Immigration and Migration: Trends, Management and Challenges

$82.00

Lucas Descoteaux (Editor)

Series: Immigration in the 21st Century: Political, Social and Economic Issues
BISAC: POL030000

Immigration and Migration: Trends, Management and Challenges explores the governance of immigrant religious groups. More specifically, the opening paper uses Foucault’s concept of governmentality as an analytical framework to frame a qualitative case study of Ghanaian and Somali immigrants in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

The authors go on to analyze gender differences in labor conditions and health, such as access to paid work and health services, disparities in salaries and work sectors and comparative morbidity patterns between male and female immigrants.

Next, a mobile-assisted language learning framework (using a language application and a tablet) was developed to assist low-level English migrant women to acquire, expand and enrich their English vocabulary. This was achieved through a research project with 15 migrant women who were grouped into three case studies, where each experienced different learning environments.

The final chapter describes the specific migratory phenomenon of children who migrate alone, making a comparison among European areas. Focus is placed on the Italian context (given that Italy is often the country where migrants first arrive) and the US context in order to understand the connection to the broader landscape of globalization.
