Abstract

Les migrations, les pratiques du voyage nous rappellent que le monde est en mouvement parce qu'elles constituent elles-mêmes un mouvement social. Il est nécessaire que les problématiques du développement prennent mieux en compte la compléxité des mobilités contemporaines, tant ces dernières relèvent des objectifs les plus directs de l'aide. Elles n'y parviendront qu'en s'émancipant des attentes dites sécuritaires qui pèsent de plus en plus sur la formulation des politiques publiques. Le voyage est une pratique de développement, et un objet de l'économie ou de l'anthropologie du développement. Il doit maintenant devenir un sujet à part entière de l'aide au développement.

Abstract

An increasing number of landings of illegal migrants on the coast of Italy and Spain, but also the recent riots, car-burnings, and street battles that occurred all across France and that have been attributed to the migrant community, seem to indicate that migration is likely to stay high on the European policy agenda for some time. The flow of migrants from poor to rich countries does not, however, constitute a typically European problem. V. S. public policy has also been facing a continued (legal and illegal) inflow of labor from different regions, notably Mexico and other Latin American countries. And similar developments in other advanced countries (Australia, Canada) as weil as in selected fast-growing emerging markets in Eastern Europe and East Asia imply that these countries too are being compelled to adjust their public policies in order to relieve migratory pressures and deal with their consequences. The world economy already saw rising cross-border labor flows in the 1990s and most forecasts predict that South-North and South-South migration will re­ main at relatively high levels over the next decades and possibly even turn into a major global challenge for policy makers in the 21st century.

Abstract

This volume is the first in a new Springer series to examine one of humanity’s most pressing concerns: global migration and its implications for development. As population mobility grows in an ever more crowded world, the Global Forum on Migration and Development (GFMD) has emerged as the most important global mechanism to deal with the urgent challenges it presents. This book explores fresh strategies proposed by the GFMD in its fourth year of operation in Mexico and beyond. Interrogating the relationship between migration and development, the papers advance the Global Forum’s aims of reducing poverty and empowering low-income families everywhere.   In 2010, there were 214 million international migrants worldwide, nearly two and a half times the number in 1965. By 2050, international migration is likely to expand sharply in scale, reach and complexity, due to growing demographic disparities, environmental change, shifting global political and economic dynamics, technological innovations and social networks. Migration can bring substantial gains to families in less-developed countries, and mobile labor is an axiomatic feature of the global economy. Yet outward migration of skilled workers can seriously retard development at home, and exert pressure on wages in host nations. Balancing these and other conflicting concerns requires the substantive and expert discourse offered in this book.   Contributors discuss, and propose concrete solutions to, vital issues such as the debilitating costs of cross-border labor recruitment and the provision of social and income protection for foreign contract workers. With suggestions on how to facilitate connections between transnational families, and gender- and family-sensitive immigration regimes, this book aims to foster collaborative intergovernmental links as well as partnerships between governments, civil society and international organizations. It shows how the GFMD can positively influence policy and institutional behavior while addressing wider systemic factors in protecting mobile workers.

Abstract

"Although the U.S. is home to just 4.4 percent of the world's population, it is by far the most attractive destination for skilled immigrants. Indeed, more than a quarter of all STEM jobs in the health care, information, finance, and education industries are held by immigrants. Engaging original empirical analysis of new data, this volume's contributions shows the links between immigration policy in determining who can come into the country and the rate of innovation among immigrants. The research also brings into focus the relationship between high-skilled immigration and entrepreneurship and to differences between immigrant and native entrepreneurs. The contributors look at both immigrants who come here for work and those who come originally for education"--
