Abstract:
The article critically examines the migration process and the manner in which it affects the livelihood of migrants. Based on a survey in Udupi district of Karnataka, it identifies the status of migrant labourers in the construction sector. It presents evidence on labour market segmentation and the resulting unequal wage distribution between migrants in this segment. Migrants, at their destination, have poor living and working conditions, lack entitlements, have low level of consumption and endure hardship. Migrant households reported higher expenditure on food and non-food consumption and temporary residential housing. Children of migrants have limited access to education in the destination place. The article maps informal practices that violate the legal provisions for these work segments.

Abstract:
About 5 million Ukrainians, forced to flee from the aggression of the Russian Federation, enjoy temporary protection in European countries. The legal basis for its provision is the Directive adopted by the EU in 2001 based on the experience gained as a result of the mass arrival of war refugees from the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. Therefore, when studying the prospects of staying abroad and the return of forced migrants as an important component of the post-war recovery of Ukraine, despite the awareness of the vagueness of any historical analogies, it is useful to analyze what happened to war refugees from Yugoslavia after the end of active hostilities in the Balkans, which is the purpose of this article. To achieve it, historical and comparative methods are used, as well as other methods of scientific research. Despite the large volume of literature devoted to forced displacement in Yugoslavia, active analytical and research work on the study of the situation of Ukrainian displaced persons abroad, comparative approach to the analysis of these two phenomena was not applied, which determines the novelty of this work. As a result, it provides grounds for several important conclusions. Firstly, the protection enjoyed by Ukrainians in Europe is temporary and its cancellation or expiration can be sudden and unexpected for refugees. This can lead to an unprepared return or the risk of being abroad in an irregular legal situation. Secondly, after the termination of temporary protection, the situation of Ukrainians in different states may differ radically depending on whether the host country is interested in granting displaced persons the status of permanent residents or not. Thirdly, when deciding the future fate of war refugees, the host country will, of course, take into account humanitarian considerations, but most likely will use a pragmatic selective approach, i.e. will grant the status of permanent resident primarily to those refugees who have successfully integrated, are not a burden, but, on the contrary, an additional resource for the development. Thus, the policy of host countries, as well as the situation in Ukraine and the personal circumstances of particular individuals, will be an important factor in the post-war repatriation of forced migrants, its intensity and timing. In this regard, the foreign policy component of the state’s migration policy, the discussion and joint development with foreign states of measures to promote the return and reintegration of displaced persons, should be significantly intensified.

Abstract:
Migration literature tends to speak of temporary migration as economic migration and therefore the experience of migration is centred on the economy. In South Africa, this economic experience includes violence and crime especially after the 2008 xenophobic attacks. Yet migrants have established and forged relations in South Africa that transcend pure economic relationships. In this paper, I argue that the lived experience of Bangladeshi migrants produce a far more complex picture of migration. While the economy may have been the primary reason these men migrated, they are neither poor nor destitute. Further, this paper looks at how the spaces of the home, work and the social are negotiated in the daily lived experience of Bangladeshi migrants in South Africa. It looks at spaces like Fordsburg Johannesburg where the men socialise and find a sense of community among their countrymen, as well how marriage and social mobility.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to critically analyze the discourses on migrant acculturation and migrants’ mobile phone communication, in order to examine the inclusiveness of communication-acculturation research in the recent years. Design/methodology/approach – The paper draws on from 102 qualitative interviews (48 Malayali, 26 Bangla, 17 Tamil and 11 Telugu) for a larger research project that investigated the role of mobile phones in migrant acculturation in Singapore. Respondents were selected using a combination of purposive and snowball sampling methods. The respondents had been in Singapore for varying amount of time: from one month to 19 years. Findings – The analysis of the discourses on migrant acculturation and mobile phone communication revealed that labor migrants were excluded on the basis of their temporary status and apprehensions on work productivity. The mobile usage prohibitions that existed in work sites were hinged on similar discourses that stereotyped the labor migrants. The emancipatory metaphor that has been at the center of research on migrants’ mobile phone usage and acculturation needs to be replaced with a critical discourse perspective. Research limitations/implications – The data were originally collected for a research project that approached the phenomena of acculturation and mobile phone appropriation from a positivist perspective, whereas this paper analyzed the data to critically examine the discourses that supported the premise of the project itself. Due to this, the findings presented in this paper have limited scope for generalization. Originality/value – The paper critiques the research trends in migrant acculturation and mobile phone communication and suggests a possible alternative that goes beyond the “transcendental teleology” that underpins discourse and practice.

Abstract:
Since the beginning of the 21st century, Romanian migrants have become one of the most significant national groups doing agricultural work in Spain, initially coming via a temporary migration program and later under several different modalities. However, despite their critical importance for the functioning of Europe’s largest agro-industry, the study of this long-term circular mobility is still underdeveloped in migration and agriculture literature. Thanks to extensive fieldwork carried out in the provinces of Huelva and Lleida in Spain and in the counties of Teleorman and Buzău in Romania, this paper has two main objectives: first, to identify some of the most common forms of mobility of these migrants; and second, to discuss whether this industrial agriculture, hugely dependent on migrant work, is socially sustainable. The case of Romanian migrants in Spanish agriculture will serve to show how a critical sector for the EU and for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations, operates on an unsustainable model based on precariousness and exploitation.

