en los procesos transnacionales? La agencia de asociaciones de migrantes se operacionaliza en dos dimensiones: a) presencia: legitimidad y visibilidad de las asociaciones de migrantes; y b) peso: capacidad de influir en la gobernanza de los asuntos cívicos y políticos. La investigación adapta marcos de poder de estudios de desarrollo al análisis de la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes para estudiar las relaciones entre estructura-agencia que les afectan. Por lo tanto, aunque el compromiso transnacional de los migrantes ya ha sido estudiado considerado en estudios sobre política transnacional, esta tesis busca contribuir a la comprensión de la agencia de los migrantes a partir de conceptos de poder y de agencia trabajados en estudios de desarrollo. Sostengo que la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes es consecuencia de los activos de las asociaciones de migrantes y de las instituciones (formales e informales) que afectan a estas asociaciones en los procesos de codesarrollo. Para responder a las preguntas principales, se toman procesos de codesarrollo que vinculan a las asociaciones de migrantes senegaleses y las localidades en Cataluña y Senegal (en Kolda y Dakar). La investigación se centra en este caso extremo para revelar variaciones regionales en el entorno político y diferencias dentro de la comunidad senegalesa, a fin de ver cómo estos factores se relacionan con la agencia de las asociaciones de migrantes. De acuerdo con este diseño, tres argumentos principales guían la investigación. En primer lugar, sostengo que los entornos de políticas afectan la forma en que la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes cambia en las localidades dentro de la misma región y de manera translocal. Diferentes hallazgos apoyan este argumento. En relación a las localidades de residencia, los resultados sugieren que aunque el codesarrollo puede ser una estrategia para superar contextos locales más tendentes a la exclusión con respecto al compromiso cívico migrante, la política no necesariamente lleva a una mayor visibilidad de las asociaciones de migrantes en comparación con los contextos locales que son, en general, más inclusivos. En el contexto del país de origen, se encuentra que, en coherencia con enfoques que muestran los problemas en la penetración del estado senegalés en el nivel local, el transnacionalismo local puede quedar desapercibido al observar dinámicas a nivel regional y municipal. Además, los hallazgos muestran percepciones contrastadas en cuanto a la legitimidad de las asociaciones de migrantes en las localidades de residencia u origen (rural). En general, las asociaciones de migrantes tienen menos presencia en Kolda que en otras localidades a nivel municipal. El segundo argumento es que los activos de las asociaciones de migrantes influyen en su presencia en contextos de origen y residencia. El análisis de activos revela presencia cívica y política de las asociaciones de migrantes en Kolda que permaneció invisible al analizar las instituciones formales a nivel municipal y regional. Los resultados apoyan la importancia de factores como el nivel de educación o el género para el transnacionalismo migrante. Sin embargo, la investigación muestra cómo otras instituciones informales que afectan a las sociedades en Senegal, como los sistemas de lealtad/nobleza, de jefes tradicionales y los sistemas de parentesco, atraviesan activos y, por lo tanto, también afectan la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes. El tercer argumento de la investigación se basa en un análisis de la relación entre los activos y el peso de las asociaciones de migrantes en origen. De acuerdo con los resultados, sostengo que aunque los procesos de codesarrollo llevan a la presencia de asociaciones de migrantes en origen, no siempre estos procesos desafían desigualdades sociales. El marco teórico ayuda a revelar estas dinámicas y abre la posibilidad de analizar la agencia de asociaciones de migrantes en diferentes grupos y contextos. Al proponer una mirada que complementa marcos de análisis sobre la agencia y el empoderamiento, con debates sobre estructura y agencia en los estudios de migración, el marco apunta a mejorar el diálogo entre estos campos de conocimiento.
Migrants and migrant organisations are civic and political actors of increasing interest in social science and policy forums as well as in governmental and civil society settings. Yet, at the academic level, there is still a theoretical and empirical challenge concerning how to tackle an analysis of the power hierarchies in which migrants are embedded. Indeed, this is particularly the case when considering migrant collective agency within transnational perspectives. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to these debates by analysing to what degree organisations from the same migrant groups have different levels of agency when performing translocally. The thesis shows that tendencies to think about (civic and political) agency as a function of place and policy structures tends to disregard other internal dimensions that affect the collectives. The main questions that this research addresses are: Which institutional factors and migrant assets underpin the agency of migrant associations? How does the agency of migrant associations change across transnational processes? The agency of migrant associations is operationalized as having two dimensions: a) presence: the legitimacy and visibility of migrant associations; and b) weight: the capacity to influence the governance of civic and political affairs. The research adapts power frameworks from development studies to the analysis of migrant agency in order to analyse the relations between structure and agency factors affecting migrants. Thus, while migrant transnational engagement has been looked at in studies of transnational politics, this thesis seeks to contribute to our understanding of the agency of migrants by drawing on concepts of power and agency from development studies. I contend that the agency of migrant associations is an outcome of migrant associations’ assets and (formal and informal) institutions affecting these associations in codevelopment processes. To answer these main questions, the research draws upon codevelopment processes linking Senegalese migrant associations and localities in Catalonia and Senegal (in Kolda and Dakar). The research focuses on this extreme case to unpack regional variations in policy environment, and differences within the Senegalese community, in order to see how these factors relate to the agency of migrant associations. In accordance with this design, three main arguments guide the research. First, I argue that policy environments affect how the agency of migrant associations changes across localities within the same region and translocally. Different findings support this argument. Regarding localities in residence, results suggest that even though nurturing codevelopment may be a strategy to overcome more exclusionary local contexts regarding migrant civic engagement, this type of policy approach does not necessarily lead to more visibility of migrant associations. In the context of the country origin, it is found that – consistent with approaches that show awareness of the problems state penetration can have at local levels in Senegal, hometown transnationalism may be 'under the radar' when observing regional and municipal dynamics. Moreover, the findings show contrasting perceptions of the legitimacy of migrant associations in localities of residence or (rural) origin. Overall, migrant associations have less presence in Kolda than in the other localities at the municipal level. The second argument is that the assets of the migrant associations (human, organisational and financial) influence their presence in origin and residence contexts. The analysis of assets uncovers the civic and political presence of migrant associations in Kolda that remained invisible when analysing formal institutions at municipal and regional levels. The findings support the importance of factors such as level of education or gender for migrant transnationalism. However, research shows how the informal institutions affecting societies in Senegal - such as allegiance/nobility systems, chieftaincy and kin systems - traverse assets and consequently affect the agency of migrant associations. The third argument of the research is based on an analysis of the relationship between assets and weight of migrant associations in origin. According to the results, I argue that although codevelopment processes do lead to presence of migrant associations in origin - expressed either through more formal or assets-based mechanisms, at different governance levels including the village - it is rare for them to challenge social inequalities.

