Labor Migrants as Political Leverage: Migration Interdependence and Coercion in the Mediterranean / Tsourapas, Gerasimos   Journal Article
Tsourapas, Gerasimos Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract How do states attempt to use their position as destinations for labor migration to influence sending states, and under what conditions do they succeed? I argue that economically driven cross-border mobility generates reciprocal political economy effects on sending and host states. That is, it produces migration interdependence. Host states may leverage their position against a sending state by either deploying strategies of restriction—curbing remittances, strengthening immigration controls, or both—or displacement—forcefully expelling citizens of the sending state. These strategies’ success depends on whether the sending state is vulnerable to the political economy costs incurred by host states’ strategy, namely if it is unable to absorb them domestically and cannot procure the support of alternative host states. I also contend that displacement strategies involve higher costs than restriction efforts and are therefore more likely to succeed. I demonstrate my claims through a least-likely, two-case study design of Libyan and Jordanian coercive migration diplomacy against Egypt in the aftermath of the Arab Spring. I examine how two weaker Arab states leveraged their position against Egypt, a stronger state but one vulnerable to migration interdependence, through the restriction and displacement of Egyptian migrants.

She identifies the most urgent problems of regulating the migratory flows occurring in post-Soviet Kyrgyzstan based on the results of a sociological poll.

Migration situation in trans-baikal territory / Kozykina, N; Sizikova, L   Journal Article
Kozykina, N Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract The Trans-Baikal Territory, by virtue of its geopolitical position, is an active participant in migration processes, being simultaneously a receiving center and a region of migrants' transit. Among the main reasons for immigration to the Trans-Baikal Territory are its economic, business and humanitarian opportunities, the latter including tourism and education. Labor migration in the Trans-Baikal Territory is the most dynamic migration flow. Foreign labor force, especially skilled one, is an objective necessity for the region. Immigration processes have both positive and negative aspects. There is also the problem of illegal foreign migration.
