Ethnic Diversity and Attitudes towards Immigrants: Evidence for Threat or Contact Effects?

Principal investigator Elmar Schlüter (Principal Investigator), Ulrich Wagner (Principal Investigator), Peer Scheepers (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Theoretical background and objectives This project comprises two studies that use two different data sets to examine the influence of ethnic diversity on interethnic contacts and attitudes towards immigrants by drawing on insights from group threat and inter-group contact theory. The project advances over earlier research by a) opening the black box of the mediating mechanisms via which ethnic diversity – operationalised as the population share of immigrants – affects citizens' immigration policy preferences and interethnic contacts as well as b) testing competing propositions derived from contact and group threat theory at different individual and contextual levels of analysis. In the first study, we examine which role the size of the immigrant population plays in explaining immigrant derogation within and between European regions and consider the following question: does a larger size of immigrant population increase perceived group threat and thereby lead to greater immigrant derogation? Or does it increase intergroup contact and thereby ameliorate immigrant derogation? In the second study we derive competing hypotheses on the role the size of the immigrant population plays for explaining the anti-immigrant attitudes of Dutch citizens. Research design and methodology The first study uses regionalised European Social Survey 2002 and official data, which were analysed by means of multilevel structural equation modelling. The second study uses structural equation modelling with robust standard errors on nationally representative Dutch survey data enriched with official municipality-level statistics. Findings Both studies converge in demonstrating that ethnic diversity exerts dual effects in promoting interethnic contact, but also to produce prejudice. Perceived group threat is associated with immigrant derogation. However, intergroup contact reduces perceived group threat and thereby amends such derogation of immigrants. Between regions, our findings show that a larger size of the immigrant population increases both greater perceived group threat and intergroup contact. At the same time, the effects of perceived group threat and intergroup contact on immigrant derogation resemble those found within regions. In sum, these results lend evidence to the generalisability of both group threat and contact effects."

Fussballmigration - ein Traum von Europa und seine Wirkung auf das Deutsche Ausländerbild

Principal investigator Erdmute Alber (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Fußball boomt in Afrika. Straßenfußball hat viele öffentliche Plätze erobert und der ganze Kontinent fiebert der ersten Weltmeisterschaft auf afrikanischem Boden, Mitte 2010 in Südafrika, entgegen. Bereits seit einigen Jahren bietet Fußballspielen jungen Afrikanern die Möglichkeit um einer besseren Lebensperspektive willen nach Europa zu migrieren. Obwohl nur wenige den Sprung nach ganz oben schaffen, ist der Traum von Europa unter den jungen Talenten allgegenwärtig: sie wurden „auf der Straße entdeckt“, in Fußballschulen in ihren Heimatländern ausgebildet oder kommen als talentierte Jugendliche, um in den Jugendmannschaften europäischer Vereine an den Profibereich herangeführt zu werden. Von ihrem Wissen, der Kompetenz auf hohem Niveau Fußball zu spielen, profitieren die Vereine durch sportlichen und ökonomischen Erfolg. Die Generierung, Anwendung und Perzeption dieses Wissens in Europa stehen im Vordergrund des Projekts. Es wird erforscht werden, wie junge Afrikaner Strategien entwickeln, fußballerisches Wissen zu erlangen und dieses in europäischen Vereinen anzuwenden ob und wie sich durch die afrikanischen Profifußballer das Wissen über Migranten aus Afrika in Europa verändert und ob und inwieweit die Fußballer im Profi- wie auch im Freizeitbereich Anteil an der Generierung eines neuen Bildes über Afrikaner in Europa haben. Zudem wird untersucht werden, ob Fußballwissen als Mittel zur Integration von Migranten genutzt werden kann. Schließlich wollen wir auch das Wissen von jungen Fußballtalenten in den Blick nehmen, das notwendig ist, um nach Europa zu gelangen.Die Migration afrikanischer Fußballer ist mit zwei grundlegenden Problemen, dem Vorwurf des Menschenhandels und der Gefahr rassistischer Anfeindungen (insbesondere im Amateurbereich), verbunden, die den Prozess der Migration und Integration im Zwielicht erscheinen lassen. Eine ganzheitliche Perspektive, die den gesamten Prozess von der Wissensgenerierung über den Wissenstransfer (die Migration) bis hin zur Wissensartikulation abbildet, kann Ursachen der Probleme verorten, den beteiligten Akteuren Handlungs- bzw. Interventionsempfehlungen geben sowie aktiven Einfluss auf Integrationshemmnisse nehmen. Die Untersuchungen werden deshalb sowohl in Afrika (Südafrika und Ghana), als auch in Deutschland durchgeführt. Zudem wird „Migration und Wissen“ nicht nur im Umfeld junger afrikanischer Männer, sondern auch im Bereich weiblicher Fußballmigrationen untersucht."

