▼ Immigration reform stands as perhaps the most heated domestic issue dating back to the 1980s. The existing literature provides a well-documented foundation on the likely determinants of attitudes towards
immigration policy in the U.S. This research extends the analysis to encompass the growing issue of illegal
immigration by (1) incorporating recent studies concerning the characteristics of illegal immigrants to focus the analysis on actual demographic trends of the migrant population, and (2) utilizing the 2004 General Social Survey data which allow for a definitive assessment of attitudes with respect to illegal
immigration policy in contrast to general
immigration policy. The thesis seeks to answer the question, Do the determinants of opinion towards
immigration policy in general hold for issues of illegal
immigration? Similarly, are certain factors more pronounced when addressing illegal
immigration? Findings suggest that attitudes towards general versus illegal
immigration policies vary in important ways with respect to demographic, socioeconomic, geographic, and political variables.

▼ The objectives of this study are to provide a phenomenological understanding of the impact of the relationships between people (in this case, immigrants) and their gardens, and to gain a better understanding of how the immigrant experience and gardening are connected. Feminist research methodology guided the study, using semi-structured interviews as a means to interact with participants. There are several reasons, both environmental and psycho-social, why gardening is beneficial. Some reasons include improved nutrition, lower costs for produce, enhancement of the environment, improved health through exercise, and stress reduction. Furthermore gardens create space for social engagement and provide means for individuals, especially those not native to an area, to maintain parts of their culture through recreating familiar landscapes and cultivating culturally-relevant foods. Finally, this research seeks to destabalize the culture/nature binary by illustrating how the two are connected and similar, in the sense that they can both be constructed and performed.

Social capital, multicultural policies, and the welfare state: examining the determinants of immigrant integration.

▼ Although many studies of the processes through which immigrants become integrated into their host societies have emphasized social capital and trust, they have tended to do so only with regard to the immigrant groups themselves; that is, they have examined the effects of social capital and trust within immigrant groups. A theory is offered that posits a positive contextual effect for the aggregate-level social capital and trust existing in the host societies in which the immigrant groups find themselves embedded. This effect is argued to exist independently of the social capital stores of the immigrant groups in question. In order to empirically test this theory (as well as to contribute to rectifying the paucity of empirical studies on integration more generally), a novel measurement of immigrant integration is developed based on the conceptualization of integration as the process by which immigrant populations become similar to the native-born with respect to certain indicators. In order to avoid common statistical assumptions regarding data-generating processes and functional forms, this measurement is generated using a neural network. Alternative hypotheses regarding multicultural policies, welfare state expansiveness, and macroeconomic and geographic determinants are developed and evaluated. A cross-national analysis provides support for the primary hypothesis, but can only be regarded as suggestive due to its data limitations. An analysis across the US states is undertaken to expand the number of available data points and thus enhance the validity of the statistical inferences drawn. In a multilevel analysis across all state-groups, the macroeconomic and geographic controls outperform the other structural variables, as well as social capital. A case study of the Mexico-born in the US, however, eliminates outliers and shows that social capital does indeed have a positive and significant effect even in the presence of the control variables. Implications for current theoretical understanding and policymaking and suggestions for future research are then discussed in light of these findings.

Becoming "American": race, class, gender, and assimilation ideologies in young adult Mexican immigrant fiction.

▼ This dissertation explores representations of race, class, gender and ideologies of assimilation in thirty-two young adult novels involving the Mexican immigrant experience published from 1953-2009. The study draws upon several theories, but is primarily located within the paradigm of critical Marxist educational, cultural, and literary theories including the sociology of school knowledge and critical multiculturalism based upon the work of Raymond Williams, Michael Apple, Joel Taxel, Stephen May and Christine Sleeter. I also draw upon theories of assimilation throughout U.S. history such as e pluribus unum, the melting pot, multiculturalism, transnationalism, and hybridity, with emphasis upon the work of Homi Bhabha that conceptualizes cultural hybridity as spaces of cultural negotiation and rearticulation. To provide further context for the study, I also review representations of Mexican Americans in larger American culture via historical accounts, school textbooks, and the entertainment media of television and film. I address the following research questions: What ideologies of assimilation are suggested in young adult contemporary fiction involving the Mexican immigrant experience? How do they change (or not change) over time? How do the intersections of assimilation ideologies and representations of ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and gender in young adult contemporary fiction change (or not change) over time?
To analyze the texts, I used a qualitative methodology of literary content analysis. Information from the novels was grouped into the following self-constructed categories: Issues of story (setting, narration, protagonist ethnicity/gender, author ethnicity/gender); representations of ethnicity (physical descriptions, characterizations, relationship to those outside of culture); representations of socioeconomic status (occupations, living conditions); representations of gender (roles, attitudes, descriptions); issues of language (inclusion, accuracy); issues of cultural identity; references to agency and position; references to Mexican American history.
It was found that the novels fall into four ideological categories: assimilation as unattainable, as conformity, as adaptation/bicultural practice, and as hybridity. Although earlier publications (1950s-1970s) largely reflected ideologies of unattainability or conformity, some later publications also continued to reflect these ideologies, including the most recent title of the sample (2009). Mexican Americans were often stereotyped within these ideologies, reflecting a selective tradition. Novels suggested multiple ideologies, often reflected through secondary characters.