Abstract:
Singapore is host to approximately 1.7 million transient migrants who either work or study in the city-state. While there has been extensive research on the conditions of low skilled or unskilled workers, little has been written about the experiences of the educated and middle class transnationally mobile workers and students and how they make a home for themselves in the city-state. Through in-depth interviews with 86 international students and educated transnationally mobile workers on their self-perceived identities, social networks, concepts of home, and media and communication use, this article looks at the strategies used by ‘foreign talent’ migrants to feel at home in Singapore. It is observed that while foreign talent migrants develop a combination of creative strategies in order to make Singapore ‘a home away from home’, being transient negatively affects their relationship with Singaporeans. The study also finds that while transient migrants develop close relationships with co-nationals as a strategy for transience, they also maintain/develop class structures while overseas. In other words, international students and white collar workers do not associate with co-nationals who are in low skilled or unskilled work. Drawing on the concept that transient migrants use their self-perceived identities to negotiate everyday life, this article argues that foreign talent migrants use their self-perceived identities to create emerging social and cultural spaces through their versions of reconstructions of home and by their (non)interactions with co-nationals and Singaporeans. In doing so, this article specifically moves away from the literature on time and temporalities which situates the temporary migrant as facing challenges overseas due to the break in their expected life course and connections to home, highlighting instead that transient migrants see their temporality not as a disruption bur rather part of their evolving life course.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the role of immigration and labor immigration in the demographic and socio-economic development of Russia in the post-Soviet period. Two main migration flows (immigration for permanent residence and labor immigration) to the country are analyzed on the basis of both absolute numbers and socio-demographic structure. The four most common myths regarding the negative impact of labor migration on the socio-economic situation in Russia are considered in detail: immigration hampers technological re-equipment and the renewal of the Russian economy; immigrants squeeze national labor from the Russian labor market; immigrants contribute to the dumping of wages on the Russian labor market; immigrants are to blame for raising the retirement age in Russia. The author’s counterarguments on each of these myths are cited. A distinctive feature of labor migration to Russia is the clearly expressed labor motivation of migrants. For the most part, migrant workers are people from the countries of the former USSR (primarily citizens of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan) who are willing to work actively, many speak Russian, are oriented towards Russia, want and are ready to register honestly, get permits documents and pay taxes. Many migrants have quite successfully adapted to the Russian labor market, some receive a temporary residence permit and a permanent residence permit, and many become citizens of Russia. This is partly evidence of their successful integration into Russian society. Given the demographic situation in which modern Russia is located, labor migration could not only replenish the cohort of labor resources on a temporary basis, but also increase the population of the country on a permanent basis. At the same time, the sociocultural consequences of labor migration for local societies and Russian society as a whole require additional study. In this regard, Russia needs to develop the infrastructure for the adaptation and integration of migrants into Russian society - to ensure access to learning Russian, medical services, education of children and migrants.

This article examines the experiences of non-EU/EEA student-migrants orienting in precarious labour markets in Finland. Drawing on data from in-depth interviews with working student-migrants holding a temporary legal status, the article examines the incidence of unpaid work within a variety of contractual settings and sectors. The findings suggest that exploitation with regard to the subjective capacity to produce is facilitated through the imposition of unpaid work hours on legally constrained migrants in precarious employment. The findings contribute to the sociological analysis of the increasingly fragmented figures of labour as well as to the study of unpaid work as a driver of precarisation.

Abstract:
Despite the organic movement’s early connections to labour advocacy and commitment to the principle of “Fairness”, the evolution of the organic sector has generated questions about the strength of its links to food justice in certified organic farming. Scholar-activists have, in particular, highlighted the problematic nature of labour relations on many organic farms. This article reports on a growing relationship between an organic farming association (the Certified Organic Associations of British Columbia) and a migrant workers justice collective (Fuerza Migrante) with aspirations of alliance building. Drawing from qualitative interviews and participant observation, we examine the extent to which efforts by the organic community towards fairness in labour relations may signal an opening whereby the organic movement may take up the more radical struggle for rights, status and justice for racialized migrant workers. We draw on theoretical work on post-capitalist relations and emancipatory social transformations to provide scaffolding to our assessment, and illuminate the importance of complementary efforts. While the primary demands raised by migrant workers and their allies (e.g. structural changes to temporary foreign worker programs) are not yet mirrored by the organic community’s advocacy, this paper documents preliminary efforts towards centering of migrant worker struggles for justice that may open up spaces for social emancipation for workers in organic farming systems. We also provide recommendations for how the organic community could act in solidarity with migrants and advance migrant justice priorities. En sus inicios, el movimiento orgánico estaba fuertemente vinculado con la defensa de los derechos de los trabajadores y comprometido con el principio de “justicia”. Con el paso del tiempo, la evolución del sector orgánico ha generado cuestionamientos sobre la fuerza de estos vínculos y su relación con la justicia alimentaria en la agricultura orgánica certificada. Académicos-activistas, en particular, han destacado la intrínseca problemática de muchas granjas orgánicas. El presente artículo reporta la creciente relación y aspiración de construir alianzas entre una asociación de agricultura orgánica (Organic BC) y un colectivo de justicia para trabajadores migrantes (Fuerza Migrante). Examinamos hasta qué punto los esfuerzos por parte de la comunidad orgánica hacia la justicia en relaciones laborales puede representar una oportunidad para el movimiento orgánico de asumir una postura más radical por los derechos, estatus y la justicia de los trabajadores migrantes racializados. El análisis se basa en el trabajo teórico sobre relaciones post-capitalistas y las transformaciones sociales emancipatorias que iluminan la importancia de los esfuerzos complementarios. Si bien las principales demandas planteadas por los trabajadores migrantes y sus aliados (por ejemplo, cambios estructurales en los programas de trabajadores extranjeros temporales) aún no se reflejan en la lucha de la comunidad orgánica, vemos esfuerzos preliminares enfocados en la lucha de los trabajadores migrantes por la justicia, los cuales pueden abrir espacios para la emancipación social en sistemas de agricultura orgánica. Concluimos con recomendaciones sobre cómo la comunidad orgánica en Canadá podría actuar en solidaridad con los migrantes y promover prioridades de justicia para migrantes.

