Book Description
En Europa la migración laboral ha hecho un aporte fundamental al desarrollo industrial y económico, y ha sido un factor estratégico determinante de las transformaciones de los mercados laborales y de las formas de producción. En la primera década del siglo XXI esta migración aumentó en todo el mundo sin que se hayan producido procesos de reconocimiento político o social. La migración laboral en Europa, obra de Fabiola Pardo -del Área de Conflicto y Dinámica Social del Centro de Investigación en Dinámica Social (CIDS), Facultad de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas- examina y evidencia el rol de los trabajadores migrantes en el desarrollo de las economías y de los mercados laborales en la Unión Europea, con un acercamiento al caso de los latinoamericanos en España. Sobre la base de investigaciones en este campo, se realiza un análisis histórico, teórico y político de la migración laboral y se destacan tanto las coyunturas que la determinan como las políticas que han estructurado su incorporación en las dinámicas laborales de los países receptores. Con este soporte teórico y el trabajo de campo en España, se analiza la integración de los trabajadores latinoamericanos en el mercado laboral y en la sociedad, a partir de los diferentes momentos de llegada, su composición, las políticas en curso y los efectos de la crisis económica del año 2008 en las condiciones sociales, laborales y de movilidad transnacional de los migrantes. "Este nuevo libro de Fabiola Pardo complementa su anterior publicación sobre procesos de integración de colombianos en Ámsterdam, Londres y Madrid (2012), pero desde un ángulo nuevo. En este caso, la autora nos ofrece un más que necesario análisis del papel que juegan las migraciones laborales en el contexto europeo. Además de incluir una perspectiva histórica y teórica en la primera parte del libro, la segunda parte se centra en desgranar con detalle qué ha sucedido desde comienzos de la crisis económica y financiera en 2008, centrándose en el caso de la migración latinoamericana en España. El texto concluye con una discusión interesante sobre las implicaciones geopolíticas de los nuevos movimientos migratorios que se están dando dentro de Europa".

ISBN: 1781951470
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
The highly unique International Handbook on Gender, Migration and Transnationalism represents a state-of-the-art review of the critical importance of the links between gender and migration in a globalizing world. It draws on original, largely field-based contributions by authors across a range of disciplinary provenances worldwide. This unprecedented and ambitious Handbook addresses core debates on issues of gender, migration, transnationalism and development from a migrationdevelopment nexus. Using an analytical approach, it explores the influence of global changes namely the analysis of transnational migration flows from the perspective of the articulation of production and reproduction chains. Particular attention is paid to so-called global care chains with new models developed around the emerging trends played out by women in contemporary mobility flows. This path-breaking Handbook will provide a thought-provoking read for a multidisciplinary audience of academics, researchers and students of social science disciplines encompassing: economics, sociology, geography, demography, political science and political sociology, migration studies, family and gender studies and labour markets. The Handbook will also be of major interest to and importance for local and national governments, international agencies and their policymakers and administrators.

Challenging the Paradoxes of Integration Policies
Author: Fabiola Pardo
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783319877181
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book traces Latin American migration to Europe since the 1970s. Focusing on Amsterdam, London, and Madrid, it examines the policies of integration in a comparative perspective that takes into account transnational, national, regional and local levels. It examines the entire mechanism that Latin American migrants confront in the European cities they settle, and provides readers with a theoretical framework on integration that addresses the concepts of multiculturalism, interculturality, transculturality and transnationalism. This work is based on rich qualitative data from in-depth interviews, focus groups and participant observation complemented by a substantial documentary and legislative analysis. It reveals that current policies are limited and migrants are excluded in most of the formal venues for integration. In addition, the book shows the many ways that migrants negotiate the constraints and imperatives of integration. In Western Europe today, immigrants are largely assuming the entire responsibility of their integration. This book provides readers with much needed insight into why European integration policies are not responding to the needs of immigrants nor to society as a whole.

International Migration in the Age of Crisis and Globalization
Author: Andrés Solimano
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139490214
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The international mobility of people and elites is a main feature of the global economy of today. Immigration augments the labor force in receiving countries and provides many of the bodies and minds that are essential to any vibrant economy. This book is based on a blend of theory, varied country examples, and rich historical material ranging from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twenty-first century. It discusses the conceptual underpinnings of the push and pull factors of current migration waves and their impacts for development on the source and receiving countries. The analysis reviews the historical context under which various migration experiences have taken place - both in periods of internationalism and nationalism - in order to contribute to debates on the desirability of and tensions and costs involved in the current process of international migration.

Spaces of Governmentality
Author: Martina Tazzioli
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1783481056
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Much work has been done on the causes and characteristics of the Arab Spring, but relatively little research has examined the political and spatial consequences that have developed following the uprisings. This book engages with the ways in which spaces in Southern Europe and Northern Africa have been negotiated and transformed by migrants in the wake of the uprisings, showing that their struggles are a continuation of their political movement. Drawing on an innovative countermapping approach, based on radical cartography, Martina Tazzioli illustrates the spatial upheavals caused by migration in the Mediterranean and the transformations created by migration controls applied by European nations. With critical insight on the application of Foucault’s concept of governmentality to migration studies, exploration of a reconfigured theory of autonomy of migration and discussion of the politics of invisibility that underpins migration, this book sheds new light on the enduring struggles that follow the Arab Spring.

The Demographic Dividend
Author: David Bloom
Publisher: Rand Corporation
ISBN: 0833033735
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.

Clandestine Crossings
Author: David Spener
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 0801460395
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
Clandestine Crossings delivers an in-depth description and analysis of the experiences of working-class Mexican migrants at the beginning of the twenty-first century as they enter the United States surreptitiously with the help of paid guides known as coyotes. Drawing on ethnographic observations of crossing conditions in the borderlands of South Texas, as well as interviews with migrants, coyotes, and border officials, Spener details how migrants and coyotes work together to evade apprehension by U.S. law enforcement authorities as they cross the border. In so doing, he seeks to dispel many of the myths that misinform public debate about undocumented immigration to the United States. The hiring of a coyote, Spener argues, is one of the principal strategies that Mexican migrants have developed in response to intensified U.S. border enforcement. Although this strategy is typically portrayed in the press as a sinister organized-crime phenomenon, Spener argues that it is better understood as the resistance of working-class Mexicans to an economic model and set of immigration policies in North America that increasingly resemble an apartheid system. In the absence of adequate employment opportunities in Mexico and legal mechanisms for them to work in the United States, migrants and coyotes draw on their social connections and cultural knowledge to stage successful border crossings in spite of the ever greater dangers placed in their path by government authorities.