▼ The growth of the Latino population in the U.S. raises a series of issues regarding the political implications of Latino presence in the U.S. Among these are considerations of the disenfranchised nature of a large component of the Latino voting age population and the potential economic and political “threat” Latino growth poses to the majority population. I consider the impact of Latino presence on the legislative action of members of the U.S. House, testing for the possibility that there exists a potential “threat relationship,” similar to that found by V.O. Key in the pre-Voting Rights Act South, between Latino context and action on
immigration issues.This study tests whether larger proportions of Latinos in a House district may be positively related to increased legislative hostility on the part of representation from that district. Through polynomial and linear regression analysis, our results indicate that district Latino context does not encourage restrictionism. However, other semblances of a threat relationship may persist.

▼ The purpose of this study was to describe and analyze daily physical activity experiences and interactions in sport contexts of first- and one-and-a-half-generation Korean immigrants in the metropolitan Atlanta area in the United States. First-generation Korean immigrants are of particular interest in this study because their
immigration at older ages influenced subsequent changes in their sport participation and sport behavior, and their length of stay in the United States is long enough to compare their experiences of both cultures. This study was guided by an interpretive qualitative approach, and symbolic interactionism provided the theoretical framework for data collection, analysis, and interpretation throughout this study. Fourteen participants (eight males and six females) were chosen by means of purposeful sampling, and in-depth interviews with the participants, ages between 18 and 54, who have lived in the United States at least 10 years, were conducted over a two-month period and were guided by pre-determined interview protocol. Participant observation, semi-structured in-depth interviews with each participant, and document review were used; however, the interviews were the primary source for data collection. The grounded theory method of constant comparative analysis was employed for the data analysis. The majority of immigrants experienced the low levels of physical activity participation during the initial adaptation period; however, the findings from the data analysis reveal an increased level of participation in various types of physical activities among the participants during the first post-settlement period. The findings of this study also suggest that the roles of the physical activity participation among Korean immigrants were three-fold: They chose one of the traditional paths in the adaptation process, either acculturating to the mainstream society or preserving their own ethnic identity, or they followed the distinct route in the adaptation process, assimilating to their own sub-culture in the United States. In conclusion, the roles of physical activity participation in the adaptation process and the internal dynamics of the Korean immigrant community are quite complex, and the Korean immigrants’ participation in physical activities helps in reinforcing their ethnic identity and strengthening ties with other members of their ethnic community.

La France et les enfants d'immigrés : une "crise du don" : France and the children from immigration : a « crisis of the gift ».

▼ La relation entre la France et les enfants d’immigrés peut être caractérisée par une « crise du don » jouant sur un plan symbolique et mettant en scène deux représentations opposées : celle d’une France qui se présente comme une créancière absolue ; celle des enfants d’immigrés pour qui c’est au contraire la France qui est en dette. Dans ce contexte, où chaque partie pense avoir plus donné que reçu, le don, ciment social sur lequel est bâtie chaque société, n’apparaît plus possible. Face au regard porté par une partie de la société française sur les enfants d’immigrés, qui s’apparente à ce que nous appelons le « surendettement symbolique », il y a différentes formes de réponses possibles, comme l’acception du surendettement, ou au contraire sa contestation. Cette thèse s’intéresse plus particulièrement à la réponse du ressentiment, qui aboutit au renversement du surendettement symbolique, et donc à la représentation d’une France accablée par une dette insolvable. C’est ce positionnement particulier qui alimente la « crise du don » et cristallise les rapports sociaux dans les quartiers populaires et d’immigration. Conceptuellement, seul un événement tel que le pardon peut permettre de sortir de cette « crise du don ». Chercher à cacher les offenses, ou à les travestir en bonne œuvre, conduira ceux qui estiment en être les victimes à les déterrer, et au combat pour leur reconnaissance. Le pardon passe par une véritable reconnaissance des torts de la part de l’offenseur. L’offensé pourra, dans un second temps, libérer l’offenseur de sa dette en pardonnant. L’établissement de rapports sociaux libérés des contentieux du passé sera alors à nouveau possible.
The relationship between France and the children from immigration can be characterized by a “Crisis of the Gift”, playing at a symbolic level and staging two opposed representations: One where France is presenting itself as an absolute creditor; One where the children from immigration think instead that France is in debt. In this context where each party thinks it has given more than it has received, the Gift, which is the social cement on which every Society is built, does not appear to be possible.In front of the way some of the French Society look at those children, which seems like what we will call “the symbolic unsustainable debt”, there are different forms of possible answers, like accepting, or opposed to it, challenging it. This thesis is focused primarily on the response to the resentment that leads to the reversal of the symbolic unsustainable debt, and thus to the representation of a France overwhelmed by an unsustainable debt. It is this particular positioning that feeds the “crisis of the Gift” and crystallizes the social relations in the popular neighborhoods where the immigrants live.Conceptually, only an event such as forgiveness can lead to the end that “crisis of the Gift”. Trying to hide the offences, or distorting them into charity will lead the ones who believe to be the victims, to dig them out and to flight for their recognition. Forgiveness…