Abstract:
A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the perceived health effects of temporary overseas migration on rural Thai men and to evaluate the effects of financial gain on their social interactions with others. Houses in five villages in Khonkaen, northeastern Thailand were systematically visited and one returned overseas migrant per household was interviewed. One hundred and sixty one men participated in the study. Half of the respondents (50%) were manual workers. While overseas, 32% reported adverse effects of migration on their psychological health. Only 19% reported one or more physically ill while overseas. Their contribution to their communities increased. Inability to improve their financial status from overseas work is likely to have negative effects on the migrants' interaction with friends rather than their wives, families or relatives. The effects of migration on health are unlikely to persist after migrants return to their home communities. Overseas migration provides indirect health benefits through improvement of community facilities. Asia Pac J Public Health 2000;12(1): 4-11

Este trabalho propõe analisar o fenômeno da terceirização desenvolvido ao longo das duas últimas décadas em Bio-Manguinhos. Trata-se de um estudo de caso realizado na unidade de produção de vacinas e reagentes para diagnóstico da Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Inicialmente foi realizado um estudo de cenário, analisando a política de gestão do trabalho desenvolvida pelo Estado brasileiro para as instituições públicas. A seguir, a análise passou a verificar a inserção da Fiocruz nessas políticas, desde a sua criação e no decorrer de vigência de diferentes formas de contratação, alternando da extrema rigidez para a total flexibilidade sempre com foco na gestão do trabalho, e, como essas políticas se refletiram no desempenho de Bio-Manguinhos. Baseado no contexto da conformação do Estado e na análise do desempenho da unidade, o trabalho critica a falta de planejamento e de prospecção dessas políticas, que favoreça a inovação de processos, produtos e procedimentos e o desempenho pleno de uma unidade de produção de insumos para a saúde, tão necessários ao atendimento das necessidades da população brasileira. Critica também, a ausência de um modelo de Estado consolidado que sirva de arcabouço à formulação dessas políticas. Devido às fortes críticas dos órgãos de controle acerca da extrapolação dos limites da terceirização praticada nas últimas duas décadas e à falta de definição clara desses marcos legais, o trabalho apresenta uma metodologia baseada nas atribuições dos cargos do plano de carreiras da Fiocruz e culmina com a apresentação de uma matriz de atribuições passíveis de serem realizadas por contratação indireta. Conclui pela necessidade de convivência de dois quadros de trabalhadores: um permanente formado por servidores, estáveis e de carreira e outro flexível, executado por contratação indireta, de caráter eventual, temporário ou de apoio às atividades relacionadas à missão de Bio-Manguinhos. O trabalho ainda sugere a aplicação da mesma metodologia às demais unidades da Fiocruz e que a instituição afirme, frente aos órgãos de controle, quais atividades que ela precisa manter no quadro de servidores permanente e quais ela quer delegar a terceiros sem contudo, ferir a legislação vigente. Por fim, constata-se que a metodologia apresentada ameniza, mas não resolve o problema, dessa forma, recomenda-se à Fiocruz buscar mecanismos que altere o modelo de gestão pelo qual está submetida a fim de viabilizar as duas formas de incorporação de mão-de-obra.

Abstract:
This book highlights obstacles confronting temporary migrant workers in Canada seeking to exercise their labor rights. It explores the effects of deportability on Mexican nationals participating in Canada's Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP). The book follows the decade-long legal and political struggle of a group of Mexican SAWP migrants in British Columbia to establish and maintain meaningful collective representation. The case study reveals how modalities of deportability—such as termination without cause, blacklisting, and attrition—destabilize legally authorized temporary migrant agricultural workers. Through this detailed exposé, the book concludes that despite the formal commitments to human, social, and civil rights to which migration management ostensibly aspires, the design and administration of this “model” temporary migrant work program produces conditions of deportability, making the threat possibility of removal ever-present.

Abstract:
Abstract International migration is at an all-time high as ever more people move across national borders for work or study, in search of refuge or adventure. Regardless of their motivations and whether they intend their moves to be temporary or permanent, all transnational migrants face the challenge of re-building their lives in a different cultural and linguistic context, far away from family and friends, and the everyday routines of their previous lives. Established populations in destination countries may treat migrants with benign neglect at best and outright hostility at worst. How then do migrants make a new life? To answer that question, this book examines the language learning and settlement experiences of 130 migrants to Australia from 34 different countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America over a period of 20 years. Reusing data from six separate sociolinguistic ethnographies, the book illuminates participants’ lived experience of learning and communicating in a new language, finding work, and doing family. Additionally, participants’ experiences with racism and identity-making in a new context are explored. The research uncovers not only significant hardship, but also migrants’ courage and resilience. The book has implications for language service provision, migration policy, and social justice movements.

Abstract:
Work and Community Among West African Migrant Workers since the Nineteenth Century uncovers a fascinating chapter of British and West African social history by re-telling the forgotten history of the Kru, a group of West African labourers and seafarers who formed a significant component of British colonial trade. The study traces the Kru’s migrational flight from their original home in Liberia to Sierra Leone, and finally to the port of Liverpool, and addresses their position as ‘twice migrants’. Drawing extensively on oral accounts given by the Kru themselves in both Liverpool and West Africa, Frost examines the group’s presence in the British colony of Sierra Leone, and emphasises their contributions to British Colonial trade with West Africa. The book also studies the presence of the black and African community in Britain, and explores their presence in British mercantile trade before the mass migrations of New-Commonwealth immigrants in the post-war period. Work and Community Among West African Migrant Workers since the Nineteenth Century provides a rich and fascinating account of the Kru experience in both the pre- and post-war periods, and demonstrates that the Kru are a group that have remained largely absent from histories of the black presence in Britain.

