This book explores the linkages between Southern Europe and South America in the post-World War II period, through organized migration and development policies. In the post-war period, regulated migration was widely considered in the West as a route to development and modernization. Southern European and Latin American countries shared this hegemonic view and adopted similar policies, strategies, and patterns, which also served to promote their integration into the Western bloc. This book showcases how overpopulated Southern European countries viewed emigration as a solution for high unemployment and poverty, whereas huge and underpopulated South American developing countries such as Brazil and Argentina looked at skilled European immigrants as a solution to their deficiencies in qualified human resources. By investigating the transnational dynamics, range, and limitations of the ensuing migration flows between Southern Europe and Southern America during the 1950s and 1960s, this book sheds light on post-World War IImigration-development nexus strategies and their impact in the peripheral areas of the Western bloc. Whereas many migration studies focus on single countries, the impressive scope of this book will make it an invaluable resource for researchers of the history of migration, development, international relations, as well as Southern Europe and South America.

This open access Regional Reader examines the dynamics and impacts of international migration within and from West Africa. The book presents key theoretical perspectives and empirical findings on historical trends, geographical patterns, drivers and socio-economic impacts of both voluntary and involuntary migration in West Africa, a region that is characterised by high level of mixed migration flows. The book is divided into three main parts: changing patterns and governance of migration, managing environmental and forced migration, and diaspora, transnationalism and development. The chapters raise key research questions and outline recommendations for improving migration governance, protecting migrants and harnessing the benefits of migration for socio-economic development for both countries of origin and destination of migrants. As such this Regional Reader provides an interesting read to students, academics, researchers, migration experts, development practitioners and policy makers.

The landscape of European migration has changed considerably over the past decades, in particular after the fall of the iron curtain and again after the EU enlargement to the east. The author researches the phenomenon of highly qualified migration using the example of migration between the Czech Republic and Germany. The book reveals diverse strategies migrants use to respond to the possible de-valuation of their qualification, e.g. by making use of their language skills, starting new studies or using transnational knowledge.

Créée en 1989, la revue Migrations Société est une publication trimestrielle portant sur l'actualité migratoire et - comme son nom l'indique - ses implications sur la société. L'évolution sociale en France et dans les pays concernés par le phénomène migratoire se fait parfois silencieusement, mais la mobilité humaine forge au quotidien des réalités sociales nouvelles et importantes. La revue puise son originalité dans un large éventail d'approches interdisciplinaires, dans une totale liberté et dans la pluralité idéologique, sur la base d'un regard international permettant de confronter les expériences des différents pays du monde. Migrations Société bénéficie des ressources documentaires du Centre d'information et d'études sur les migrations internationales (CIEMI). Dans ses approches théoriques et méthodologiques, Migrations Société intègre naturellement les questions relevant de la multiculturalité, ce qui se reflète non seulement dans les contributions que publie la revue, mais aussi dans la composition de son conseil scientifique constitué de personnalités reconnues par leur compétence et leurs activités universitaires, associatives, sociales, confessionnelles, civiques ou médiatiques. Ces quelque vingt-cinq personnes font ainsi interagir les approches sociologique, historique, démographique, juridique, économique, philosophique, militante, politique, religieuse et journalistique.