▼ This thesis aimed to observe people’s use of language when constructing views on immigrants. This was done by collecting people’s opinions on
immigration using a one-to-one semi-structured interview technique. This study used discourse analysis to examine the use of linguistic techniques in language when constructing opinions on immigrants. This thesis adopted an additional approach by comparing two generations’ use of language when constructing opinions on
immigration, to determine similarities or differences in their techniques. Examination of the interview transcripts was conducted using discourse analysis, which is most related to that used in discursive psychology (Potter & Edwards, 2001). From this, three themes were observed and the linguistic features used to construct these themes were identified. The first theme identified was playing down prejudice, and the use of the word just, modification and distancing self were all identified as linguistic techniques used in constructing this theme. The second theme was the prioritisation of the host country, and repetition, justification and presenting their opinions as imperatives were linguistic features used to construct this theme. The third theme was presenting immigrants negatively and the linguistic features present were stereotypical attributes and use of quantification. To compare the two generations’ use of language when constructing their views on
immigration, responses to the question “in terms of prejudice views on immigrant groups, do you think that young people (like yourself) hold different views than older people (such as your grandparents)?” were analysed. This research observed no generation difference in the use of language to construct opinions on immigrants. The study concluded that through their use of language, when constructing views on immigrants, people are keen to play down or justify any prejudiced remarks or beliefs made in their speech.

▼ A growing literature on citizenship and legality
argues there is a link between exclusionary
immigration policies,
legal status assignment, and stratification in the United States.
Yet this link has rarely been tested directly. I test this link,
arguing that we can understand variation in economic incorporation
and inclusion with the concept of civic stratification, a
system of inequality in which the state selects immigrants into
different legal status categories, and then those categories
further stratify immigrants by conferring or blocking the rights
and resources necessary for accessing and succeeding in the labor
market. I use national and longitudinal data to address three
questions: (1) is there a civic stratification hierarchy?; (2) to
what extent do immigrants’ positions in the civic stratification
hierarchy explain variation in employment and occupational
position?; and (3) does any association between legal status and
employment and occupational position persist over time? I find
evidence of a civic stratification hierarchy that explains
variation in both employment and occupational position at two
points in time. Once accounting for the components of civic
stratification, most differences between legal status categories
dissipate with respect to employment over time. However, there
remain significant differences between legal status categories in
occupational position over time, with previously unauthorized
immigrants most excluded, followed by immigrants with previous
family reunification status, then refugee status, diversity visa
status, and finally employment visa status.

▼ Two important social transformations have occurred
since the 1960's: The rise of the black middle class and the influx
of immigrants from Latin, America, Asia and Africa. The cultural
and economic outcomes for first and second-generation West Indian
immigrants are often linked to the culture and neighborhoods of the
black poor/underclass. However, we understand little about the ways
in which the black middle class is a potential pathway of
integration for today's immigrants. This dissertation investigates
the social identities and residential patterns of select black
immigrants in the middle class, Haitians and Jamaicans, and
compares them to the African American middle class in Queens and
Long Island, New York. I draw from the literature on social
inequality and immigrant incorporation in order to analyze the ways
in which blacks in the middle class are forming their racial and
class identities and how this process differs across space. This
dissertation uses qualitative interviews, participant observations
and census data in order to unpack the cultural lives of black
ethnics and the socioeconomic landscape of their neighborhoods.
Findings demonstrate that ethnicity, generation and space matter in
the identity formation of black middle class ethnics. The African
American middle class has a place specific culture of mobility,
which is partially adopted by the Haitian and Jamaican middle
class. The racial and class identity convergence between these
groups provides key evidence that the African American middle class
is a potential pathway of socio-cultural and economic integration
for today's immigrants. These findings demonstrate that the
segmented assimilation theoretical framework should incorporate the
black middle class into its paradigm. This research speaks to the
sociological debates on the socioeconomic incorporation of today's
immigrants and the racial and ethnic relations between new and old
minorities.