Abstract:
The study is funded by Doha International Family Institute (DIFI), a member of Qatar Foundation, and is a collaboration between the Muslim Resource Centre for Social Support and Integration of London, Ontario; University of Guelph, Ontario; and University of Calgary, Alberta, all located in Canada; and the Doha International Family Institute, Qatar. The study received research ethics approval from the University of Guelph and the University of Calgary. This study aims to assess the impact of pre- and post-migration on marital relationships and family dynamics for Arab refugee families resettled in Canada. The study also examines the role of professional service providers in supporting these Arab refugee families. The unique experiences of Arab families displaced from their countries due to war and political conflict, and the various hardships experienced during their stay in transit countries, impact their family relations and interactions within the nuclear family context and their interconnectedness with their extended families. Furthermore, these families encounter various challenges within their resettlement process that interrupt their integration. Understanding the impact of traumatic experiences within the pre-migration journey as well as the impact of post-migration stressors on recently settled Arab refugee families in Canada provides insight into the shift in spousal and family relationships. Refugee research studies that focus on the impact of pre-migration trauma and displacement, the migration journey, and post-migration settlement on family relationships are scarce. Since the majority of global refugees in recent years come from Arab regions, mainly Syria, as a result of armed conflicts, this study is focused on the unique experiences of Arab refugee families fleeing conflict zones. The Canadian role in recently resettling a large influx of Arab refugees and assisting them to successfully integrate has not been without challenges. Traumatic pre-migration experiences as a result of being subjected to and/or witnessing violence, separation from and loss of family members, and loss of property and social status coupled with experiences of hardships in transit countries have a profound impact on families and their integration. Refugees are subjected to individual and collective traumatic experiences associated with cultural or ethnic disconnection, mental health struggles, and discrimination and racism. These experiences have been shown to impact family interactions. Arab refugee families have different definitions of “family” and “home” from Eurocentric conceptualizations which are grounded in individualistic worldviews. The discrepancy between collectivism and individualism is mainly recognized by collectivist newcomers as challenges in the areas of gender norms, expectations regarding parenting and the physical discipline of children, and diverse aspects of the family’s daily life. For this study, we interviewed 30 adults, all Arab refugees (14 Syrian and 16 Iraqi – 17 males, 13 females) residing in London, Ontario, Canada for a period of time ranging from six months to seven years. The study participants were married couples with and without children. During the semi-structured interviews, the participants were asked to reflect on their family life during pre-migration – in the country of origin before and during the war and in the transit country – and post-migration in Canada. The inter - views were conducted in Arabic, audio-recorded, and transcribed. We also conducted one focus group with seven service providers from diverse sectors in London, Ontario who work with Arab refugee families. The study used the underlying principles of constructivist grounded theory methodology to guide interviewing and a thematic analysis was performed. MAXQDA software was used to facilitate coding and the identification of key themes within the transcribed interviews. We also conducted a thematic analysis of the focus group transcription. The thematic analysis of the individual interviews identified four key themes: • Gender role changes influence spousal relationships; • Traumatic experiences bring suffering and resilience to family well-being; • Levels of marital conflict are higher following post-migration settlement; • Post-migration experiences challenge family values. The outcome of the thematic analysis of the service provider focus group identified three key themes: • The complex needs of newly arrived Arab refugee families; • Gaps in the services available to Arab refugee families; • Key aspects of training for cultural competencies. The key themes from the individual interviews demonstrate: (i) the dramatic sociocul - tural changes associated with migration that particularly emphasize different gender norms; (ii) the impact of trauma and the refugee experience itself on family relation - ships and personal well-being; (iii) the unique and complex aspects of the family journey; and (iv) how valued aspects of cultural and religious values and traditions are linked in complex ways for these Arab refugee families. These outcomes are consist - ent with previous studies. The study finds that women were strongly involved in supporting their spouses in every aspect of family life and tried to maintain their spouses’ tolerance towards stressors. The struggles of husbands to fulfill their roles as the providers and protec - tors throughout the migratory journey were evident. Some parents experienced role shifts that they understood to be due to the unstable conditions in which they were living but these changes were considered to be temporary. Despite the diversity of refugee family experiences, they shared some commonalities in how they experi - enced changes that were frightening for families, as well as some that enhanced safety and stability. These latter changes related to safety were welcomed by these fami - lies. Some of these families reported that they sought professional help, while others dealt with changes by becoming more distant in their marital relationship. The risk of violence increased as the result of trauma, integration stressors, and escalation in marital issues. These outcomes illustrate the importance of taking into consideration the complexity of the integration process in light of post-trauma and post-migration changes and the timespan each family needs to adjust and integrate. Moreover, these families expressed hope for a better future for their children and stated that they were willing to accept change for the sake of their children as well. At the same time, these parents voiced the significance of preserving their cultural and religious values and beliefs. The service providers identified gaps in service provision to refugee families in some key areas. These included the unpreparedness of professionals and insufficiency of the resources available for newcomer families from all levels of government. This was particularly relevant in the context of meeting the needs of the large influx of Syrian refugees who were resettled in Canada within the period of November 2015 to January 2017. Furthermore, language skills and addressing trauma needs were found to require more than one year to address. The service providers identified that a longer time span of government assistance for these families was necessary. In terms of training, the service providers pinpointed the value of learning more about culturally appropriate interventions and receiving professional development to enhance their work with refugee families. In light of these findings, we recommend an increased use of culturally integrative interventions and programs to provide both formal and informal support for families within their communities. Furthermore, future research that examines the impact of culturally-based training, cultural brokers, and various culturally integrative practices will contribute to understanding best practices. These findings with regard to refugee family relationships and experiences are exploratory in their nature and support future research that extends understanding in the area of spousal relationships, inter - generational stressors during adolescence, and parenting/gender role changes.

