Abstract

Flanders experienced large inflows of immigrants over the past decade, coming from an increasingly diverse range of countries, with growth rates outpacing the Netherlands, France and Germany, as well as Belgium as a whole. While integration outcomes have improved in recent years, some of the core indicators remain unfavourable in international comparison, especially for non-EU immigrant women, refugees, and youth with migrant parents. Against this backdrop, Flanders has developed a comprehensive integration policy. This review, the fourth in the series Working Together for Integration, provides an in-depth analysis of the Flemish integration system, highlighting its strengths, weaknesses, and potential areas for improvement. Earlier reviews in this series looked at integration in Sweden (2016), Finland (2018) and Norway (2022).

Abstract

"The Making of Teachers in the Age of Migration aims to unravel entrenched hegemonically-induced hindrances and barriers to internationally acquired teaching competencies' recognition processes. With curricula of teacher education - like school curricula - remaining highly affirmative of localized traditions and styles of reasoning, in times of migration movement, teacher education needs to be reframed to become a global issue. The book's contributions cover manifold facets of how the idea of what makes a teacher is being reframed, touching upon theoretical foundations of perceptions of the teaching profession and concrete analyses of measures to bring internationally trained teachers into systems or make them part thereof. Chapters elaborate on how non-local teachers find their way around and are being treated by pointing to what hinders their (successful) re-entry and how other non- or differently-trained personnel receive preferred treatment. Other contributions focus on strategies teachers apply to deal with ever-growing levels of diversity among students."

Abstract

This volume collects a series of writings by Renzo Rastrelli (1948-2008), a long-time professor of Political and diplomatic history of East Asia at the Faculty of Political Sciences "Cesare Alfieri" of the University of Florence. This textual anthology highlights some of the main aspects of the author's scientific work: the analysis on Chinese immigration to Italy, going beyond common stereotypes; the internal dynamics regarding the associative modalities and the forms of dialogue which the Chinese communities have with Italian society; finally, the broader social context which Chinese immigrants find themselves in, drawing attention to the interlacement of restrictive immigration regulations and the facilitation of illegal practices, involving both Chinese and Italian citizens.

Abstract

"Women and Migration(s) II draws together contributions from scholars and artists showcasing the breadth of intersectional experiences of migration, from diaspora to internal displacement. Building on conversations initiated in Women and Migration: Responses in Art and History, this edited volume features a range of written styles, from memoir to artists' statements to journalistic and critical essays. The collection shows how women's experiences of migration have been articulated through art, film, poetry and even food. This varied approach aims to aid understanding of the lived experiences of home, loss, family, belonging, isolation, borders and identity-issues salient both in experiences of migration and in the epochal times in which we find ourselves today. These are stories of trauma and fear, but also stories of the strength,perseverance, hope and even joy of women surviving their own moments of disorientation, disenfranchisement and dislocation. This collection engages with current issues in an effort to deepen understanding, encourage ongoing reflection and build a more just future. It will appeal to artists and scholars of the humanities, social sciences, and public policy, as well as general readers with an interest in women's experiences of migration."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

Making Home(s) in Displacement' critically rethinks the relationship between home and displacement from a spatial, material, and architectural perspective. Recent scholarship in the social sciences has investigated how migrants and refugees create and reproduce home under new conditions, thereby unpacking the seemingly contradictory positions of making a home and overcoming its loss. Yet, making home(s) in displacement is also a spatial practice, one which intrinsically relates to the fabrication of the built environment worldwide.0Conceptually the book is divided along four spatial sites, referred to as camp, shelter, city, and house, which are approached with a multitude of perspectives ranging from urban planning and architecture to anthropology, geography, philosophy, gender studies, and urban history, all with a common focus on space and spatiality. By articulating everyday homemaking experiences of migrants and refugees as spatial practices in a variety of geopolitical and historical contexts, this edited volume adds a novel perspective to the existing interdisciplinary scholarship at the intersection of home and displacement. It equally intends to broaden the canon of architectural histories and theories by including migrants' and refugees' spatial agencies and place-making practices to its annals. By highlighting the political in the spatial, and vice versa, this volume sets out to decentralise and decolonise current definitions of home and displacement, striving for a more pluralistic outlook on the idea of home.

Abstract

This publication highlights how immigrants and their children are integrating into OECD societies, judging their progress against key indicators. Many areas are considered (material living conditions, health, education, labour market, civic engagement) as integration is a multi-dimensional issue. Measures of outcomes, as well as of progress made over the past decade, are presented in comparison with outcomes of a reference group (the population born in the country of residence). Three series of questions are addressed: 1) To what extent does the average performance of immigrants differ from that of the native-born?; 2) Can these differences be explained by structural effects (different distributions by age, educational level, etc.)?; 3) How has integration record evolved over the past decade? An introductory chapter provides a detailed description of the populations under review (foreign-born persons and households, as well as native-born offspring of immigrants). The final chapter gives an overview on discrimination issues, as this is one possible source of persistent disadvantages of immigrants and their children.