Doing Life Together in the House of the Lord: Trust,

▼ This dissertation is about the complex connections
between religious faith and migrant inclusion, as experienced by
African Pentecostal Christians living in the United Kingdom (UK).
The dissertation traces the ways in which African Pentecostals
experienced the social and material processes entailed in their
migration as aspects of their relationship with God. I suggest that
migration led to the formation of new relationships of intimacy and
reciprocity with fellow migrant Christians; relationships that
simultaneously became a way of performing and embodying a felt
sense of trust in the love, care, and authority of God. Similarly,
as adherents of the so-called ‘prosperity gospel’, African
Pentecostals also experienced their material well-being and
security – and especially the obtainment of
immigration papers,
secure work and good social relationships with those near and far –
as further evidence of the intervention of God. The dissertation
explores the effects of these processes of trust-making, both in
terms of the subjective experiences of African Pentecostals and in
terms of the wider social, economic and political inclusion of
African Pentecostals in the UK. I argue that the close connection
between trust in others and trust in God led to ambivalent and
contradictory experiences of inclusion for Africans. On the one
hand, the connection between social trust and religious trust had
the potential to produce intimacies between church members that
were not only of pragmatic value but that also provided a basis for
sentiments of belonging and meaningful interactions across ethnic
boundaries. Similarly, religious faith provided the grounds upon
which Africans made moral claims to belonging and, crucially, to
being deserving of full inclusion. On the other hand, this
interdependence between worldly trust and divine trust was risky:
it meant that disappointments in the social and material world had
the potential to cast doubt on the reality of God. This meant that
relationships with fellow believers were often tainted by a
profound sense of risk, uncertainty and even danger. Moreover, it
meant that Pentecostals often blamed themselves when facing
disappointments in their material circumstances, something that
could also lead to sentiments of moral failure and
shame.

▼ The aim of this dissertation is too examine the role
that ethnic Mexican labor played in fashioning the Northwest into
one of the most productive regions in the country after the Second
World War. Expanding water-development projects, accelerated timber
harvests, and a booming agricultural sector owe their success in
large part to the labor of braceros, Tejano migrants, and Mexican
immigrants, both documented and undocumented. This dissertation is
a social, cultural, and political history of the lives of ethnic
Mexicans in the Northwest and examines their struggles against
racism and labor exploitation. A crucial component of that struggle
is the history of the Piñeros y Campesinos Unidos Noroeste
(Northwest Treeplanters and Farm Workers United), known by their
Spanish acronym PCUN (pronounced "Pe-Coon"). The reforestation,
nursery, and farm workers union's goal is to empower workers and
eliminate systematic oppression and exploitation through collective
bargaining, boycotts, legislative campaigns, and most importantly
immigrant organizing. PCUN challenges previous notions of the
unorganizable nature of undocumented workers long held by labor
unions, which have struggled with the issue of citizenship, labor
rights, and union organizing. Their commitment to organizing
undocumented and documented immigrants make PCUN a leader among
peers who are rethinking the relationship between farm work and
immigrant rights.

▼ Between 1960 and 2000 the percentage of the
United States population classified as immigrants increased from
approximately 6% to 12%. In this dissertation I analyze the effects
of this increased
immigration on both native educational choices as
well as on native population changes. In Chapter 1, I use
a panel of school districts across the United States to investigate
whether increased immigrant presence in U.S. public school
districts between 1990 and 2000 has led to increases in native
private school enrollment. Results show that native flight to
private schools due to increased immigrant presence in public
schools is largely driven by the white population; an additional 10
immigrants in public schools leads to approximately 2 additional
white natives enrolled in private schools. While Chapter 1 focuses
on outcomes measured at the school district level, it is important
to understand which schools are most likely to be impacted by this
flight within a school district. Chapter 2 answers this question by
focusing on native flight from individual public and private
schools in the state of Florida between 2001 and 2007. Analysis at
the individual school level confirms native flight is driven by
white natives and is most prevalent in public schools that are
located in close proximity to a private school. Results suggest
that an additional 4 white students enroll in a particular private
school for every 5 additional immigrant children who enroll in the
5 closest public schools to that private school. Chapter
3 investigates the short-run population changes of native
individuals to an increase in the immigrant population in a
metropolitan area. Using annual level population totals for
approximately 150 metropolitan areas from 2000-2009, I estimate
that an additional immigrant leads to an increase in the low-skill
native population of approximately 0.5 to 0.8 individuals in that
current year. Results also show that high skill native populations
decrease as immigrant inflows increase to a given metropolitan
area.

The effects of migrant residential patterns on anti-migrant political action by majority natives in the welfare state: the case of Sweden examined at the sub-national level.

▼ The aim of this research is to elucidate the effects of migrant residential settlement patterns on the level of anti-migrant political action taken by ethnic natives within an advanced industrial democracy. I examine these effects via event data I collect at the sub-national (county) level from 1998-2014 within a comprehensive welfare state: Sweden. Although attitudes in Sweden towards migrants have been much more benign than in many other Western European countries over the past several years, the level of anti-migrant action within Sweden has nonetheless been on the increase, and to quite varying degrees within the country. Hence, despite the consistent positive attitudes towards migrants that Swedes report, ethnocentric political action has found room for expression. This gives rise to the research question: What explains the variation in the levels of anti-migrant political action within an advanced democracy?
The main theory driving this research draws on group contact and conflict theory – and specifically the “halo effect” of the latter, which posits that when groups of native residents live in close physical proximity to groups of migrants, anti-migrant political action by natives will be higher. That is, greater segregation between migrant residents and native majority residents will results in greater levels of anti-migrant political action. Conversely, in areas where migrants are more evenly settled among majority native residents, anti-migrant political action will be less likely to occur – despite the absolute number of migrants living in the area. Residential settlement patterns of migrants therefore play a key role in driving native political action against perceived migrants.
Whether due to conflict or economic necessity, migration into advanced industrial democracies and concomitant levels of diversity will continue to grow. The implications of this research can be extrapolated to other advanced democracies, and indicate that the number of migrants coming into a country is not as important for their integration – and for social and political stability – as where it is that they settle. Furthermore, institutions can have a significant role in managing the challenges that increasing diversity poses, and these effects are best observed at the sub-national level where the policy implementations and manifestations occur.