Abstract:
This chapter centres on the graphic novel series Demain, demain (2012-2019) by Laurent Maffre that narrates the journey of an Algerian family living in a shantytown at the outskirts of Paris as well as their subsequent relocation to a temporary housing unit. Written and designed in conjunction with archival research and collaborations with scholars, activists, and former shantytown inhabitants, Demain, demain provides a reflection on the broad spatial effects of migration. In order to interrogate the ways in which space is narrated and anchored by Maffre's graphic novel, the chapter first contextualizes the work within the tradition of French shantytowns narratives. The subsequent analyses concentrate on the narration of domestic place both as subjective and material representations that challenge official narratives of migration in France. This, in turn, will provide critical insights into the contributions that the graphic novel brings to the study of France as a dynamic space marked by past and ongoing migrations affecting society as a whole-a component central to the concept of postmigration.

Abstract:
In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 an epidemic, causing a public health emergency of international concern. Despite the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, the migration of seasonal agricultural workers was exceptionally allowed in Turkey, as the labor force of seasonal agricultural workers is a crucial factor in the Turkish agricultural economy. Since seasonal workers are employed as temporary irregular workers, they obtain information from brokers (Çavuşlar) about farms that require workers. They worked on farms for five to six months while migrating according to the information. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has become a very threatening obstacle to those who live a migrant life. Nevertheless, they are forced to continue migrating agricultural labor due to their economic situation. In Turkey, 90% of seasonal agricultural workers live in the Southeastern Anatolia region, where they make a living from seasonal agricultural work without having other jobs. In particular, Şanlıurfa Province has the highest proportion of seasonal workers, even in the Southeastern Anatolia region. Therefore, Şanlıurfa Province, where we interviewed workers engaged in seasonal agricultural labor, was selected as the survey area. The interviews were conducted with seasonal workers from four households (total of 33 people) engaged in seasonal work during the period from May to October 2020. We utilized semi-structured, face-to-face in-depth interviews and telephone interviews with workers as the data collection methods. In this study, since the investigator who interviewed seasonal workers was a worker engaged in seasonal agricultural labor, in-depth interviews with seasonal workers were possible despite the COVID-19 pandemic. This study investigated the geographical mobility routes of migrants during that time. In addition, we examined how their living and working conditions changed and were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and what efforts were needed to improve their conditions. As a result of these studies, the emergence of COVID-19 has worsened working and living conditions, and it has been shown that it is urgent to prepare countermeasures against infectious diseases for vulnerable people.

Abstract:
The increasing population and urbanization in peri-urban Ghana have affected migrant farmers' land resource and livelihoods. The high demand of land for residential and developmental purposes has resulted in re-possession of farmlands in peri urban areas by land owners, at the expense of migrant farmers. This study analyses the extent of vulnerability challenges that affect migrant farmers as a result of land repossession, and alternative strategies employed to curb the challenge. A mixed method approach research was conducted in three communities: Oda, Asene, and Aboabo. The study adapted the sustainable livelihood approach in analyzing vulnerability challenges, and livelihood strategies. The study findings revealed that migrant farmers become economically and socially vulnerable temporarily because of land re-possession, but consequently, devise alternative livelihood strategies to ameliorate the problems. The study recommends that migrant farmers should have their farmlands registered to cover all contractual agreements with landowners to secure land for farming activities.

Abstract:
This concluding chapter reflects on the significance of the legal case of the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) employeess at Sidhu & Sons for expanding understandings of the meaning of deportability and its applicability to temporary migrant work program (TMWP) participants laboring not only in Canada but also in other relatively high-income host states embracing migration management and the measures it prescribes. Obstacles to limiting deportability writ large will persist so long as migration management dominates paradigmatically. Nevertheless, in combination with the forward-looking organizing efforts already being undertaken by unions and worker centers, in areas where unionization is difficult to achieve partly because of the still-dominant Wagnerian-styled model of unionization, certain modest interventions in policy and practice hold promise in forging change and curbing deportability among temporary migrant workers. Because the foregoing case study focused on the SAWP, the alternatives outlined in this chapter primarily address this TMWP. Given, however, that the SAWP is often touted as a model of migration management, they seek to provide meaningful avenues toward incremental change in other TMWPs in Canada and elsewhere.

Abstract:
Migration is a key component of evolutionary growth and has a long history in forming human society. People constantly move inside and between particular geographic locations. "Migration" refers to a person's temporary or permanent relocation from one place to another. It is derived from the Latin word "Migrate," which implies moving one's domicile. Unemployment is a major worry in both economic theory and policy formulation despite economies facing various internal and external challenges. Most people look for work to have a steady income, which improves their quality of life. If a person can't find work where they are, they may decide to relocate to a place with more jobs available. We call this "labour migration." Migration is a shift over a certain time from one place to another that frequently crosses administrative boundaries and entails a change in residence. People are driven to relocate from locations with fewer employment prospects to those where jobs are more readily available by the gap in development levels between various economies or regions within the same economy. Migrating within the same country is called internal migration, but migrating abroad is referred to as external migration or emigration. Finding work is one of the main reasons labourers move. Wage disparities can still be a factor in migration, as workers may move from locations with lower pay to those with higher incomes, even when employment prospects are identical in two places.