Full textThe main objective of this research work that conforms the thesis, is understanding the underlying logics of migrant's communities construction organized by Bolivians in Ushuaia city. The assembling of the chosen case interlaces Argentinean's and Bolivian's migratory histories, Patagonia's history in a particular reference to Argentinean's nation own diversity grammars, and the way that this last was reconfigured in Ushuaia. So we are not only talking about the analysis of a migrant group experience but a reflection upon exclusion and inclusion dynamics produced in the national territory by those who are marked as "foreign" adding racial marks that become difficult their acknowledgement as integrants of a national group with their gender and class specificity. So that, one of this research result is the acknowledgement that the path to understand the logics that construct Bolivian sociability as from Ushuaia migrants practices necessarily must include the following dimensions: the producer contexts of national and local sense that works as an available whole of limits and resources for the social practices, the mobility experiences present in analysed migratory trajectories that re-configure (far from the classical cannon of what is sedentary) relationships with territories and meanings and senses constructed by the migrants. What is local and what is transnational overlap their effects as a comprehension frame for the analysed case. The research defines as a central topic to understand the forms taken by the Bolivian sociability in Ushuaia the strategies to generate their presence respect and legitimacy, but specially, to achieve a Bolivian permanence in the city

Full textA presente dissertação tem como objetivo apresentar argumentação que permita que o debate sobre a categorização jurídica dos refugiados ambientais seja feito a partir da premissa de que é inviável deixar a situação destes seres humanos, tal como está, ou seja, sem a proteção jurídica que lhes é devida. Para tanto, partir-se-á da ideia de cidadania, resultante não somente da sociedade globalizada, mas também cosmopolita e de risco. As dificuldades advindas da determinação do conceito de refugiado ambiental, diz respeito para além do direito internacional humanitário e do direito internacional dos refugiados, aos direitos humanos e traz no seu desenvolvimento a ideia da insuficiência da atual resposta do direito internacional como um todo. Neste sentido, é que foram traçados os raciocínios apresentados neste trabalho, de forma a buscar embasamento sólido para a resposta ao status jurídico dos refugiados ambientais, como nova categoria de refugiados.
This thesis aims to present an argument that alllows the debate on the legal categorization of environmental refugees be done in terms of taking into consideration that it is not feasible to leave their situation without the legal protection due them as it is. To achieve this end, the idea of citizenship will be the the starting idea, as a result not only from the globalized society we live in, but also cosmopolitan and of risk. The difficulties arised from the determination of the concept of environmental refugees is related more to respect for human rights than to international humanitarian law and international refugee law, and brings in its development the idea of the inadequacy of the current response of international law as a whole. Moreover, that reasoning has been traced in order to seek foundation for responding to the legal status of environmental refugees, as a new category of refugees.