▼ The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of undocumented
immigration on the United States, specifically the economic implications they may carry and the government effectiveness in managing this population. Utilizing the method of qualitative content analysis, this study examined the various aspects of the U.S. economy affected by this population and the nation's past and current
immigration policies. The research found the undocumented population to be an expense on the host economy through their use of social and public services, with expenses even higher in the Southwest Border States. It is important to note, however, that there are benefits to providing these services. In addition amnesty-type policies were shown to be ineffective at managing the population due to various deficiencies. The nation's past experience with the
Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA) is a strong example.

▼ La polygamie pose à la fois et tacitement, par son existence et ses actions symboliques, et explicitement, par le discours et les théories qu’elle produits ou auxquelles elle donne lieu, à un certain nombre de questions qui sont parmi les plus importantes de mon étude des sciences sociales, et, pour certaines, tout à fait nouvelles. Cette institution de révolte contre une forme particulière de violence symbolique, outre qu’elle fait exister des objets d’analyse nouveaux , met en question très profondément l’ordre symbolique en vigueur et pose de manière tout à fait radicale la question des fondements de cet ordre et des conditions d’une mobilisation réussie en vue de le subvenir, comme le conçoit Pierre Bourdieu. La forme particulière de domination symbolique dont sont victimes les femmes en couples polygames chez les Punu, frappées d’un stigmate qui, à la différence de la couleur de la peau ou de leur féminité, peut être cachée ou (affichée), s’impose à travers des actes collectifs de catégorisation qui font exister des différences significatives , négativement marquées, et par là, des groupes, des catégories sociales stigmatisées. Comme dans certaines espèces de racisme, elle prend en ce cas la forme d’un déni d’existence publique, visible. L’oppression comme « invisibilisation » se traduit par un refus de l’existence légitime, publique, c’est-à-dire connue et reconnue, notamment par le droit, et par une stigmatisation qui n’apparait jamais aussi clairement que lorsque le mouvement revendique la visibilité. Je le rappelle alors explicitement à la « discrétion » ou à la dissimulation qu’elle est ordinairement obligé de s’imposer.
Polygamy, both tacitly because of its existence and its symbolical action, and explicitly, through the speeches and the views it expresses or it gives rise to, raises a certain number of queries which are among the most important ones of my social sciences survey and, as far as some of them are concerned, completely new. This institution of revolt against a particular form of symbolic violence, besides the fact that it gives rise to new analysis subjects, thoroughly questions the current symbolic order and completely raises the query of the foundations of this order and of conditions of a successful mobilization in order to support it. The particular form of symbolic domination whose victims are the women in polygamous couples, struck by a mark which, unlike the colour of the skin or femininity, can be hidden or displayed , is obvious through group actions of categorization which give rise to significant differences, negatively marked , and consequently to marked groups and social categories. Like in some kinds of racism, it takes the form of a denial of public existence, which is visible.

▼ La sécurité intérieure est une exigence indispensable de l’exercice des libertés et des droits. Elle est au centre des préoccupations des gouvernants et des gouvernés. Dès lors, l’immigration clandestine, phénomène à cause multiple, à énormément évolué, tant par son ampleur que par sa nature, nécessitant, dans le respect des droits de l’homme, la mise en place d’une politique ambitieuse. Pour parer aux menaces ou aux manifestations de l’immigration clandestine, les législateurs français et émiriens sont venus reformuler le caractère prioritaire des orientations générales en matière de sécurité intérieure et de justice. Elles tournent autour des réformes constitutionnelles, basées sur une profonde collaboration entre les intervenants en matière de sécurité intérieure, mais aussi d’une envie de leur donner un cadre administratif et juridique modernisé. Dans ce cadre, il faut comprendre la variété des aspects discursives, l'hétérogénéité des agencements concrets (discours des droits de l'Homme…) et l'articulation des rapports de savoir et de pouvoir. Il faut également suivre la transversalité discursive de la figure que prend ce phénomène à travers tous ces tours et détours et les liens de sens qu'elle entretient avec les différentes difficultés structurelles, ainsi qu'avec la figure que prend la souveraineté de l’État lui-même. Il faut comprendre les raisons du passage d'un discours qui se voulait rassurant et condescendant à un discours qui se veut troublant et inquiétant, basé sur la montée des insécurités liées au phénomène de l’immigration clandestine et fragilisant ainsi la sécurité intérieure.
Homeland Security is an essential requirement for the exercise of freedoms and rights. It is central to the concerns of the governors and the governed. Therefore, illegal immigration phenomenon multiple cause, changed dramatically, both in its scale and nature, requiring, in respect for human rights, the establishment of an ambitious policy. To counter threats or demonstrations of illegal immigration, French and Emirati legislators came reformulate the priority of general guidelines for internal security and justice. They revolve around constitutional reforms, based on a deep collaboration between stakeholders in the field of internal security, but also a desire to give them a legal and administrative framework modernized. In this context, one must understand the variety of discursive aspects, the heterogeneity of concrete arrangements (discourse of human rights ...) and the joint reports of knowledge and power. It should also follow the discursive cross the figure that takes this phenomenon through all these twists and turns and the sense that it maintains links with the various structural problems, as well as the figure that takes the state sovereignty itself. We must understand the reasons for the passage of a speech that was meant reassuring and condescending speech that wants troubling and disturbing, based on the rise of the insecurities related to the phenomenon of illegal immigration and thus weakening internal…