Abstract:
In response to global initiatives, Indonesia has increased efforts to register all children at birth. Birth registration has a core goal to transform the act of childbirth into a legal statement about the obligations and entitlements of belonging to a nation-state. Drawing upon a multi-method exploratory study conducted in 2014 in four low-income, high out-migration Sasak communities in East Lombok, this chapter discusses childbirth and birth registration practices in families where the mother or father leave the island for extended periods of low-skill, temporary work. Migration, Sasak pregnancy practices, state childbirth management, and the meaning of documents become bound up with procedures by which the state seeks to align kin and other local relatedness in conformity with membership in the state. Despite the institutionalization of midwives as agents of birth registration, the limited success of state efforts to register children is evident in the ways that migrant families navigate, circumvent, ignore, and selectively exploit the official system, thereby supporting their priorities around work and family. The implications of these patterns for Indonesian birth registration goals are noted.

Tracing three intertwined themes that animate the book—postsocialism, transnational mobility, and intimacy—the chapter highlights gendered aspiration for mobility and intimate practices like emotional labor forged within forces of global capitalism. The chapter also critically discusses global concerns with trafficking in women, showing how post-Soviet women migrants’ accounts complicate assumptions of oppression. The chapter also presents the context and methods of the research, with an analysis of “mobile” methods and field work with an infant along.

Abstract This chapter reviews religious involvement in UK child migration programs—particularly in the post-war period—with particular attention to how this work harmed children in their care. The UK child migration programs can also be understood as part of wider nation-building projects in Commonwealth countries that also included native assimilationist policies, including the removal of children from Indigenous communities in Australia and Canada. It is helpful to reflect on what this case study suggests about how religion and migration can intersect in ways that can harm vulnerable people. Such harm can arise not only through the ideas, assumptions, and practices of individual religious actors or organizations, but as a consequence of wider organizational and policy contexts as well. In a number of important respects, British child migrants were harmed because of an over-complex and fragmented system of governance, in which children were insufficiently protected from the competing interests of government departments and voluntary societies. The chapter then illustrates how the internal cultures of religious organizations also contribute to these harms. For those religious organizations involved in the UK child migration programs, their work was always underpinned with a sense of spiritual and moral legitimacy that proved resistant to critiques made of it at the time.

Abstract:
An increase in a number of migrants intensifies the need for professional psychological support and counseling for the latter in order to facilitate their social-psychological adaptation. In order to organise the psychotherapeutic process effectively and provide quality services, it is necessary to pay special attention to clients’ expectations and perceptions of psychological help. Unfortunately, this issue is currently underrepresented in domestic psychological research. The success of the psychologist’s work largely depends on a clear understanding of the ethnicity, the uniqueness of each ethnic group and the appropriately chosen methods. This paper presents the results of a survey of counselling psychologists with experience of working with migrants from post Soviet countries as well as the results of a comparative analysis of the perceptions of the psychologist’s work with representatives of the dominant ethnic group and migrants. The study objective: explore perceptions of the work of a counselling psychologist among migrants and members of the dominant ethnic group. Respondents’ answers were processed using expert assessments. The study was participated by three groups: 20 psychologists (of the dominant ethnic group); 20 migrants, and 20 citizens of the Russian Federation without psychological education. The dominant attitude in the minds of many respondents is that psychotherapy is useless, ‘a person should cope on their own, telling a psychologist about their problems is a sign of weakness’. At the same time, most of the interviewees note that they (their families) have psychological problems, however, they are not prepared to work on solving them. It is worth highlighting the particular importance of psychological education and public enlightenment in order to develop a more adequate image of the psychologist and a clear understanding of the specifics of psychological counselling.

Abstract:
Abstract Temporary plugging technology are widely used in unconventional exploitation, for it can produce more fracture thus to enhance oil recovery, however, it is still unclear how the plugging is formed and the diverters migrate in the hydraulic fracture. In this work, a self-developed visualization fracture system is set up. And the plugging mechanism of guar-based fracturing fluid with temporary plugging materials is visualized in a rough laboratory-scale fracture. Impacts of parameters on plugging process like particle concentration,fibre concentration, and fracture width are systematically investigated.Through a series of comparative experiments, it is found that the plugging process was triggered by fibre, they form nets to capture particles, then the nets with particles roll bigger and bigger like snowballs,while the nets can not capture particles will be broken in higher pressure. Comparative results indicate that the sealing effect of the same forum for wider fracture will be worse, replacing with the larger particles is more effective than increasing the amount of diverter; Increasing particles can increase sealing strength while increaing fibres can shorten the sealing formation time; Using 1% fiber only, the 3mm-wide fracture can be plugged but it cost much time and the sealing is not so firm. While using 1% particles only, a particle dump forms instead of a sealing layer. For field operation, it is suggested that (1) For wider fracture, use bigger particle is more effective than add more fibre and particles; (2) Particle should be added later than fibre; (3) To increase sealing pressure and enhance efficiency, the ratio of fibre and particles should be around 2:1.

