Transnational family networks: an analysis of care-giving arrangements within migrant families

Description
This project aims to further develop theoretical and empirical knowledge on the interrelationship between geographic distance, care practices and family relations. The specific question this study addresses is the extent to which transnational adult migrants are able to exchange care and support with their geographically distant parents, and the specific role that intrafamilial dynamics play in the exchange of care between adult migrants, their siblings and their parents. This will be done by analyzing the experiences of Dominican migrants in Belgium and their geographically distant kin. The study will focus on three types of care-giving arrangements: long distance care-giving (provision of support from a distance) ; aged migration (permanent or temporary migration of dependent elderly parents in order to be cared for by their child(ren) in the host country) ; and migrants repatriation (migrants moving back home to care for their parents). Particular attention will be paid to gendered dynamics and power relations within the families, as well as other structural factors that influence decisions regarding each type of care-giving arrangement. Fieldwork will include semi-structured interviews and participant observation with Dominican migrants residing in Belgium, their parents (father and/or mother) and up to 2 key siblings.

Ethnic Diversity and Social Cohesion in Germany

Principal investigator Bram Lancee (Principal Investigator)
Description
"After more than half a century of mass immigration to Europe, the consequences of increasing ethnic diversity in Europe are far from clear. More specifically, one of the prominent questions on today’s research agenda is how ethnic diversity affects social cohesion and attitudes towards immigrants. This project aims to contribute to answering this question. Recently, ample attention has been paid to the relation between ethnic diversity and social cohesion in the neighbourhood. Putnam (2007), for example, claims that in the short run, immigration and ethnic diversity tend to reduce solidarity and social capital. Several scholars report that ethnic diversity affects social cohesion (Lancee & Dronkers 2011; Letki 2008; Tolsma, Van der Meer & Gesthuizen 2009; Putnam 2007; Gijsberts, van der Meer & Dagevos 2011; Alesina & La Ferrara 2000)and attitudes towards immigrants (Schlueter & Scheepers 2010; Pettigrew & Tropp 2006). To date, little longitudinal research has been done on the relation between ethnic diversity and social cohesion in Germany. The objective of this project is to carry out longitudinal analyses with the German Socio-Economic Panel Survey (GSOEP) and neighbourhood data on the zip code level. In short, I will examine the relation between neighbourhood diversity and indicators of social cohesion and attitudes toward immigration."

REMIG is guided by four research questions: 1. How do immigrants in various situations reflect upon and decide about return migration? 2. How does the possibility of return interact with A) integration in the country of residence and B) transnational relationships? 3. How can we understand and explain the patterns of actual return among immigrants? 4. How is return migration experienced by return migrants and the communities to which they return?

Alters- und geschlechtsspezifische Migrationsbewegungen in den neuen Bundesländern

Principal investigator Stephan Kühntopf (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Die Abwanderung aus Ostdeutschland dominierte nach der Wiedervereinigung lange das gesamtdeutsche Binnenwanderungsgeschehen und die Bevölkerungsentwicklung. Weit verbreitet waren in den neuen Ländern auch Suburbanisierungsprozesse, Umzüge von den Städten in das Umland. Die Ost-West-Migration hat mittlerweile an Bedeutung verloren, stattdessen steht die kleinräumige Migration innerhalb der ostdeutschen Länder zunehmend im Vordergrund. Dabei zeigen sich regional große Gegensätze, insbesondere zwischen ländlichen Räumen und Hochschulstandorten. Aufgabe des Projektes war es, die Migration innerhalb der ostdeutschen Bundesländer und zwischen Ost- und Westdeutschland näher zu analysieren. Damit sollten alters- und geschlechtsspezifische Charakteristika sowie ihr Einfluss auf die regionale Bevölkerungsentwicklung und -struktur der ostdeutschen Regionen ermittelt werden. Ein besonderes Augenmerk lag dabei auf der Abwanderung junger Frauen."