▼ Pour pouvoir comprendre le virage entrepris dans les années 1990 en France et 2000 en Allemagne à travers l’introduction des catégories « immigrés » et « Personen mit Migrationshintergrund », il faut aller chercher dans l’histoire de la statistique ce qui avait tenu lieu de classification principale de la population, en lieu et place des nouvelles catégories inventées au tournant des XXe et XXIe siècles : la nationalité, donc, ainsi que la langue et la « race » dans certains contextes particuliers. Et puis il fallait tester une hypothèse : puisque ce n’était pas un changement d’ordre quantitatif (les mouvements migratoires ont sur la période qui nous intéresse toujours étaient importants quantitativement) qui était à l’origine de ce tournant, quel sort était réservé aux statistiques des migrations auparavant ? Comment est-on passé d’un système de classification de la population basé sur le principe de nationalité à un système de classification basé sur le principe migratoire ? Il fallait donc reconstruire l’évolution conjointe et parallèle de ces deux principes, pour identifier les moments où ceuxci sont entrés en collision, se sont croisés, pour de nouveau s’éloigner, et, aujourd’hui, être de nouveau réunis. Ces reconstructions historiques d’objets bien évidemment hétérogènes n’ont de sens qu’à la lumière de leur union actuelle, d’où est issue l’énigme à l’origine de cette recherche. Ainsi, il s’agissait pour moi de pouvoir, sur le temps long et sur des terrains différents, rechercher les différentes pratiques statistiques de construction de cet « Autre », terme « fourre-tout » qui n’a d’autre signification que celles que lui donnent les différents acteurs aux différentes périodes étudiées dans cette thèse. L’altérité est une démarche, une intuition – celle que ces pratiques, aussi diverses soient-elles, peuvent être analysées dans le cadre d’un même travail académique et être ainsi mises en contact. En tant que tertium comparationis, ce terme permet de rassembler des chantiers extrêmement divers qu’il ne serait pas possible de comparer autrement. Ce qui implique, dans le même temps, de ne pas être dupe du fait que ce terme recouvrait des réalités complètement opposées et diverses en fonction des périodes et des pays étudiées. La première partie analyse le changement qui a eu lieu dans les années 1990-2000 dans la manière de catégoriser statistiquement migration et nationalité en France et en Allemagne. Peut-on parler d’une déinstitutionnalisation du principe classificatoire de la nationalité ? La deuxième partie reconstruit sur la période 1880-1920 césures et continuités dans les catégories utilisées dans l’Empire français (incluant la France métropolitaine) et l’Empire allemand pour classer la population et mesurer les migrations. La troisième partie compare systématiquement les résultats empiriques de la première et la deuxième partie, pour les deux périodes et les deux pays, afin de tirer des conclusions générales et théoriques sur les mécanismes de catégorisations statistiques.

▼ A surge of sub-federal
immigration laws have been enacted since the late 2000s. Most of previous studies have focused on how these laws affect the local economy. This study examines how the local economy and demographic composition affect whether local governments sign
immigration laws. Furthermore, given labor shortages in agriculture due to
immigration laws, we examine how sub-federal
immigration laws affect the number of H-2A visa applications, which is a tool for bringing foreign seasonal agricultural workers in the U.S. We find that per capita unemployment compensation insurance, per capita total number of jobs, and the share of Hispanic male population to total male population within a county are positively associated with whether a local government chooses to sign
immigration laws. In addition, we find that the enactment of state-wide
immigration laws decrease H-2A visa applications.

▼ For immigrants in the United States, there are numerous factors, including education, language, and ethnicity, influencing how they adapt. In this thesis, I examine the roles religious participation serves for African immigrants as they adapt. Three roles were considered: the provision of basic needs assistance, development of social networks and capital, and spiritual and emotional benefits. To determine these functions, African immigrants in Georgia were interviewed and surveyed. Primarily, religion served as a source of spiritual and emotional benefits. There were some, although limited, social benefits from religious involvement. However, religious institutions were not a source of basic needs assistance. The functions religion serves may be a function of the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, such as language and education, of the immigrants. These roles may be filled through employment and family contacts. There are areas where assistance could be provided, such as
immigration status and cultural familiarity.