Abstract:
Modern citizenship embodies a triad of dimensions: a legal status granting rights, a principle underpinning democratic self-governance, and a conception of collective identity and membership [Joppke 2010]. This nuancedconcept of citizenship was partially introduced to the successor states following the dissolution of the Habsburg Monarchy. In the 19th century, the right of domicile (Heimatrecht) exhibited certain characteristics akin to modern citizenship but also served as a “technology” [Cruikshank 1999] for the practical management of mobility, encompassing both impoverished individuals and migrant workers. Political debates and policies regarding mobile populations during this period were pulled in two conflicting directions. On one side, there was a drive to control and secure the movement of these “dangerous” population groups. On the other, there was a need to meet labor demands, which necessitated greater freedoms [cf. Foucault 2007]. Immigrant men and women, particularly those experiencing temporary unemployment, improper behavior, incapacity to work, poverty, chronic illness, or those seeking access to local, municipal, and provincial politics, faced discrimination based on the right of domicile. They were often subjected to close scrutiny by municipal authorities and native-born residents. A change of residence within the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy could lead to an individual’s perception of themselves, and by others, as foreigners, regardless of the high mobility and multicultural nature of urban centers such as Vienna and Trieste. Nevertheless, the concept of “foreignness” is a variable construct, changing according to political, economic, and social circumstances and networks. Following the dissolution of the Habsburg Monarchy, the exclusionary tools of pertinency automatically granted citizenship to certain individuals, irrespective of their workplace or long absence from their domicile municipality. However, this right of pertinence also caused significant social trauma across post-Habsburg Europe, leaving many at risk of statelessness (Kirch-ner-Reill et al.). Despite the extensive and varied application of the right of domicile in different social contexts within the late 19th-century Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, some recent historical analyses reduce its meaning to a mere “legal mechanism that communities used to avoid the costs and presence of persons considered socially undesirable.”

The article analyzes the development of the system of departmental management of closed cities in Russia in the period from the 1940s to the 2000s. For convenience, the temporary frames of the study are divided into three periods: the first dated 1945-1954, the second is 1954-1991, and the third period, which dates back to 1991, continues at the present stage and is relevant to the study to this day. At each of these periods, the main features of the system of departmental management of closed cities at the Federal, regional and municipal levels were highlighted. The analysis of the departmental management system is based on the normative legal acts issued by the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR in the Soviet period, and the government of the Russian Federation in the post-Soviet period. The results of the work revealed a specific way to establish a departmental structure for managing closed cities, with a number of features characteristic of secret territories.

Abstract:
Abstract Matrix acidizing, stimulation and other aqueous or solvent based pumping treatments such as scale squeezes, sand consolidation and organic deposition removal techniques play an ever-increasing role in maximizing value of high margin, high rate Deepwater wells. Near wellbore permeability impairment due to aqueous fluids capillary trap is a well-studied phenomenon in low permeability reservoirs but has not received much attention in high permeability oil reservoirs. During the execution of some of these different pumping treatments, an apparent formation damage was observed during execution in the form of lower productivity index (PI) post-treatment. In most cases, the PI impairment did not recover after the wells were brought online. In one case, the PI impairment slowly improved over time and fully recovered after the equivalent of ~1000 PV of the oil flow back. This temporary damage, in turn, created issues in terms of treatment design and execution often blurring the cause of damage and thereby affecting chemical and diverter selection and placement design variables. A laboratory study was undertaken to understand the nature of the damage. The results obtained from laboratory experiments to understand the impact of brines on effective permeability to oil are presented in this work. The results of the study are outlined below: Pore throat size distribution and degree of heterogeneity are principal factors controlling initial, short-term damage. Effective permeability reduction is related to non-uniform displacement by an alternate phase (oil or water), leaving less connected pores unswept. Long term damage depends on the flow rate / capillary number (Nc): High Rate / High Capillary Number results in short-term damage becoming permanent, Low rate / Low Capillary Number leads to gradual recovery over a long oil flowback period. Mutual solvents were not effective in removing the observed damage.

Full text
Abstract:
The demand of an increase in the cycle performance of today’s gas turbines creates severe heat loads in the first turbine stage, since higher operating temperatures are required. The mean flow temperature is usually well above the limit supported by the surrounding material. Cooling of both end-walls and the blades of the first stage is thus usually necessary. Consequently, mid-span streaks of hot gas pass through the first stator row and become hot jets of fluid. Also, the exit flow from a gas turbine combustor entering a turbine stage can have a wide variation in temperature. These variations may be both spatial and temporal. The implementation of cooling method requires a clear understanding of the aerodynamics involved. Both qualitative and quantitative assessments of the redistribution of inlet temperature distortions can be used to considerable advantage by the turbine designer. Experimentally it has been demonstrated that the rotor actually separates the hotter and cooler streams of fluid so that a hotter fluid migrates toward the pressure surface and cooler fluid migrates towards the suction surface. The main purpose of this study is to test the performance of a high-order LES model in terms of predicting this type of highly complicated unsteady flow and heat transfer phenomena. This work describes the performance of a high-order Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulent model (developed by the first author) related to the prediction of above mentioned redistribution of inlet temperature distortion in an experimental turbine. Because the understanding of the physical phenomena associated with this temperature redistribution behavior is a very challenging computational fluid dynamic problem. If the numerical method could predict the precisely measured data satisfactorily, then the fluid dynamic variables which are difficult to measure (but obtained as computed results) could be used to visualize the flow characteristics. This technique will also help to get rid off indirect measurement techniques with large measurement uncertainty. In our study emphasis is put to predict the unsteady turbulence characteristics. In this work 3-D unsteady Navier-Stokes analysis of a turbine stage (satisfying the experimental stator-rotor blade ratio) is carried out to study the above mentioned phenomena. The numerical results predicted the experimentally observed phenomena very well. The fact that the streamlines in the stator row remain unaffected was demonstrated by the numerical results. The measured characteristics of the streamline patterns in the rotor row resulted from the secondary flow effect and consequently the inlet temperature distortion effect is also very well predicted.

