A Comparative Study of Return Migration Policies Targeting the Highly Skilled in Four Major Sending Countries

Authors Koen JONKERS
Description
This report is an attempt to provide a provisional comparative analysis of policies implemented in China, India, Argentina, and Mexico to facilitate the return of highly skilled expatriates and their professional reintegration. These countries differ in terms of the outbound and return flows of highly skilled professionals, as well as in the timing and intensity of the programs they have implemented. In general, career or business opportunities, and hence the offer of a conducive professional and socio-economic environment are central to attracting returnees. Migrant networks, temporary and permanent return migration programs exist in various forms and, apart from having their own merits, can complement each other in facilitating the return migration process. A long term, pluralistic and systemic approach, which in parallel to offering incentives involves the removal of administrative barriers, is considered to be important in bringing back and successfully reintegrating large numbers of highly skilled expatriates.

Return Migration and Working Choices

Authors Massimiliano TANI, Stéphane MAHUTEAU
Description
This paper uses the recent survey carried out in the framework of the MIREM project on returnees to Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia and studies the duration of emigration and the labour force status upon returning. The results suggest that age and the year of emigration play a central role in the migration decision, but they do not support the hypothesis that the duration of migration is determined by the desired labour market status upon returning home.

Gender, Migration and Intercultural Interactions in the Mediterranean and South East Europe: an interdisciplinary perspective

Description
Ge.M.IC will study “Cultural Interactions in a European Perspective” through a tripartite conceptual and methodological approach, whose aim will be to identify links between migration, gender and intercultural interaction, as it is in the meeting place of these three dimensions that some of the most important cultural developments in Europe take place. Ge.M.IC will approach these questions from a critical perspective emphasizing in particular the impact of migrant mobility and cultural diversity on gender relation in host, transit and sending societies. Research will be of an interdisciplinary nature in accordance with the broad range of expertise of the researchers collaborating in the project. The organization of work will reflect the inter-ethnic and interdisciplinary character of the consortium focusing both fieldwork and analysis on six thematic areas of study, rather than on national case studies: representations of national identity and the media, education, urban social spaces and movements, religion, violence, and the family. Ge.M.IC will generate new and important insights in these thematic areas, taking advantage of the diverse areas of expertise of different researchers and their mutual commitment to studying gender and addressing issues of gender equality as a central aspect of research.

Ungdom i flyktningfamilier Familie og vennskap - trygghet og frihet?

Authors Ada Engebrigtsen, Øivind Fuglerud
Description
Denne rapporten er utarbeidet for Redd Barna av Ada Engebrigtsen og Øivind Fuglerud og er den første rapporteringen fra intervjuundersøkelsen «Ungdom i flyktningfamilier» som er finansiert av Helse- og Rehabilitering. Rapporten er videre basert på utdrag fra NOVA-undersøkelsen Ung i Oslo 2006. De statistiske dataene fra Ung i Oslo 2006 er bearbeidet av Bera Moseng. Intervju-undersøkelsen omfatter 36 intervjuer med 61 ungdommer i Oslo og Tromsø, Ung i Oslo omfatter bl.a. statistisk materiale fra 166 ungdommer med bakgrunn fra Somalia og 164 med bakgrunn fra Sri Lanka, alle fra Oslo. Rapporten gir en bred beskrivelse av ungdom i flyktningfamilier, hovedsaklig med somalisk og tamilsk bakgrunn, slik de selv beskriver sider ved sine liv. Rapporten legger hovedvekten på spørsmål omkring familietilknytning og familieforhold, vennskap, fritid og nabolag, forhold til skole og lærere, tillitsforhold og opplevelse av inklusjon og eksklusjon, og betydningen, men også begrensningen ved etniske fellesskap.

A Contradiction in Terms? The activity of Women and Migrants in Extreme Right-wing Populist Parties: a case study of Sweden Democrats.

Principal investigator Anders Neergaard (REMESO Project Leader), Diana Mulinari (Participants not from REMESO)
Description
During the last 20 years their has been an upsurge in research on xenophobic populist parties mirroring their political successes. However, these studies have rarely touched upon the role of women and immigrants within these parties. While women are often invisible in research, located in a marginal role as girl-friends and sisters, migrants support to these parties is often defined as a contradiction in terms and remains un-theorised. The aim of the study is to analyse the double edged relationship between on the one side women and migrants approaching the Swedish xenophic populist party -Sweden Democrats, and on the other side the discourse of the party in respect to women and migrants in their conditions of representatives. It will identify women's and migrant's agency and explore the ways through which these shape, constrain and influence their position in the organisation. Theoretically the project is framed within gender and IMER studies, focusing on the notions of the family and nationhood, and the notions of ethnic belonging and nationhood. Methodologically the study is based on in depth interviews and life-stories with women and migrants representing SD in municipalities.