▼ The object of this Thesis is to analyze the phenomenon of immigration and itsconsequences on Greek society, using as a point of reference the five-year conflictcycle that emerged in the neighborhood of Aghios Pandeleimonas , located at the verycenter of the Greek Capital, Athens.In the following pages, the immigration issue is treated theoretically as aphenomenon in development and analyzed in three concentric circles as concernsplace scale –global, national, and local.In Chapter 1, we are dealing with immigration as an issue vis-a-vis globalization,and generally, the tremendous transformation it underwent apropos its nature, itscharacteristics, its scope and scale in the context of modernity, capitalism, andwestern global dominance.Chapter 2 treats the phenomenon in relevance to Greece, especially in connectionwith the multiple socio-economic and cultural consequences of the variousimmigration waves that arrived in Greece since 1990.The third chapter presents a fieldwork qualitative research in AghiosPandeleimonas, on the relation between immigration, multiculturalism and theescalating social tensions that emerged in the neighborhood.
Η παρούσα διατριβή έχει ως αντικείμενο το μεταναστευτικό φαινόμενο και τιςεπιπτώσεις του στην ελληνική κοινωνία, και τις εξετάζει χρησιμοποιώντας ως σημείοαναφοράς τις σχέσεις και τις αντιθέσεις που ξέσπασαν σε μια γειτονιά τουμητροπολιτικού κέντρου της Αθήνας, κατά την πενταετία 2008-2013.Η αναλυτική προσέγγιση ξεδιπλώνεται μέσα από ένα ερμηνευτικό σχήμα πουεξελίσσεται σε ομόκεντρους κύκλους. Στον κάθε έναν από αυτούς αναλύεται τοφαινόμενο σε παγκόσμιο, εθνικό, και σε τοπικό πεδίο, αντίστοιχα.Στο κεφάλαιο 1, αναλύεται η διεθνής διάσταση του φαινομένου, η εξέλιξή τουστους νεώτερους χρόνους, η σχέση του με την παγκοσμιοποίηση, τα χαρακτηριστικάκαι η φυσιογνωμία που αυτό διαμορφώνει στο πλαίσιό της. Μέσα από την ανάλυσητων δύο κύκλων της παγκοσμιοποίησης (τέλη 19 ου - αρχές 20 ου αιώνα / 1980 –σήμερα) γίνεται η απόπειρα δημιουργίας ενός ερμηνευτικού σχήματος πουαποτυπώνει τις λειτουργίες και τις συνέπειες του μεταναστευτικού φαινομένου στονσύγχρονο κόσμο.Στο κεφάλαιο 2 εξετάζονται οι ιδιαιτερότητες που εκδηλώνει το φαινόμενο τηςμετανάστευσης σε ό,τι αφορά στην ελληνική κοινωνία· αναλύονται τα κύματαμετανάστευσης που αφίχθησαν στην Ελλάδα από τις αρχές του 1990 μέχρι τηνδεκαετία του 2010, και αναδεικνύονται οι κοινωνικοοικονομικές τους επιδράσεις.Το μεταναστευτικό φαινόμενο στον Άγιο Παντελεήμονα Αχαρνών, μια περιοχήόπου κατεξοχήν εκδηλώθηκαν προβλήματα και αντιπαραθέσεις γύρω από τηνμετανάστευση, ιδίως μια ορισμένη περίοδο, είναι το αντικείμενο του κεφαλαίου 3.Στις σελίδες του, παρουσιάζονται τα αποτελέσματα μιας εξαετούς επιτόπιας έρευνας,που πραγματοποιήθηκε στην γειτονιά του αθηναϊκού κέντρου μεταξύ του 2008 καιτου 2013.

