Immigrants' attitudes towards immigration: Convergence Towards Majority Views or Ethnoracial Polarization
I am fine, but my group is not: Exploring the Meanings of the Personal/Group Discrimination Discrepancy Among Minority and Majority Populations
Prior literature has highlighted that individuals are more likely to report discrimination against their group rather than towards themselves, a phenomenon known as the personal-group discrimination discrepancy (PGD). Drawing on a recent, large-sample representative survey from France, Trajectories and Origins 2 (TeO2), we offer a novel empirical approach for measuring the discrepancy and investigate three channels through which it operates: iden…
Do Neighborhoods Empower or Disenfranchise? Coethnic Concentration, Spatial Disadvantage, and Voter Registration in France
Diverging pathways: The effects of initial legal status on immigrant socioeconomic and residential outcomes in France
Drawing on a unique, large-sample survey from France, Trajectories and Origins (TeO), this article provides an empirical assessment of the effects of migrants' initial legal status on socioeconomic attainment focusing on three outcomes: household income, neighbourhood disadvantage, and concentration in immigrant neighbourhoods. Legal status effects are identified using a twofold strategy. First, our data comprise an exceptionally rich set of info…
Class versus race? Multidimensional inequality and intersectional identities in France
Drawing on a unique survey question about personal identity in France, this article explores how majority and minority populations identify in terms of race/ethnicity and class. While prior studies have focused on one of these identities, the added value of this article is to examine both using a simultaneous equation model. Literature predicts that minorities have stronger ethnoracial identities, while majority members emphasize their class. Our…
Emotions, governmental trust and support for the restriction of civil liberties during the covid‐19 pandemic
The Covid‐19 pandemic brought unprecedented governmental restrictions to personal and political freedoms. This article investigates individual‐level differences in mass support for the restriction of civil liberties during the first wave of the Covid‐19 pandemic. Employing theories of affect and decision making, it assesses the extent to which different emotional reactions toward the pandemic influenced attitudes toward mobile phone surveillance …
Born Again French: Explaining Inconsistency in Citizenship Declarations in French Longitudinal Data
Citizenship is a fundamental boundary in contemporary societies that entails rights, a sense of belonging, and social status. Drawing on longitudinal census data, this article tracks individual changes in self-reported citizenship over 30 years in France. Respondents choose one of three categories: "French by birth," "became French," or "foreigner." The first category should be stable over the life course: one is born, but cannot become, "French …
Residential Context and Voting for the Far Right: The Impact of Immigration and Unemployment on the 2017 French Presidential Election
The assumption that increasing diversity and economic hardship boost support for the far right is widespread, yet extant research comes up with contradictory findings. This article investigates the link between context and the far right by investigating the impact of immigration and unemployment on voting for Marine Le Pen in the first round of the 2017 French Presidential election. We match a large individual-level survey with contextual variabl…
The multidimensionality of national belonging: Patterns and implications for immigrants' naturalisation intentions
Accelerating the Passage to Citizenship: Marriage and Naturalization in France
Naturalization systems often provide immigrant spouses of citizens with accelerated access to citizenship, but thus far, the impact of such fast-track procedures has yet to be examined by empirical analysis. Toward that end, we leverage a unique feature of French naturalization policy: a dual track system, one for standard naturalization and a second that makes naturalization a right for non-citizens married to citizens. We show that, overall, fa…
Socioeconomic status and long-term exposure to disadvantaged neighbourhoods in France
This paper uses a large-scale longitudinal data set from France over a 23-year period (1990–2013) to investigate the links between socioeconomic status and long-term exposure to disadvantaged neighbourhoods. The findings show that while local environments tend to be durable over the life course, higher income substantially reduces the risk of staying in spaces with high unemployment over time. The negative effect of income on the transmission of …
The ethnoracial context of residential mobility in France: Neighbourhood out‐migration and relocation
Recent research from France has used census data to explore patterns of residential segregation among immigrants and natives. Yet few studies explore how residential mobility underpins these patterns. This article draws on recent panel data (1990–2013) to explore how the ethnoracial composition of neighbourhoods impacts moving among first and second generation immigrants and natives. Two hypotheses are explored: ethnic clustering , or reduced out…
How Durable Are Ethnoracial Segregation and Spatial Disadvantage? Intergenerational Contextual Mobility in France
Building on emerging research into intergenerational contextual mobility, I use longitudinal data from France (1990–2008) to investigate the extent to which second-generation immigrants and the French majority continue to live in similar neighborhood environments during childhood and adulthood. To explore the persistence of ethnoracial segregation and spatial disadvantage, I draw on two measures of neighborhood composition: the immigrant share an…
Quels logements et quels quartiers ? L'intégration résidentielle des immigrés en France
À partir de l'enquête française Trajectoires et origines (TeO), cet article analyse les conditions de logement des immigrés et de leurs descendants pour cinq grands groupes d'origines. Ancré dans les théories classiques de l'assimilation spatiale des immigrés, ce travail explore les facteurs contribuant aux disparités des modes d'occupation des logements et des zones de résidence entre les immigrés et la population majoritaire. Des modèles d'équa…