Abstract:
Abstract The cofferdam is the temporary barrier to stop the flow of water from a construction site work such as a support column foundation at a river or offshore. It allows for working in the dry condition when the construction is done adjacent or within the waters. However, it is a major cause of delays and increased construction costs because additional works are required to stop the water flow. Recently, in order to overcome the limitations of the conventional cofferdam methods such as sheet pile or caisson tube cofferdams, a large-diameter steel pipe cofferdam method has been proposed which can be installed quickly using suction installation method. The steel pipe cofferdam method is characterized in that the top-lid of the steel pipe is located above the sea level in order to use it as a water barrier, unlike conventional suction buckets where the whole structures are submerged. In this study, the circular steel pipe cofferdam with a 5 m inner diameter was fabricated and the installation tests were conducted on silty sand at the Saemaguem test site. During the experiment, variations of suction pressure and inclination of the steel pipe cofferdam were measured and post-analyzed. This study verified the new steel pipe cofferdam method and confirmed that the suction installation method can be successfully used for various purposes on the offshore structures.

Abstract:
Abstract Raniganj coal bed methane (CBM) field in India has over three hundred wells producing gas since 2010. Over time due to extensive dewatering, reservoir pressures have dropped to sub-hydrostatic levels, with some wells having water levels as low as 500m below the surface (~0.3 psi/ft gradient). Due to continuous production, the sand influx is ubiquitous in these moderately deviated wells requiring efficient well cleanout methodologies to continue production from old wells which have been shut due to sand ingress into the wellbore. This paper illustrates a detailed case study of effective well cleanout using Foam Assisted Coiled Tubing Cleanout. This methodology helped established standard practices across the entire field for foam cleanouts in old shut-in wells, helping in resuming gas production and avoiding expensive infill well drilling. Conventional two-phase nitrified cleanouts are sub-optimal due to very low bottom hole pressure (BHP) which requires higher nitrogen (N2) pumping rates and still had insufficient annular velocities considering 1.75-in. diameter coiled tubing (CT). Also, this poses a greater risk of the CT becoming stuck in the event of sudden lost returns. Hence, to establish circulation, all the existing thief zones need to be plugged. Using conventional lost circulation materials like calcium carbonates was not feasible due to the uncertain and expensive post-job clean-up required to restore zone permeability. Hence foam was selected for temporary zone plugging which can restore zone permeability automatically once foam disintegrates as per its half-life. Various foam recipes were tested to achieve the desired foam life, as it was imperative that it exceeded job treatment time. Also, localized work instructions were developed as per coal seam behavior, initial frac treatment pressures, and the production history of the well. These work instructions were then later developed into a standard operating practice (SOP) after achieving successful well cleanouts in a few initial pilot wells. In these 5.5-in. monobore completion wells, effective zonal isolation was required to sustain the higher flow velocities required for cleanouts. This was ensured by several CT simulation iterations aiming for foam quality of at least 75%. In absence of downhole pressure data, BHP was calculated from frac bottom hole treating pressures and ISIP. Also, the volumes of the foaming agent were optimized, and benchmarks were set for when to stop pumping the foaming agent and start taking pre-calculated sand bites. Considering that significant amounts of sand were to be cleaned out, it was important to calculate bite size, simulate the solids transport and maximum additional pressure head created during cleanouts. This paper presents a detailed case study of conducting Foam Cleanouts using Coiled Tubing in CBM wells having ultra-low BOTTOM HOLEP and big completion size of 5.5-in. The paper also describes in-depth procedures, lessons learned, and CT simulations involved which resulted in safe, successful, and efficient well cleanout jobs in over 50 wells.

Abstract:
Between 2014 and 2020 over 1.8 million refugees fled from Venezuela to Colombia as a result of a humanitarian crisis, many of them without a regular migratory status. We study the short- to medium-term labor market impacts in Colombia of the Permiso Temporal de Permanencia program, the largest migratory amnesty program offered to undocumented migrants in a developing country in modern history. The program granted regular migratory status and work permits to nearly half a million undocumented Venezuelan migrants in Colombia in August 2018. To identify the effects of the program, we match confidential administrative data on the location of undocumented migrants with department-monthly data from household surveys and compare labor outcomes in departments that were granted different average time windows to register for the amnesty online, before and after the program roll-out. We are only able to distinguish negative albeit negligible effects of the program on the formal employment of Colombian workers. These effects are predominantly concentrated in highly educated and in female workers.

Full text
Abstract:
Rising rates of social isolation in Canada and other middle- and high-income countries have turned scholarly attention to the kinds of places that facilitate social connections. “Third places” - physical and virtual places beyond home (first places) and work (second places) - are thought to foster social interaction, connection, belonging, and support. This evidence brief reports on a SSHRC funded knowledge synthesis that linked understandings about “third places” with situations of precarious employment, given that people facing precarious employment circumstances often lack the social opportunities and resources associated with stable workplaces. This scoping review assessed what is known about the types and characteristics of “third places” that help maintain social connectedness and address social isolation for adults experiencing precarious employment circumstances. The project examined English-language research articles published in multidisciplinary academic journals between 2012 and 2022. The review captured diverse forms of employment (i.e., gig work, involuntary part-time work, seasonal work, temporary migrant work) characterized as transient, non-permanent, unpredictable, having few worker protections or rights, and associated with low or unpredictable remuneration, as well as cyclical and long-term unemployment. In addition to synthesizing study results, findings attend to how studies addressed diverse social positions and studies’ geographic locations, methodologies, methods, and quality. The goal of the project was to understand the current state of knowledge on this topic; create dialogue about how social isolation can be addressed through precarious workers’ engagement with “third places”; and identify opportunities for stakeholders to partner on place-based interventions with people experiencing precarious employment circumstances.
