When ‘Skilled Migrants’ Becomes an Expansive Category
Literature on the social construction of skilled migration has demonstrated how the selective admission of ‘skilled migrants’ by host states produces unequal outcomes, admitting some as ‘skilled’ while excluding others with seemingly similar qualifications. This study examines the other side of this construction and its connection with inequality: how the state's inclusion of individuals with differing skill levels into the same ‘skilled migrants…

How does post‐study employment policy for international students create “skilled” migrants? The case of Japan
The recent literature on skilled migration has addressed the socially constructed nature of the notion and category of “skilled” migrants, revealing the roles of the host state and its admission policy in shaping these migrants. This article adds to the literature by examining how the host state can also socially (or politically) create “skilled” migrants through policy that facilitates the post‐study employment of international students. The ext…
Migration outside large cities
Recent studies suggest that the hiring of migrants in the food processing industry has increased the migrant population outside large cities among affluent migrant-receiving countries. This study examines how the U.S. meatpacking industry and the Japanese seafood processing industry, in particular, have developed a dependence on migrants; it does so to identify whether and how a common-thus cross-nationally generalizable-process may account for m…
How are Part-Time Laboring International Students Incorporated into Host Labor Markets after Graduation? The Case of South and Southeast Asians in Japan
A recent increase in the number of international students employed in low-skilled part-time work raises the question; are they incorporated into host labor markets after they graduate, and if so, how? This article addresses this issue by examining the case of South and Southeast Asian students in Japan. Using both quantitative and qualitative data, this article shows that labor market incorporation occurs for most SSA students and takes two diffe…
What shapes local demand for ‘guest worker’ migrants in Japan? The case of the seafood processing industry
The Technical Intern Training Program has served as a de facto guest worker program for receiving low-skilled migrants during the last quarter century in Japan. While the program enables certain industries to employ migrants, significant local variation exists in the degree to which these industries depend on them. Focusing on the seafood processing industry, this study investigates local economic, demographic, and industrial factors that shape l…
