Happiness in the Daily Socio-Cultural Integration Process: A day Reconstruction Study among American Immigrants in Germany
Many immigrants struggle to integrate into host societies, despite the frequent long-term benefits of integration for immigrants and host societies. This article aims to increase understandings of immigrants’ experiences and obstacles in the daily socio-cultural integration process by examining the understudied impact of daily integration behaviors on momentary happiness. The daily experiences of 213 immigrants from the United States in Germany w…
Economic Crises, Subjective Well-Being, and Vote Switching: The Case of Brazil’s 2018 Presidential Election
This paper examines the influence of the 2015 economic crisis on subjective well-being (SWB) and the withdrawal of support for the incumbent party during the 2018 presidential election in Brazil. Using Gallup World Poll data and a post-election national survey conducted by the Center for Studies on Public Opinion, we find that the economic crisis influenced through different channels both SWB and vote switching. Worsening personal economic circum…
Street Authority and the Politics of Everyday Policing: (Anti-)gangs, the State, and Martial Arts and Action Movies in Goma, drc
Through the ethnographic lens of so-called gangs and anti-gangs , this doctoral thesis investigates the politics of everyday policing in the conflict-affected city of Goma (Democratic Republic of Congo) and the distinct style of street authority it produces. The gangs and anti-gangs focused upon in this doctoral study are marginalised youths from Goma’s popular neighbourhoods, who see it as their mission to protect the cities’ inhabitants from th…
Bringing Happiness Into the Study of Migration and Its Consequences: What, Why, and How
To support migrants and policy makers in making more of migration, the migrant's overall outcome should be at the core of migration research. Effective evaluation of the consequences of migration is impaired, however, by a lack of a clear framework to examine all-encompassing outcomes. This review paper paves the way for a better understanding of whether and under what conditions migration benefits migrants (and others) and lays the foundation fo…
My Life is Like a Movie: Making a Fiction Film as a Route to Knowledge Production on Gang Political Performances in Goma, DR Congo
My life is like a movie' is a sentence that often surfaced during my fieldwork on gangs engaged in everyday policing in the city of Goma (Democratic Republic of Congo); referring to the martial arts and action movies they like to watch. For this article, I will reflect on how during my ethnographic research I ended up making the fiction film Street Life together with the Congolese filmmaker TD Jack, the gang leader Alino and his group Rich Gang. …
The politics of everyday policing in Goma: The case of theAnti-gang
This article takes an ethnographic look at the phenomenon of the Anti-gang, a rather ambiguous everyday policing actor in the city of Goma, the provincial capital of North Kivu, which finds itself at the very heart of the over two decades old protracted armed conflict in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Like other everyday policing actors in Sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere, the Anti-gang of Goma defy simple categorizati…
Macro-conditions and immigrants' happiness: Is moving to a wealthy country all that matters
Why are Locals Happier than Internal Migrants? The Role of Daily Life
The happiness of international migrants: A review of research findings
International migration that is motivated by the striving for a better life is growing explosively. Migrants and policymakers would benefit from knowing whether migrants' outcomes reflect their aims and expectations. Quantitative research that examines the happiness of migrants has been performed in different academic disciplines (e.g. psychology, sociology, and economics). The spread of research over various disciplines has restricted researcher…
