Refugees, Inequality, and Human Development
This paper examines the relation between refugee movements and indicators of income, education, and life expectancy in sending and receiving countries. Countries which score low on the Human Development Index are more likely to experience confl ict giving rise to internal displacement and refugee movements. Wealthier countries accept the better educated for permanent settlement, while admitting lessskilled manual workers and asylum seekers on a t…
Citizenship, Naturalization, and Asylum: The Case of Britain
Citizenship and naturalization procedures in the UK are examined in historical perspective. Recent legislation is reviewed in the light of global change. The implication of membership in the European Union is examined. The differential treatment of Commonwealth citizens and former colonial subjects is reviewed, as well as human rights questions raised by the treatment of asylum seekers. As a result of globalization, Britain is experiencing the sa…
Social Exclusion: Belonging and Not Belonging in the World System
The term “social exclusion” is defined. Research on social exclusion, undertaken in Britain, with particular reference to the situation of ethnic minorities and refugees is reviewed. It is argued that the phenomenon of social exclusion must be understood in a global context. Inequality, social exclusion, ethnic conflict, and terrorist activities, while not caused by globalization, have been greatly exacerbated by recent changes in the world syste…
Globalization: Implications for Immigrants and Refugees
Globalization is not a new process. It is an acceleration of changes induced by the post-industrial revolution in transport and communication. The rapid growth of population in less developed countries combines with a reduction in barriers to migration from formerly authoritarian regimes to induce mobility. Economic inequality combines with demographic pressures and environmental crises to generate ethnic conflict and terrorist threats. Wealthier…

Refugees and Racism in Canada
The terms race and racism are defined, and the history of their use in Canada since Confederation is examined. A distinction is made between “macro” and “micro” racism. Examples of interpersonal and systemic racism in Canada are considered in the context of multicultural policies and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Changes in Canadian immigration law and regulations are examined and their implications for refugee movements reviewed. It is con…
Global Apartheid: A Postscript
Trends in the numbers and location of refugees and asylum seekers during the 1980s and the 1990s are compared. The question of whether the world has created a system of “global apartheid” is reviewed. The outcome of asylum applications filed in European countries is compared with those in Canada and the United States. It is concluded that racism still prevails in the treatment of refugees. Canada’s record compares favourably with those of other d…
Refugees and Asylum ~eekers In Britain: V.K. Immigration and Asylum Act,1999
Trends in the numbers of asylum applicants in Britain 1997-00 are examined, together with changes in the law and in the treatment of refugees in the U.K. The system is designed to deter claimants, penalise anyone assisting illegal entry and aims to expedite removal. New regulations control the location of asylum seekers in the country, pending determination of their status. Differential treatment of various nationalities indicates systemic discri…
Immigration policy and research in Canada: Pure or applied
Absttact A reoiew of Canadian immigration research, published between 1-980 and '1998, suggests that research had only a limited impact on policies and programmes. Economists seemed to hnzte more influence thnn psychologists, sociologists or demogra-phers. Alternatiae models of the way research may enter the policy decision-making process are described. A'systems ' model recognises the competing influence of special interest groups and the influe…

