Irregular Migration in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (oPt): Socio-Political Perspectives

Authors Yasser SHALABI
Description
Covering the issue of irregular migration in the occupied Palestinian territories (oPt) must take into consideration: Palestinian refugees, the Palestinian labour force in the Israeli labour market and the illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank including Jerusalem. A number of interrelated factors contribute to Palestinian migration. Some of them are structural and are related to the historical and political conditions of Palestine, mainly occupation and the coercive displacement and uprooting and the absence of an independent state, while others can be considered policy-related and are linked to Israeli policies and measures in its occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip including Jerusalem from 1967 to the present day. Finally, there are some internal policy-related factors that relate to the economic and social policies adopted by the Palestinian National Authority (PNA). In general, we can argue that irregular migration is not evident as a phenomenon within the oPt, rather it characterizes displaced Palestinians. But a predominant phenomenon within the oPt are the Israeli settlements and Jewish settlers who live in the oPt as part of the Israeli occupation and Israeli control over the Palestinian territories.

Palestine: The demographic and economic dimension of migration

Authors Mustafa KHAWAJA
Description
Political and economic instability, the uncertainty of the future of the region, together with the importance of extended family relations have all been major determinants in the size and patterns of migration from Palestinian Territory. This paper focuses on recent trends in emigration and return migration from and to Palestine by presenting the main results of the Migration Survey implemented by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics in 2010, the first survey of its kind. In addition, the desire to emigrate among Palestinians will be explored. A final section will then be dedicated to inward migration, i.e. foreign-born Palestinians living on the West Bank and in Gaza Strip. L'instabilité politique et économique, l'incertitude de l'avenir de la région ainsi que l'importance des relations familières ont été des facteurs déterminants de migration en partance des territoires palestiniens. Cette analyse se concentre sur les tendances enregistrées au cours de la période récente du phénomène migratoire, et plus précisément s’agissant de l'émigration et la migration de retour de et vers la Palestine, à l’appui des résultats tirés de l'Enquête sur la Migration conduite par le Bureau central palestinien des statistiques en 2010 - la première enquête du genre. En outre, les facteurs déterminants la décision et la volonté d'émigrer parmi les Palestiniens feront l’objet d’une analyse circonstanciée. Une dernière section sera consacrée aux étrangers résidant dans la Bande de Gaza.

Labour Markets Performance and Migration Flows in Arab Mediterranean Countries: Determinants and Effects

Authors Philippe FARGUES, Iván MARTIN
Description
The main objective of this Study is to analyze the key labour market determinants of migration flows from selected Arab Mediterranean Countries (Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia and the Occupied Palestinian Territories) and the impact of outward migration on the labour markets of Arab Mediterranean Countries (AMCs). This has been done mainly on the basis of the evidence and analysis produced by the two Thematic Background Papers and the 8 National Background Papers commissioned for the Study. In turn, the National Background Papers are deliberately based on national statistical data sources: this makes comparability less straightforward, but has the merit of using original data available at the local level, where they are collected and generated.

Irregular Migration, Palestinian Case: Demographic and socioeconomic perspectives

Authors Ismail LUBBAD
Description
In this paper, particular attention is given to Palestinian refugees since they comprise over half of the world-wide Palestinian population. Demographic and economic data is used to study the impact of refugees on Palestinian society and the Palestinian economy. The paper has four main sections: along with a brief review of the literature, the first section provides definitions of irregular migration and Palestinian refugees. The second section offers a detailed look at demographics, while the third section examines socioeconomic characteristics. Both the second and third sections offer comparisons between refugees and non-refugees in the occupied Palestinian territories (oPt). A conclusion is given in the fourth and final section. The data shows a variance in socioeconomic characteristics between Palestinian refugees and non-refugees living in the oPt. Both refugees and non-refuges live in similar social and economic settings, thereby strengthening solidarity amongst Palestinians. The article concludes by noting that the increasing numbers of young Palestinians in the oPt along with a trend of local de-development and a lack of economic opportunities will drive more Palestinians to emigrate. For Palestinian refugees, this will give rise to a second, or even third, displacement.

The Vicious Cycle of Palestinian Workers in Israeli Settlements

Authors Asem KHALIL
Description
This paper is interested in presenting the status of rights of Palestinians working in Israeli settlements. Available reports suggest that these are subjected to discrimination, exploitation and human-rights violations both in terms of employment conditions and safety measures. In October 2007, the Israeli High Court ruled unanimously that Israeli labor laws applied equally to Israeli employers and their Palestinian West Bank workers. The decision signs a breakthrough for Palestinian workers, but raises questions with regards to the ruling’s enforcement and implications, given that Israeli settlements are illegal under international law. This paper argues that granting equal rights without discrimination based on nationality is an obligation for all states. Accordingly, it is inconceivable that we re-interpret international humanitarian law so as to allow the discrimination of local populations and the application of dual legal systems. Such a reinterpretation would lead to the system that was historically applied in several countries, i.e. “colonization,” and/or “apartheid,” and to the system that is currently applied in Israeli settlements.