Impact Analysis of Integration and Migration Policy Measures on the Integration of Third Country Nationals in Europe

Principal investigator Martin Hofmann (Project Team Member), David Reichel (Project Team Member)
Description
Against the background of intense discussions on the integration of third country nationals, integration policies and integration measures became increasingly important within general migration policies. How the responsible authorities evaluate the effectiveness of their policies has not been researched so far and a systematic comparison of methods used for impact analysis of integration measures and experiences made by the authorities is missing. This study investigates the perspectives and experiences of authorities and experts dealing with integration of immigrants in Austria and in selected EU member states (including Denmark, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Sweden and the United Kingdom). Aim of the study and objectives The goals of the study are (1) to prepare a comparative analysis of methods used for evaluating the effectiveness of integration policy measures in selected member states of the EU, (2) to assess the possibilities and limitations of impact analysis of integration policy measures and (3) to formulate a concrete proposal for the systematic impact analysis of such measures. The main research questions of the study are: • How is the effectiveness of integration policy measures evaluated in EU Member States? Which methods are employed for impact analysis? • What are the main results of those evaluations? Are there plans to adapt or further develop the methods of impact analysis? • To what extent and in which way do the results of evaluations of integration policy measures contribute to the development of integration policies? • What is the contribution of academic research to the development of impact analysis? In how far is it possible to better integrate results of research studies into policy development? Outcomes • Summary report • 7 country reports

Emigracja zarobkowa i powrót do kraju w doświadczeniach współczesnych Polaków. Studium socjopedagogiczne

Principal investigator Magdalena Piorunek ()
Description
Przez wiele lat Polska była krajem emigracji, krajem wysyłającym do innych krajów Europy Zachodniej. Kiedy Polska stała się członkiem Unii Europejskiej tylko trzy kraje otworzyły od razu swoje rynki pracy, były to Anglia, Irlandia i Szwecja. W 2006 roku polscy obywatele mogli podejmować legalne zatrudnienie w kolejnych krajach- Finlandii, Grecji, Włoszech, Portugalii czy Hiszpanii. Badania podjęte w niniejszej rozprawie dotyczą młodych Polaków pracujących za granicą. Jednym z problemów poruszonych w pracy jest próba odpowiedzi na pytanie czy wyjazd emigracyjny posłużył poprawie ich życia, Co znaczą dla nich emigracyjne doświadczenia? Czy są szczęśliwi i jak często odwiedzają rodzinę pozostającą w Polsce? Jaki rodzaj pracy wykonują na emigracji? I czy wykonywana przez nich praca jest zgodna z uzyskanym przez młodych emigrantów doświadczeniem? Kolejnym zagadnieniem poruszanym w pracy jest aspekt drenażu mózgów w odniesieniu do współczesnego zjawiska „cyrkulacji mózgów” i ich marnotrawstwa. Młodzi Polacy relacjonują w badanych, iż emigracyjny wyjazd spowodował, iż zminimalizowaniu uległy ich finansowe problemy, iż wzrosło ich poczucie sprawstwa. Przyjęta koncepcja pracy powoduje, iż jej struktura składa się z trzech części. W pierwszej (rozdział I i II) zawarto teoretyczne konstrukty opisywanego zjawiska. W drugiej (rozdział III) przedstawione zostały założenia metodologiczne projektu badawczego, w trzeciej zaś części (rozdział IV i V) - uzyskane drogą weryfikacji empirycznych wnioski i ich podsumowanie. Pierwszy rozdział przybliżyć ma, oprócz charakterystycznych dla XXI wieku kwestii związanych z globalizacją, także stricte teoretyczny - terminologiczny aspekt migracji międzynarodowych. Świat doby globalizacji oraz jego relacji wobec migracji międzynarodowych, został ukazany w kontekście społecznym, kulturowym i gospodarczym. Poruszono także kwestię transnacjonalizmu w migracyjnym wymiarze. Zważywszy na fakt, iż przedmiotem zainteresowania niniejszej dysertacji są migracje poakcesyjne, sporo miejsca poświecono także regulacjom związanym z polityką rynku pracy w Unii Europejskiej. Dokonano następnie przeglądu i charakterystyki ruchów migracyjnych, a także teorii migracji i jej faz. W kolejnej części rozważań, uwagę skoncentrowano na specyfice polskiej emigracji zagranicznej oraz migracji powrotnej, ukazując jej aspekt historyczny oraz dynamikę zmian. Całość wzbogacona została komentarzami płynącymi z najnowszych badań, które opisują trendy charakteryzujące współczesną poakcesyjna emigracje z Polski. Wybrane aspekty socjopedagogicznego dyskursu nad emigracją poakcesyjną uczyniono kolejnym elementem rozdziału. Zwrócono w nim uwagę na zjawisko deprecjacji kwalifikacji- ich marnotrawstwa, (jednakże wbrew potocznym opiniom) w kontekście swoistej życiowej zaradności, będącej wyrazem determinacji mającej na celu poprawę losu jednostek, bez względu na charakter podjętego przez nie zatrudnienia. W tej części podjęto się także rozważań na temat istoty, alarmistycznie opisywanego drenażu mózgów, w kontekście poakcesyjnej emigracji i tego, czy stanowi dla Polski i jej obywateli realne zagrożenie. Ponowoczesna migracyjna sieć wsparcia i jej nowa jakość w postaci blogosfery- jako „natychmiastowego panaceum na wszelkie migracyjne dolegliwości” to kolejne z omówionych zagadnieniem. Na koniec rozważań teoretycznych pochylono się nad kwestią i modelami polskich migracji powrotnych, ich konsekwencjami i wynikającymi z nich zagrożeniami. Trzeci rozdział posłużył przedstawieniu podstaw metodologicznych, przeprowadzonych metodą sondażu diagnostycznego (z wykorzystaniem złożonego z trzech części kwestionariusza ankiety) badań, których wyniki i analiza zaprezentowane zostały w następnych częściach pracy – w rozdziale czwartym i piątym - prezentując społeczno – demograficzny profil poakcesyjnego migranta. Część ta obejmuje analizę głównych motywów wyjazdu i powrotu, dynamikę biograficznych doświadczeń polskich migrantów, z uwzględnieniem takich aspektów ludzkiej biografii jak: -doświadczenia zawodowe, -struktura oraz funkcjonowanie rodzin migracyjnych, (z perspektywy emigranta) -struktura racji działania dotycząca różnych aspektów decyzyjnych w biografii migrantów, -asocjacje towarzyszące Polakom powracającym z emigracji zarobkowej, -trudności adaptacyjne podczas emigracji i po powrocie z niej, -struktura sieci społecznego wsparcia i pomocy społecznej w trzech perspektywach czasowych, w których funkcjonowali i funkcjonują emigranci. Ponadto istotnym elementem omawianej części jest ocena migracyjnych doświadczeń, dokonanych przez samych migrantów, będąca próbą bilansu migracyjnego epizodu i jego roli w życiu młodych reemigrantów. Rozdział IV przedstawia zatem wyniki, uzyskanych drogą empirycznych weryfikacji, badań. Ostatni rozdział niniejszej pracy przybliża podsumowanie wniosków będące finalnym efektem badawczych dociekań.

