Organising Immigrants' Integration: Practices and Consequences in Labour Markets and Societies

Organising Immigrants' Integration: Practices and Consequences in Labour Markets and Societies by Andreas Diedrich, Barbara Czarniawska
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 306 Pages | ISBN : 3031268202 | 6.9 MB

This collection of field studies offers novel insights into the issues of migration and integration of immigrants. The focus of the chapters is on actions, processes, and complexity of organising practices, in contrast to more policy-oriented works. The contributors address vital questions: How is the labour market integration of refugees and other immigrants being organised in practice? What ideas of integration give rise to, and are promoted by contemporary integration initiatives? And what are the effects of these integration initiatives – on immigrants’ lives, and on their labour market integration in terms of diversity, gender, and power relations?

Irregular Migration: IMISCOE Short Reader by Maurizio Ambrosini , Minke H.J. Hajer
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 154 Pages | ISBN : 3031308379 | 3 MB

It defines irregular migrants and irregular migration by discussing the wide variety of definitions and highlights the reasons for the presence of irregular immigrants in developed countries. The book provides an overview of the variation in policies regarding irregular migrants and elaborates on how irregular migration is facilitated and supported. It discusses the trends and dynamics between border enforcement, human smuggling/trafficking, and on the support irregular migrants obtain by citizens and civil society while residing in the EU. Last but not least, the book also focuses on the agency and political mobilization of irregular migrants. As such, it provides a great resource for everyone interested in learning more about irregular migration.

Forced Migration and Separated Families: Everyday Insecurities and Transnational Strategies

Forced Migration and Separated Families: Everyday Insecurities and Transnational Strategies by Marja Tiilikainen, Johanna Hiitola, Abdirashid A. Ismail, Jaana Palander
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 229 Pages | ISBN : 3031249739 | 4.7 MB

This book examines the impacts and experiences of family separation on forced migrants and their transnational families. On the one hand, it investigates how people with a forced migration background in Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America experience separation from their families, and on the other, how family and kin in the countries of origin or transit are impacted by the often precarious circumstances of their family members in receiving countries. In particular, this book provides new knowledge on the nexus between transnational family separation, forced migration, and everyday (in)security. Additionally, it yields comparative information for assessing the impacts of relevant legislation and administrative practice in a number of national contexts. Based on rich empirical data, including unique cases about South-South migration, the findings in this book are highly relevant to academics in migration and refugee studies as well as policy-makers, legislators and practitioners.

Revising the Integration-Citizenship Nexus in Europe: Sites, Policies, and Bureaucracies of Belonging

Revising the Integration-Citizenship Nexus in Europe: Sites, Policies, and Bureaucracies of Belonging

Revising the Integration-Citizenship Nexus in Europe: Sites, Policies, and Bureaucracies of Belonging by Roxana Barbulescu, Sara Wallace Goodman, Luicy Pedroza
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 218 Pages | ISBN : 3031257251 | 6.5 MB

This book critically re-examines the theoretical and empirical interconnections between integration and citizenship, specifically, naturalisation. With new, empirical-grounded analyses of what we term 'citizenship-integration nexus' the central, shared contribution is showcasing how membership is informally achieved through everyday integration —usually around, but sometimes in spite of, formal citizenship requirements. By providing evidence of a nexus disjuncture, the book contributes to critical dialogues on immigrant integration and political incorporation, relevant for policymakers, civil society actors, and academics alike.

Migration and Domestic Space: Ethnographies of Home in the Making

Migration and Domestic Space: Ethnographies of Home in the Making by Paolo Boccagni, Sara Bonfanti
English | PDF EPUB | 2023 | 260 Pages | ISBN : 3031231244 | 12 MB

This book provides insight into the domestic space of people with an immigrant or refugee background. It selects and compares a whole spectrum of dwelling conditions with ethnographic material covering a variety of national backgrounds – Latin America, North and West Africa, Eastern Europe, South Asia – and an equally broad range of housing, household and legal arrangements. It provides a fine-grained understanding of migrants’ lived experience of their domestic space and shows the critical significance of the lived space of a house as a microcosm of societal constellations of identities, values and inequalities. The book enhances the connection between migration studies and research into housing, social reproduction, domesticity and material culture and provides an interesting read to scholars in migration studies, policy makers and practitioners with a remit in local housing and integration policies.

Migration Control Logics and Strategies in Europe: A North-South Comparison

Migration Control Logics and Strategies in Europe: A North-South Comparison

Migration Control Logics and Strategies in Europe: A North-South Comparison by Claudia Finotelli, Irene Ponzo
English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 334 Pages | ISBN : 3031260015 | 6.3 MB

Building upon the concept of migration regime, this book brings together the works of scholars who have investigated logics and routines of action in the field of immigration control within a single and innovative theoretical framework. The chapters cover a wide range of policy domains, from visa policy to the externalisation of controls, labour migration to asylum, internal controls towards irregular migration to restrictions for intra-EU mobility. By unravelling organisational strategies and practices across Europe, the book does not only contribute to dismantling the very idea of the European North-South divide in migration but also shows how Europe really works in the field of migration in times of deep economic, asylum and health crises. In this perspective, the book questions the widespread understanding of migration control outcomes as simply the result of more or less effective state policies without considering the embeddedness of the national policy goals and strategies in the dynamic interplay of different economies, institutional cultures and geopolitical positions.

Asylum Seekers in Australian News Media: Mediated (In)humanity

Asylum Seekers in Australian News Media: Mediated (In)humanity by Ashleigh Haw
English | EPUB | 2023 | 241 Pages | ISBN : 3031185676 | 0.4 MB

This book sheds light on how the public engage with, make sense of, and discursively evaluate news media constructions of people from asylum seeking backgrounds. As a case study, the author discusses her recent research combining Critical Discourse Analysis with a cultural studies Audience Reception framework to examine the perspectives of 24 Western Australians who took part in semi-structured interviews. During their interviews, participants were asked open-ended questions about: their general views on people seeking asylum, including Australia’s policy responses, their media engagement habits and preferences, and their views concerning how the Australian media represents people seeking asylum. The author compares and contrasts this research with broader interdisciplinary discussion, and the book will therefore appeal to students and scholars of migration, political communication, sociology, audience reception, critical media studies and sociolinguistics.