Temporary migration, integration and the role of Policies

Principal investigator Herbert Brücker (Principal Investigator), Stella Capuano (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Durch die stetige Reduktion der Reise- und Telekommunikationskosten bei nahezu gleichbleibenden Einkommensunterschieden in Europa wird Migration und Rückwanderung zu einem weit verbreiteten Phänomen. Das TEMPO Forschungsprojekt erweitert unser Wissen über dieses wichtige Forschungsfeld hinsichtlich verschiedener Dimensionen. Zuerst werden verschiedene Datensätze aufgebaut mit deren Hilfe die Ursache und Wirkung temporärer Migration untersucht wird. Zweitens wird die Integration der Migranten in das Wirtschaftssystem analysiert und die Zeitdimension der Migrationsentscheidung in Verbindung gesetzt. Schließlich werden die politischen Entscheidungsprozesse hinsichtlich temporärer Migration und Rückmigration untersucht und deren Wohlfahrtseffekte analysiert.

FRIM: Fundamental rights situation of irregular immigrants in the European Union

Description
to examine key aspects of the situation of irregular immigrants in the European Union, in order to assess the extent to which their fundamental rights are respected and protected. Irregular migrants have no legal status and are therefore most vulnerable to exploitation and discrimination in key areas of social life. They are affected by formal barriers to the enjoyment and exercise of rights. More often, however, it is practical obstacles which discourage irregular immigrants to approach public service providers or courts for fear of being identified as irregular and consequently removed from the territory. This results, for instance, in persons in need of urgent medical treatment not seeking health care or victims of serious violations not seeking justice.

E-Diaspora Atlas

Principal investigator Dana Diminescu (Principal Investigator)
Description
Le projet « e-diasporas atlas » entend se démarquer de la formule classique d&rsquo,un atlas des migrations qui se focalise traditionnellement sur les flux, les trajectoires ou la dispersion des populations en mouvement sur les territoires physiques. Les évolutions récentes du phénomène migratoire montrent que les parcours des migrants d&rsquo,aujourd&rsquo,hui passent aussi &ndash, et parfois bien avant d&rsquo,investir le parcours physique &ndash, par les territoires numériques. L'un des changements majeurs intervenu depuis les années 80 dans le domaine des diasporas tient à la multiplication des communautés en dispersion dans l&rsquo,espace physique et à leurs nouvelles formes de regroupement, d&rsquo,action et d&rsquo,occupation dans les territoires numériques. Ce changement appelle à une autre approche épistémologique. Les sujets tout comme les outils conceptuels et méthodologiques classiques de la discipline doivent êtres reconsidérés et confrontés avec cette nouvelle donne migratoire. Le projet E-Diasporas Atlas a pour ambition 1. d'analyser une réalité sociologique en pleine mutation et porteuse de nouvelles questions sur les migrations. 2. d'expérimenter des outils de production, assemblage et mise à disposition de contenus. Ouvrir un nouveau terrain de recherche, articuler deux courants d&rsquo,études jusqu&rsquo,ici relativement dissociés (les théories des diasporas et l&rsquo,étude de l&rsquo,exploration du web) et développer des outils génériques à redéployer dans d&rsquo,autres disciplines SHS sont les objectifs majeurs de ce projet. Il s&rsquo,articule autour de trois composantes : - Exploration et constitution de corpus : Les chercheurs-experts mobilisés dans le cadre de ce projet explorent le web pour constituer leur corpus. Ils disposent d'outils spécifiques pour les aider dans cette tâche (leur permettant de capitaliser la navigation, enrichir et organiser les données, etc.). Les chercheurs pilotent toutes les phases de ces explorations ainsi que leur enchaînement. - Archivage : Après avoir réaliser des crawls de validation de ces corpus, les corpus collectés sont archivés dans leur épaisseur temporelle. - Analyse des corpus: Cette analyse intervient dès la phase d&rsquo,exploration. Elle nous permet d&rsquo,orienter méthodologiquement la prospection et d'évaluer le degré de 'diasporisation' des communautés des migrants en ligne. Elle comporte plusieurs niveaux : confrontation du terrain numérique et du terrain physique, analyse des réseaux, visualisation et cartographie des corpus, analyse sémantique des contenus, etc. Cette chaîne méthodologique représente une innovation dans les sciences humaines.