Altern und Generationenbeziehungen in Familien mit Migrationshintergrund - Ein Vergleich russischsprachiger Migranten in Israel und Niedersachsen

Principal investigator Claudia Vogel (Principal Investigator ), Sharon Shiovitz-Ezra (Principal Investigator )
Description
Familien stehen künftig vor neuen Herausforderungen: Aufgrund des demogra-phischen Wandels stellt sich auch für die Familien russischsprachiger Migran-ten die Frage, wer soll bzw. wer kann künftig die Unterstützung und Pflege der Älteren übernehmen. Am Beispiel von Aussiedlern und jüdischen Migranten aus der ehemaligen Sowjetunion, die zusammen mit fast 3 Millionen Personen eine der größten Migrantengruppen in Deutschland bilden, sollen familiale Genera-tionenbeziehungen komparativ untersucht und spezifische Bedarfe der Älteren analysiert werden. In Israel stellt die Gruppe der russischsprachigen Migranten sogar über 20 Prozent der Bevölkerung, dort liegen Bereits wegweisende Be-funde gerontologischer Studien vor. Aus Auswertungen des Survey of Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) zu Netzwerken und familialem Austausch in Israel ist bekannt, dass ältere Migranten finanziell häufiger von ihren Familien unterstützt werden müssen, während sie ihren erwachsenen Kindern seltener helfen können. Für Deutschland sollen 500 Telephoninterviews mit Zuwanderern aus der ehemali-gen Sowjetunion durchgeführt werden, um Daten zu Generationenbeziehungen der russischsprachigen Migranten zu erheben. Aus dem Ländervergleich lassen sich Erkenntnisse darüber gewinnen, ob die Unterstützungsnetzwerke der rus-sischsprachigen Migranten in Deutschland ebenfalls familienzentrierter sind und ob künftig möglicherweise eine Überlastung der familialen Generationen-beziehungen droht.
