Migrantisch initiierte Architektur findet sich auch in profanen Lebensbereichen unserer Gesellschaft. Anna Marijke Weber untersucht auf Basis einer längerfristigen und vergleichenden Perspektive exemplarisch drei Beispiele: ein Eiscafé, eine Teestube und eine Shishabar. Ihre empirisch dichte zeichnerische und textliche Betrachtung wird von ausgewählten Arbeiten aus Architekturtypologie und Kulturwissenschaften gerahmt, die sie kritisch liest und miteinander ins Gespräch bringt, um ein angemessenes Verstehenskonzept zu definieren. Im Zentrum stehen dabei Entwurfsprozesse, räumliche Entwicklung und der Beitrag zu planerischen sowie weiteren gesellschaftlichen Themenfeldern. Besprochen in: Literaturdatenbank ORLIS, 11 (2020)

"Migration Narratives presents an ethnographic study of an American town that recently became home to thousands of Mexican migrants, with the Mexican population rising from 125 in 1990 to slightly under 10,000 in 2016. Through interviews with residents, the book focuses on key educational, religious, and civic institutions that shape and are shaped by the realities of Mexican immigrants. Focusing on African American, Mexican, Irish and Italian communities, the authors describe how interethnic relations played a central role in newcomers' pathways and draw links between the town's earlier cycles of migration. The town represents similar communities across the USA and around the world that have received large numbers of immigrants in a short time. The purpose of the book is to document the complexities that migrants and hosts experience and to suggest ways in which policy-makers, researchers, educators and communities can respond intelligently to politically-motivated stories that oversimplify migration across the contemporary world. The study has been documented in a short film which can viewed here: www.adelantethefilm.com"--

This Selected Issues paper analyses immigration and the labor market in Malta. This paper finds that immigration has been positive for Malta, as it has helped boost growth, employment, productivity and incomes. The increased availability of foreign labor has also helped contain wage inflation (and hence probably also price inflation) in recent years, contributing to maintain competitiveness in the face of a booming economy. The results suggest that foreign workers have helped contain aggregate wage inflation. The baseline regression includes as regressors the headline unemployment rate, lagged core inflation, labor productivity growth, the share of foreign workers in total employment, and the first and fourth lags of the dependent variable. The results across some selected models suggest that foreign labor has helped contain wage inflation in recent years. In order to identify the drivers of nominal wage growth, a decomposition analysis is conducted which allows calculating the contributions of each of the independent variables included in the regressions.