Naturalization policy index

Description
The index analyses naturalization policies in twenty-six Western immigrant-receiving democracies in order to show how different countries deal with newcomers (year of reference: 2009). The index looks at five aspects of a country’s citizenship and naturalization policies. First, it considers whether a country grants automatic citizenship only to children of citizens (ius sanguinis) or only to those who are born within the country’s border (ius soli). Second, every naturalization policy stipulates that immigrants have to have lived at least a certain number of years within the borders of the country before they can apply for citizenship. Third, it looks at whether passing a language test is part of the naturalization requirements. These tests vary significantly in difficulty. Fourth, in some countries immigrants cannot be naturalized without passing a citizenship test, while in other countries such a test does not exist. Moreover, these tests vary in nature. Fifth, and finally, it includes whether immigrants are required to give up their former nationality or nationalities before they can become citizens. These five scores are combined in an index that ranges from 0 to 15. Overall, this summary score should give a valid indication of the exclusiveness, or ‘ethnicness’, of a country’s naturalization policy.

Migrant Rights Index

Description
The index addresses the legal rights (civil and political, economic, social, residency, and family reunion rights) granted to migrant workers admitted under labour immigration programs in high- and middle-income countries to admitting migrant workers. Labor immigration programs are defined as policies for regulating the number, skills, and rights of migrants who are admitted for the primary purpose of work. It includes 104 programmes in force for the year 2009. Migrant rights refer to the legal rights (defined here as the rights granted by national laws and policies) granted to migrant workers on admission under a particular labour immigration program. So the indicators measure rights “in laws and regulations” rather than “in practice”. The dataset includes all high-income countries with a population exceeding two million, and, to ensure broad geographic coverage, a selection of upper- and lower- middle-income countries. In total, the sample comprises 46 countries including 34 high-income countries.

Ethnicity in Preschool: Social Interaction and Institutionel Practice

Principal investigator Sabine Gruber (REMESO Project Leader), Tünde Puskas (Participants from REMESO), Polly Björk-Willén (Participants not from REMESO)
Description
Since the 1970s, preschool has been seen as an important place for ethnic integration. Yet, it has not been much investigated with respect to ethnicity aspects. This project aims to explore how ethnicity is accomplished in a number of Swedish preschools. More specifically it focuses on the interaction between children, parents and teachers, and how ethnicity is invoked and made meaningful in every day practices. Moreover, it maps the organizational framework for everyday interactions and practices, in relation to bilingualism and ethnicity. The project is planned as four sub-studies in order to reach a broader understanding of how ethnicity is constructed in different preschool contexts. A variety of methods will be deployed - focus group interviews as well as dyadic interviews, video recordings, participant observations, and analyses of documents - which all supplement each other. We believe that the project will deepen the knowledge about how ethnicity is accomplished in daily preschool interactions and practices. The project also aims to increase understandings of everyday constructions of ethnicity, which has relevance both for preschool teachers and for preschool teacher students.

Tilhørighetens balanse Norsk-pakistanske kvinners hverdagsliv i transnasjonale familier

Authors Bjørg Moen
Description
Rapporten setter søkelys på kvinners hverdagsliv i norsk-pakistanske familier. Forskeren har søkt å løse opp dikotomiseringen mellom «moderne» og «tradisjonelle» muslimske kvinner som ofte blir forstått i relasjon til «vestlige selvstendige kvinner» og «muslimske passive og undertrykte kvinner». Hun viser et mangfold av tilpasninger og meninger som kvinner har. Endringer og variasjoner preger livet, der familierelasjoner er i endring og tradisjonelle autoritetsstrukturer utfordres. Kvinner deltar på ulike arenaer i samfunnet, men fortsetter å ha tilhørighet i tette norsk-pakistanske familier og nettverk. Familiesamhold veier tungt også transnasjonalt.

Transnationalisme, Dynamiques Identitaires et Diversification Culturelle en situations urbaines post-migratoires

Principal investigator Marco Martiniello (Coordinator), Hassan Bousetta (Partner), Sonia Gsir (Researcher), Caroline Zickgraf (Researcher)
Description
TRICUD aims at better understanding some of the reciprocal relationships between migration and change. The principal objective is indeed to better understand how migration transforms both sending societies in the South and receiving societies in the North. It is widely acknowledged that international migration has always been a cause as well as a result of economic, political, social and cultural change. It is a key dimension of globalisation. It affects, the dynamics of identities, the process of cultural diversification and social representations in urban settings both in the North and South. Migration has also prompted the formation of transnational social spaces connecting home and destination countries. This phenomenon is observable between Belgium and some of the countries of origin of its migrant population. The Democratic Republic of Congo and Morocco are in this respect two strategic case-studies. In order to better understand the dynamics of identities, the processes of cultural diversification and the dynamics of representations in urban settings affected by international migration and immigrants’ transnational practices both in Belgium and in two immigrant sending countries, the research will be carried out along three main directions, which consist in the 3 research projects are the post-migratory city and transnational flows, the dynamics of identities and the process of cultural diversification.