Multiculturalism in crisis: A postmodern perspective on Canada
Using a modified postmodern perspective, Canada's policy of multiculturalism and the emphasis upon 'unity within diversity' are related to the theme of globalization and the development of 'a new world order'. It is argued that Canada is not unique in its efforts to come to terms with the contradictions and conflicts generated by postindustrialism and the realignment of superpowers. Questions of identity, collective self-determination and the pro…
Reactive Migration: Sociological Perspectives On Refugee Movements
Sociological theories of migration and refugee movements are reviewed and revised in the light of recent developments in structuration theory. Specifically, the dichotomy between ‘voluntary’ and ‘involuntary’ or forced migration is replaced by a continuum between proactive and reactive migration. A systems model is proposed which identifies predisposing factors, structural constraints, precipitating events, enabling circumstances and system feedb…
Open and Closed Borders: Is the New World Order Creating a System of Global Apartheid
Ethnic Cleansing some provinces, the formation of separate school systems for Catholics and Protestants, are all examples of the prinaple of separation being used as a device to reduce tension and maintain control. When South Africa introduced its system of African reserves (later called Bantustans or Homelands) it was following a well established precedent in colonial history. The English "Pale" in France and Ireland, the partition of Ireland an…
Education and qualifications of Caribbean migrants in Metropolitan Toronto
Previous studies of the educational experience of Caribbean immigrants in Canada are reviewed and special tabulations of 1986 census data for metropolitan Toronto analysed. The educational achievement of Caribbean immigrants is compared with that of other immigrants and with the Canadian‐born. Those who arrived before 1971, together with young people of Caribbean origin, born in Canada and living in Caribbean families, achieved levels of educatio…
Immigration and Structural Change: The Canadian Experience, 1971–1986
The educational, occupational, industrial and income characteristics of immigrants in Canada, 1971–1986, are considered in the context of postindustrial structural changes in the economic and social system, including declining primary and secondary sectors. Seven alternative theoretical models are reviewed. A composite model of “segmented structural change” is found to correspond more closely than alternative theoretical perspectives to the empir…

Sociological Theories of International Migration: The Case of Refugees
Current theoretical sociological studies of international migration are reviewed with a view to assessing their relevance to the study of refugee migration. The author concludes that such studies have not generally taken the case of refugees into account. He also concludes that empirical studies concerning refugees have been conducted on an ad hoc basis that is largely unconcerned with developments in sociological theory. (SUMMARY IN FRE
A Multivariate Model of Immigrant Adaptation
The longitudinal approach to the study of immigrants has many undoubted advantages, to which Professor Appleyard and others have drawn attention (Appleyard, 1964, 1972). When observations are made and information obtained at each stage of the migratory experience, from the original decision to emigrate onward, the data obtained are more reliable than when the researcher must rely upon retrospection. Furthermore, by following a specific cohort ove…

The Economic Adaptation of Immigrants: A New Theoretical Perspective
Classical “functionalist” theories of migration are compared in this paper with neo-Marxian models and both are found inadequate to explain international trends in migration and the Canadian experience of immigration since World War II. An alternative “global systems model” of international and internal migration is put forward which takes into account the movements within and between industrial and postindustrial societies, as well as movements …

Return migration from Canada to Britain
Statistics of migrants returning from Canada to Britain and re-registering for national insurance purposes are compared with labour force immigrants entering Canada between 1956 and 1965. Short and long-term indices are calculated which suggest that return migration has been increasing since 1960. A sample survey carried out in 1962-63 distinguishes three types of returning migrant: (a) quasi-migrants who originally planned to return to Britain; …

Canadian Immigration: Recent Developments and Future Prospects
Canada has a population of 22S million people inhabiting nearly four million squarre miles of territory.

This has led many people to regard it as under- populated and capable of absorbing a vastly increased population. Howerrer, this ex- pansionist view is now being seriously quastioned. It is recognized that much of the laud is mountainous or…

Post-War Immigrants in Canada
One of the cardinal assumptions of Canadian immigration policy in the post-war period was that British immigrants would be more readily absorbed than those from other countries. In accordance with this belief, the Canadian government offered special encouragement to these immigrants in the form of fewer formalities, speedier procedures for obtaining visas and an active promotional campaign in England. This study compares and contrasts the economi…

Historiquement, le Canada est dualiste dans sa langue et son héritage culturel aussi bien que dans la structure de ses institutions. Toutefois, l'immigration a donné lieu à un pluralisme culturel et à d'autres phénomènes de différentiation sociale, de stratification et de redistribution écologique. Des termes comme ceux d'“assimilation” et d'“intégration” ne sont pas appropriés lorsqu'ils s'appliquent au nombre croissant d'immigrants “de passage”…
