Migration, Precarity, & Global Governance explores an understudied, but central, area within contemporary studies of globalisation and precarisation. It relates to the interface between migration, global governance and the role of civil society, with particular focus on the dilemmas and options of trade unions, too often left off the agenda. The volume suggests that the trade union movement is undergoing a fundamental debate about revitalisation, which could play an important role in terms of the economic, political and social integration of migrant workers, with implications for the transformation of contemporary societies in general. The volume adopts an interdisciplinary and comparative approach, emphasizing the complexity of historically grounded social relations. It examines international migration as it is impacted by, and impacts on, globalization, social and political struggles, and the recurring crisis of capitalism. The first part of the book presents five complementary perspectives on the political economy of migration, labour, and citizenship. Part Two offers analyses of the relationship between labour unions and migrant workers. Part Three explores the way trade unions, migrant organisations, and other civil society groupings interact with an incipient global governance regime relating to migration. It also examines issues of state and non-state actors' accountability in relation to human rights claims as well as the impact of the norm of corporate social responsibility.

How do the United Nations, international organizations, governments, corporate actors and a wide variety of civil society organizations and regional and global trade unions perceive the root causes of migration, global inequality and options for sustainable development? This is one of the most pertinent political questions of the 21st century.This comprehensive collection examines the development of an emerging global governance on migration with the focus on spaces, roles, strategies and alliance-making of a composite transnational civil society engaged in issues of rights and the protection of migrants and their families. It reveals the need to strengthen networking and convergence among movements that adopt different entry points to the same struggle, from fighting ‘managed’ migration to contesting corporate control of food and land. The authors examine the opportunities and challenges faced by civil society in its endeavour to promote a rights-based approach within international and intergovernmental fora engaged in setting up a global compact for the management of migration, such as the Global Forum for Migration and Development, and in other global policy spaces.Chapters 1, 3, and 6 of this book are freely available as downloadable Open Access PDFs at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license (Chapters 1 and 6) and a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) (Chapter 3).

This Handbook presents a comprehensive overview of the interaction between migration and development from a range of critical and counter-hegemonic perspectives. Exploring the strengths and weaknesses of existing practices connected with the migration and development nexus, contributing authors provide a clear understanding of their complex dynamics. Divided into three thematic sections, the Handbook opens with a range of cutting-edge theoretical insights and methodologies that seek to establish the current state of the art. Following this, chapter authors use exploitation and dispossession as overarching concepts to frame key aspects of migration and development from a labour and class perspective. The Handbook then looks ahead, considering the opportunities and dilemmas illustrated by the various initiatives aimed at framing a multi-level governance regime for migration and development across the globe. The Handbook on Migration and Development is an invaluable resource for students, academics and researchers in migration, development studies, sociology and social policy. Bringing together a wide range of underrepresented voices, this Handbook is also of benefit to policymakers working in international migration.

Högutbildade migranter i Sverige

I dagens globala kunskapsintensiva ekonomier konkurrerar länder om att locka till sig högutbildad arbetskraft.

Till Sverige kommer sådan arbetskraft antingen som rekryterad, på eget initiativ eller som flyktingar. I regel är de framgångsrika på arbetsmarknaden och inom sina yrken, men deras väg till att erkännas som fullvärdiga medborgare och yrkespersoner är ofta kantad av motgångar och problem. Känslan av att inte riktigt höra till kan finnas kvar trots att de levt många år i landet. Födelseland, möjligheter till uppehållstillstånd och hudfärg hör till det som kan påverka en individs livsvillkor.

I den här antologin presenteras aktuell forskning om högutbildade migranter i Sverige. De medverkande författarna delar med sig av kunskap och insikter om allt från politik, migranters representation på arbetsmarknaden och myndigheters handläggning av arbetstillstånd till migranternas egna erfarenheter av yrkes- och vardagsliv och deras strävan efter delaktighet och erkännande.

Boken är skriven för en bred läsekrets och riktar sig förutom till forskare också till studenter, journalister, tjänstemän, politiker och en intresserad allmänhet.
