[Foreign immigration in contemporary France].

Immigration trends in France since 1946 are first reviewed. The author notes that immigration peaked in the period prior to the oil crisis of the early 1970s. Tighter immigration controls adopted in 1974 have affected the characteristics of the immigrant population concerning intention to return to country of origin, length of stay, and reuniting of family members. Consideration is also given to immigrant characteristics by nationality, unemployment among foreigners, and fertility differentials. "The second part of the article examines the new terms of the immigration problem (the alternative between the foreigners' integration and the maintainance of the immigrant statute) and the programs to be proposed."

South-North immigrants' settlement and opportunity structures in the U.S.

"This article makes the case that the new immigration [to the U.S. from developing Latin American and Asian countries], motivated by kinship ties and family reunification provisions of U.S. immigration law, leads to a clustering of new immigrants into areas that are no longer attracting large numbers of native-born Americans. It is argued that the concentration of these groups into ¿high immigration regions' will limit their access to employment and education opportunities that would facilitate their spatial assimilation and upward mobility."

An optimized model for substitution of expatriate workforce in a Gulf-Council country: the Kuwaiti case.

"This article is based on data from a research project carried out during 1992-1994 to achieve a replacement mechanism and a model for the substitution of expatriate labour by Kuwaiti nationals. Since Kuwait can readily enforce its Kuwaitization policy in the public sector, the presented model aims at reducing the share of non-Kuwaitis in that sector over five years. Published data on distribution of the workforce in the public sector by nationality indicate that the non-Kuwaiti share of the total workforce is 38 per cent. The majority of [migrant] workers are unskilled or semi-skilled and engaged in production, commerce and services. Sex ratios are unbalanced and workers exhibit a high rate of literacy...."

Balancing obligations and self-interest: humanitarian program settlers in the Australian labor market.

"Technological and structural changes in the Australian economy have led to a decline in unskilled and semi-skilled employment and this has had a marked effect on labor market opportunities for immigrants.... This paper reviews the labor market experience of humanitarian program arrivals and considers the policy implications of high levels of unemployment among this group. It is suggested that humanitarian obligations do not end with entry to Australia, and it is in the interests of the receiving society and humanitarian program arrivals for greater public investment in skills development to help improve labor market outcomes among this group."

U.S. immigration and ethnicity in the 21st century.

The authors attempt to predict future U.S. immigration trends in light of changing policies. "Changes in policy and the presence of illegal entrants complicates measuring and projecting immigration flows. Acknowledging the risks, this article sketches the possible long-term impact of the immigration trends we observe today, if they were to continue for the next 50 years. This study uses a modified cohort-component approach for population projections by race/ethnicity and immigrant generation."