Identity questions. Measuring openness and closure in European Societies

Description
This project aims to give to the researcher different opportunities: the first one is to develop further the main results coming out from her previous research projects and apply them into a distinct issue, that of openness and closure of societies towards different communities. The second is to improve knowledge and expertise of the researcher, by training her in a different methodology. The researcher will thus be able to apply this methodology to her new research project. Finally this project will consent to her to bear fruit of her previous experience into the international academic environment and therefore to get further into it, through the IBEI’s worldwide connections. The core of the research project consists in the development of a previous researches result - the formulation of a functioning model of the process of identity construction - which she will use to analyse the effects of inter-ethnic relations in two different European contexts. This model illustrates how openness and closure of societies depends on a complex situation which is resulting from reactions of individuals and groups to a negotiation among social, personal and collective identities within the process of identity construction. Through the use of this model, the researcher will explore the elements that influence the perception of the “others”, and which make local communities distinguish immigrants into different categories. The researcher will analyse the interaction amongst different cultures, as well as elements which facilitate and those which obstruct relations with diverse communities. The project will have four phases: in the first the researcher will build the theoretical basis of the research, in the second she will analyse the two case-studies (one in Spain and one in Austria); in the third she will be trained in a new methodology (frame analysis); in the fourth she will apply frame analysis to her research project and in the final phase she will write the results.

Das heuristische Potential nationaler Modellvorstellungen für das Verständnis und den internationalen Vergleich von Migrations- und Integrationspolitiken (Netzwerk)

Principal investigator Ines Michalowski (Principal Investigator)
Description
Das wissenschaftliche Netzwerk „Das heuristische Potential nationaler Modellvorstellungen für das Verständnis und den internationalen Vergleich von Migrations- und Integrationspolitiken“ soll sich in insgesamt vier Arbeitstreffen mit der Frage nach der weiterhin gegebenen Aktualität von Integrationsmodellen wie dem Multikulturalismus, der Assimilation oder dem Gastarbeitermodell beschäftigen. Hierzu sind zunächst zwei Treffen vorgesehen, die sich mit der bereits vorhandenen Literatur (Integrationsmodelle verwendende Klassiker der vergleichenden Migrationsforschung und kritische Analysen dieser Integrationsmodelle) auseinandersetzen. Das dritte und vierte Treffen sollen dazu dienen, die eigenen vergleichenden Arbeiten der Netzwerkmitglieder mit den bei den ersten zwei Treffen geführten theoretischen Diskussionen in Zusammenhang zu bringen und die für den Sammelband geplanten Beiträge zu diskutieren. Das Netzwerk verfolgt somit zum einen das Ziel den aktuellen Stand der (theoretisch verankerten) vergleichenden Migrationsforschung zu erheben. Zum anderen soll durch den Bezug zu eigenen empirischen und theoretischen Arbeiten der Netzwerkmitglieder sowie der für die verschiedenen Treffen vorgesehen Gäste das heuristische Potential der Integrationsmodelle gerade auch für zukünftige Studien beurteilt werden. Die Ergebnisse sollen in einem englischsprachigen Sammelband veröffentlicht werden.

Competence and Contacts. The Relevance of Different Types of Social Relations for Establishment in the Labour Market for Young Persons of Immigrant Backgrounds.

Principal investigator Martin Klinthäll (REMESO Project Leader), Aliaksei Kazlou (Participants from REMESO), Susanne Urban (Participants from REMESO)
Description
Studies of neighbourhood effects, school effects, ethnic networks, and other kinds of social contacts have shown that social environments and networks influence establishment and career in the labour market in different ways and, hence, may explain why newly arrived immigrants frequently face difficulty in becoming established in the labour market. The purpose of this project is to study the comparative importance of different kinds of social relations. Several types of social contexts are studied and put in contrast to each other; neighbourhoods, schools, workplaces, national and transnational ethnic networks, as well as formal competence and the situation in the labour market. Hence, the project takes into account both the characteristics of the individual and the opportunities and constraints of the context.

Netzwerkbeziehungen und Identitätskonstruktionen - Rückkehrstrategien von Spätaussiedlern im Kontext sich wandelnder Migrationsregime

Principal investigator Alois Hahn (Principal Investigator ), Michael Schönhuth (Principal Investigator )
Description
Das Teilprojekt untersucht die Rückkehrstrategien von Spätaussiedlern vor dem Hintergrund sich wandelnder struktureller Rahmenbedingungen und den damit verbundenen Modi von Inklusion und Exklusion. Das Forschungsinteresse gilt insbesondere der Frage, welche Rolle Netzwerkbeziehungen und Identitätskonstruktionen in diesem Prozess spielen. Ziel ist es, über einen Mehrebenenansatz zu einem auch für die gegenwärtige politische Remigrationsdebatte relevanten Verständnis der kulturellen Praxis dieser ganz speziellen Migrationsgruppe zu kommen sowie allgemein neue methodologische und modelltheoretische Beiträge zur Remigrationsforschung und den damit verbundenen Inklusions-/Exklusionsfragen zu leisten.