Primero, advierte la problemática particular de las víctimas de trata extranjeras, al ser proclive su confusión o superposición con otras categorías, como la de tráfico de migrantes y migrante en condición irregular. Posteriormente, se desarrollan tres argumentos fundamentales que otorgan primacía a su condición de víctima de trata y a su atención especializada desde un enfoque de derechos humanos. Como tercer punto, se brindan directrices sobre los elementos que deben componer este enfoque, a partir de los derechos específicos de víctimas de trata extranjeras. Por último, se analiza el marco normativo e institucional peruano, y sus posibilidades y retos para lograr una atención adecuada a las víctimas de trata extranjera.

Full textThe Haitian Constitution of 1987 published after the departure of Mr. Jean-Claude Duvalier from the presidency of Haiti in its article 15 prohibits multi-membership. To remember that in Haiti citizenship and membership are two interchangeable concepts: the membership confers political rights. The new Constitution reaffirms the principle of citizenship rooted in nationalistic legal and political tradition since the creation of Haitian State born in the early 19th century, a revolt of African slaves, Most surprisingly, the Haitian Constitution of 1987 is largely the work of people who lived throughout the legal dictatorship of Duvalier outside Haiti, Yet they seem to overlook one important societal fact: Haiti became very long time, since the second half of the twentieth century, a country of emigration. Through this article, they exclude much of the Haitian people of his membership, and therefore its citizenship. Expatriates will react to what they see as an injustice, moving the discussion of legal ground to the political arena claiming dual citizenship. In other words, they need to be Haitian otherwise. In this research, including issues that different applicants for dual citizenship are behind the concept of citizenship and places of this event

De acuerdo con estudios previos, en las distintas comunidades de la diáspora china y en sus actividades económicas, habitualmente aparecen manifestaciones de transnacionalismo: los flujos de capital, fuerza de trabajo, información, cruzan constantemente las fronteras de los Estados-nación a escala tanto intra-regional como inter-regional, y este fenómeno no sólo contribuye el crecimiento de la Inversión Extranjera Directa (IED) de China en España sino también a la riqueza económica del Estado español. Particularmente en los últimos dos años, bajo el contexto de la iniciativa Belt and Road (B&R), que es una nueva estrategia de economía exterior de China planeada el año 2013 con el fin de fomentar los intercambios económicos entre China, Asia Central y el continente europeo, los negocios transnacionales de los empresarios chinos en España podrían tener acceso a nuevas oportunidades de desarrollo. Por lo tanto, y a pesar de los trabajos ya realizados, es necesario investigar los negocios transnacionales y la reciente evolución de los empresarios chinos en España para actualizar sus características y determinar el impacto presente y futuro de la iniciativa Belt and Road sobre la economía de los chinos en España y su participación en la economía de ambos países.
As the Asian community with the largest population in Spain, Chinese immigrants are actively involved in the national economy for decades and have a great future economic potential, as one of its most outstanding features is the entrepreneurship of its diverse members increasingly most economic sectors as time passes and increases the volume of its population. According to previous studies, in different communities of the Chinese diaspora and their economic activities, usually they appear manifestations of transnationalism: flows of capital, labor, information, constantly crossing borders of nation-states to scale both intra- -regional as inter-regional, and this phenomenon not only helps the growth of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in China in Spain but also to the economic wealth of the Spanish State. Particularly in the last two years, under the context of the Belt and Road Initiative (B & R), which is a new strategy of foreign trade of China planned by 2013 in order to promote economic exchanges between China, Central Asia and the continent European, transnational business of Chinese entrepreneurs in Spain could have access to new development opportunities. Therefore, despite the work already done, you need to investigate transnational business and the recent evolution of Chinese entrepreneurs in Spain to upgrade its characteristics and determine the present and future impact of the Belt and Road Initiative on economy Chinese in Spain and their participation in the economy of both countries.