▼ This dissertation focuses on deportation practice throughout the 1920s and its social and cultural ramifications, arguing for the necessity of looking beyond the national policy frame to reveal the full significance of deportation in American society. The project highlights the intersecting ideas about race, political ideologies, civil liberties, criminology and pathology, and gender and sexual transgressions that informed the ways a variety of actors enacted deportation and negotiated its meaning on the ground. In so doing, it reveals how deportation served as a locus through which the politics of inclusion and exclusion was remapped. I illustrate what was behind the steady yearly rise in deportees, from 2,762 in 1920 to 16,631 by 1930, and in doing so, question the dominant periodization of deportation, which has often presented it as a series of hysterical, episodic outbursts of repression. Instead, I argue that it was a far more continuous and momentous process of social policing of the national body, and highlight the 1920s as a crucial period when exclusion and belonging were negotiated, not only through legislation, but in the streets, prisons, hospitals, asylums, and media discourse. As
immigration officials and local authorities sought to enforce abstract policies, they ran up against the reality of migrants as embodied individuals and communities, whose national and racial identities, sexuality, mental and physical health did not fit within neatly prescribed legal categories.
My dissertation is organized along the nesting scales of space at which deportation was practiced: global, national, local, institutional, and the body in detention and transportation. Each of these levels allows for a broader understanding of the intersecting points of authority and state control, ideology and pragmatics required for the building of an unprecedented deportation machinery. At the global level, I explore U.S. participation in international networks to coordinate deportations, the complexity of addressing shifting borders and imperial landscapes, discourses around other nation's deportation practices, and challenges posed by deportees whose trajectories did not fit simple migration patterns. The national level addresses the ways in which deportation served not only to create new delineations of potential citizen or undesirable migrant, but also to build the power of the state, even as it continued to be plagued by insufficient funding and struggles for greater consolidation. At the local level, I trace deportation into the nation’s heartland, arguing that while the law was federal, the enforcement was intensely shaped by local political agendas and police forces, ethnic and racial biases, and labor needs. The institutional chapter explores how the spaces where deportation operated – prisons, mental asylums, hospitals, juvenile reformatories – were all critical sites in the early twentieth century for the identification, surveillance, and punishment of individuals within hierarchies of racialized bodies. Finally, I go…

▼ ABSTRACT
In recent years, the Italian mass media pointed at some tensions between Chinese immigrants and Italian society. This situation is unique since other European countries which host Chinese communities did not encounter similar problems of coexistence. Evidently, there are some factors which provoke disharmony among the two groups.
This thesis analyzes integration of Chinese immigrants in Italian context. It aims to investigate and describe barriers hindering a successful integration between two communities. A qualitative method is employed in this research. The Study of integration theories first allowed determining the integration method that currently guides Italian integration policies. Statistical data and literature on the Chinese community in Italy disclosed that Chinese integration shall be distinguished in economic and social. While Chinese immigrants are well integrated economically, their social integration lags behind. Interviews allowed an understanding of the current situation. Finally, some recommendations are offered that may help alleviate tensions in mutual coexistence.

▼ This dissertation examines intermarriage across generations of the Mexican-origin population in order to better understand how this population is incorporating in U.S. society, and looks at parental migration status and parental nativity as factors that may impede or facilitate intermarriage incorporation. Using data from the Immigration and Intergenerational Mobility in Metropolitan Los Angeles (IIMMLA) survey the research shows that: the majority of intermarriages among the Mexican-origin population occur with non-Hispanic white spouses, third-generation Mexican-American women are significantly more likely to intermarry with non-Hispanic whites compared with third-generation Mexican-American men, the children of naturalized mothers are more likely to participate in intermarriage with the non-Hispanic white majority group compared with children who have at least one parent that is unauthorized/unknown, second-generation Mexican-origin children whose parents are of mixed-nativity are more likely to participate in intermarriage with non-Hispanic whites compared with those whose parents are foreign-born, and second-generation daughters whose mothers are foreign-born and fathers are native-born demonstrate the highest likelihood of intermarriage participation with the non-Hispanic white majority group compared with those whose parents are foreign-born. Overall the results indicate that the Mexican-origin population is incorporating in U.S. society and demonstrate some evidence of delayed incorporation. Parental migration status, parental nativity, generation, gender, and parent’s gender affect intermarriage incorporation among the Mexican-origin population.

▼ In my thesis I am going to point out why race relations are constant problems
all over the world. In the course of my writing I am going to narrow down the problem
to the British nation describing the historical background of race relations in Britain.
Following this I am going to look at what steps they took to handle this problem. The
problem-solving measures were, of course, in accordance with the EU ideas. So, law
and legislation aiming at this matter are going to be included.

▼ While Canadian immigration law has generally evolved incrementally, the law and policy around skilled immigrant selection has undergone generational shifts. The 1960s and 1970s saw the implementation of a human capital model, whereby immigrants were selected based on long-term adaptability to the labour market. This shift was accompanied by a broad national discussion on immigration. In the past decade, Canada has seen another generational shift away from the human capital model towards an employment-based model, where immigrants are chosen based on immediate employment prospects. The consequences of this shift are profound for our economy and society, but this change has not been accompanied by meaningful consultation or debate. Even more problematic has been the use of various lawmaking tools to limit debate and avoid judicial scrutiny. In contrasting recent changes and the accompanying lawmaking processes with the previous changes, this paper argues for a more comprehensive national conversation on immigration.

▼ The thesis explores the current state of library services in facilities in which U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) houses immigrant detainees, including (1) Bureau of Prison (BOP) facilities, (2) contracted detention facilities (CDF), (3) ICE-owned facilities (often called Service Processing Centers, or SPC's), and (4) Intergovernmental Service Agreements (IGSA) facilities. The study was based on a survey that was mailed to 356 facilities that detain immigrants by or on behalf of ICE. The results of the survey were used to determine the current status of library services in immigration detention facilities as well as to identify issues or problems in library services in immigration detention facilities and how they might be improved. The number of responses to the survey was limited, and future study is needed to obtain a better understanding of library services in immigration detention facilities.