Full textThe phenomenon of migration represents an important dimension of the social transformations and it constitutes a complex reality which has many consequences of historical-political, socio-legal and linguistic-cultural nature.The immigrant, often pushed by a condition of severe poverty, loses his points of reference, social recognition, the sense of autonomy assimilated in a lifetime, his own identity. All these factors put immigrant in a condition of extreme weakness. The danger for the immigrant is to be relegated to the margins of society and to be a victim of segregation and marginalization.The insertion and integration process in the new social reality is accompanied, at all levels, by the need to learn the language. This need, in fact, coincides not only with the understanding of the structure and grammatical rules, but it also refers to the need to understand the vision of the world and culture of a linguistic community. The organisation of language training is complex due to different ideologies based on national policies, territorial subdivision of courses, variety of situations and needs of the recipients, or different organization of the training, etc.The integration of immigrants is a matter to be treated with great caution, because it has an immediate impact on the political and economic level and because it directly impacts the social structure of States. The toughest challenge for national Governments is to find a balance between respect and enhancement of culture and the language of origin of the immigrant and the need to learn the culture and language of the host country

Full textThe migration of Soninkes and Toucouleurs' ethnics groups from the Senegal valley region is generally viewed as being under the control of the community benefit. And we try to understand the full the full details of this community control, we can notice a full system or a kind of a "migratory agreement that explains a sort of mutual investment between the migrants themselves and a their originated communities. The notion of mobilization considered an intense mental process to get emancipated from a probable fatal destiny, is put forward to explain this system. The migratory dynamics and migrants' strategies and their families to keep a real contact with people in villages are viewed from different generations' point of view and reveal that the innovations noticed in migration bring about an opposition between traditional hierarchies and new migrants' behaviours. And this rises the issue wether this "migratory system" will last for ever

Full textAmong the children who have failed at school, lots of them are immigrants. As a school psychologist, my observations led me to the hypothesis that the cultural shock, because of the immigration, could give rise for the children to a disorganized traumatism leading to various pathologies. Then the child is brought to built himself in his new culture with more or less happiness. This hypothesis is proved by the detailed study of four cases. A six-year old child from the antilles, nevrotic, refusing to leran to read in relation to the maternal thaumaturgy ; an egyptian child, six years old, suffering from castration anguish, a thrity-year old french woman whose son had aftermath from a cerebral traumatism, showing suicidal tendencies after a succession of viols ; an african chil struck down by mutism becazuse of the difference of his culture. The study of these cases takes into account the cultural importance of the traumatism. The ethnopsychiatric approach of the psychological consultation as it was conceived by g. Devereux and t. Nathan was proved to be efficient in the recovery of these cases. This methodology brings precision in the psychological treatment of these children at risk and in the same way avoiding them the way of the inadapted childhood

Full textThe research paper focuses on academic achievement among first-generation migrants' children. The major question addressed in the present research pertains to what may differenciate successful children from those fail in school, given that the former have also experienced migration, live in the same neighborhoods and come from families of comparable socio-economic level. Areview of the literature on the subject of academic achievement reveals that most studies address cultural, sociological or socio-economic aspects. The clinical observation of successful subjects sheds new light on the matter and opens the way to an approach which may contribute to the comprehension of the academic failure of their peers. A first study is concerning 14 Moroccan girls, aged 8 to 13 and schooled in class to initiation to the French language. Interviews with the subjects' mothers and their teachers as well as t. A. T. Results led to establishing a connection between the stress of acculturation and academic achievement. Once hypothesized, the connection was tested in a second study on a population of 40 girls aged 9 to 13 born in 15 different countries. Depression and coping strategy preferences were evaluated through the CES-D and the A-COPE. Study findings indicate that successful girls (9/40) are not depressed and distinguish themselves from other subjects in their coping strategy preferences. Among problem coping strategy options, successfull girls were the only subjects to utilise "academic activities". Successfull girls also used more stressor distancing and fantasy transformation strategies than other subjects

Full textThis project document accompanies the ethnographic film, ‘Saliendo Adelante.’ The Spanish phrase ‘saliendo adelante' translates into ‘moving forward’. While the term is a familiar mantra for Latino immigrants, the media converts the undocumented immigrant into an illegal alien, and thereby providing the foundation to what Anthropologist Leo Chavez calls the ‘Latino threat narrative.’ This narrative insinuates that Latinos’s are an invading force that is unwilling or incapable of assimilating to so-called mainstream America. This ethnographic film provides a counter-narrative while illustrating a transnational narrative, key to the decision making process immigrants use in the universal pursuit of a better life. The film, shot using participatory, and observational techniques features, Marina, a mother coming to terms with her transnational existence, and Rudy, an aspiring hip-hop artist determined to find economic success. This paper provides background to some of the particular experiences of undocumented immigrants.
