This book was released on 1984 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research described in this report had the following objectives: to form an estimate of the number of Salvadorians currently in Nicaragua, who left El Salvador for economic reasons; to estimate the costs borne by Nicaragua from 1981-83 as a country of first asylum; to obtain basic information on Central American immigrants in Nicaragua; to study the influence of unemployment and underemployment as reasons prompting Salvadorians and Guatemalans to leave their countries; to study the effects of the presence of refugees on the employment situation in Nicaragua. The study was confined to 'legalized refugees', i.e. 2,414 individuals who were fully identified and relatively easy to locate. It is estimated that over 15,000 refugees have not legalized their situation in Nicaragua. The report recommends that an in-depth study should be made of the whole migrant population which has found, in Nicaragua, the opportunity to survive and to produce. International assistance should be increased and directed towards the development of the production sectors. Educational programmes also need support. Technical advice should be offered to the Government of Nicaragua, to help channel assistance from the international community more effectively.

Download or read book Refugees and Displaced Persons in Central America written by Patricia Weiss Fagen and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the situation of refugees and displaced persons in Central America with particular emphasis on assistance and protection issues and on the US Government's policy in the region. It is divided into five parts. The first contains an overview of refugee exoduses and movements of displaced persons within Central America and Mexico. The author suggests that the US Government has not paid sufficient attention to the problems of refugees and displaced persons in Central America, despite the fact that US contributions to UNHCR have been an essential component in the international refugee programmes in that region. The legal status of refugees and protection issues in each country are examined in the second and third parts. The author notes that Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama and, recently, Guatemala and El Salvador are signatories to the UN 1951 Convention and its 1967 Protocol. At the same time, she observes that there are no refugee programmes in Guatemala and that the UNHCR has neither been invited to investigate the conditions of the 70,000 Salvadorians there nor to establish programmes to help them. It is pointed out that, while adhering to the principle of non-refoulement, the Mexican Government has been under pressure both internally and also from the US Government to pursue repatriation negotiations with the Guatemalan Government, and that some Salvadorian refugees may have been sent back across the border to Guatemala. The author argues that displaced persons are on the whole more vulnerable than refugee groups to repression and assault, and she notes that the situation in El Salvador has been recognized as a major humanitarian emergency by the Government. The two final parts of the report contain the conclusions and recommendations. The author's recommendations include: 1) assistance programmes should be channelled through local churches or other independent agencies; 2) the US Government should ensure that its assistance programmes be administered by social service agencies, not the military as is the case in Guatemala; 3) there should be an increased international presence in Nicaragua to exert a humanitarian influence in issues concerning Miskito Indians; 4) the US should continue to support ICRC programmes in Nicaragua; 5) US assistance programmes in El Salvador should be less politicized; and 6) the US Government should avoid allowing political and military considerations to take precedence over the protection of refugees. In conclusion, the author suggests that the restoration of peace in the region would result in voluntary repatriation.

This book was released on 2002-06-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experiencing both the enormous benefits and the serious detriments of globalization and economic restructuring, Southern California serves as a magnet for immigrants from many parts of the world. This volume advances an emerging body of work that centers this region's future on the links between the two fastest-growing racial groups in California, Asians and Latinos, and the economic and social mainstream of this important sector of the global economy. The contributors to the anthology—scholars and community leaders with social science, urban planning, and legal backgrounds—provide a multi-faceted analysis of gender, class, and race relations. They also examine various forms of immigrant economic participation, from low-wage workers to entrepreneurs and capital investors. Asian and Latino Immigrants in a Restructuring Economy documents the entrenchment of various immigrant communities in the socio-political and economic fabric of United States society and these communities' role in transforming the Los Angeles region.

This book was released on 2019-01-28 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1965 the foreign-born population of the United States has swelled from 9.6 million or 5 percent of the population to 45 million or 14 percent in 2015. Today, about one-quarter of the U.S. population consists of immigrants or the children of immigrants. Given the sizable representation of immigrants in the U.S. population, their health is a major influence on the health of the population as a whole. On average, immigrants are healthier than native-born Americans. Yet, immigrants also are subject to the systematic marginalization and discrimination that often lead to the creation of health disparities. To explore the link between immigration and health disparities, the Roundtable on the Promotion of Health Equity held a workshop in Oakland, California, on November 28, 2017. This summary of that workshop highlights the presentations and discussions of the workshop.

This book was released on 2014-06-12 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugee and Forced Migration Studies has grown from being a concern of a relatively small number of scholars and policy researchers in the 1980s to a global field of interest with thousands of students worldwide studying displacement either from traditional disciplinary perspectives or as a core component of newer programmes across the Humanities and Social and Political Sciences. Today the field encompasses both rigorous academic research which may or may not ultimately inform policy and practice, as well as action-research focused on advocating in favour of refugees' needs and rights. This authoritative Handbook critically evaluates the birth and development of Refugee and Forced Migration Studies, and analyses the key contemporary and future challenges faced by academics and practitioners working with and for forcibly displaced populations around the world. The 52 state-of-the-art chapters, written by leading academics, practitioners, and policymakers working in universities, research centres, think tanks, NGOs and international organizations, provide a comprehensive and cutting-edge overview of the key intellectual, political, social and institutional challenges arising from mass displacement in the world today. The chapters vividly illustrate the vibrant and engaging debates that characterize this rapidly expanding field of research and practice.

Book excerpt: "An emerging field of study that explores the Hispanic minority in the United States, Latino Studies is enriched by an interdisciplinary perspective. Historians, sociologists, anthropologists, political scientists, demographers, linguists, as well as religion, ethnicity, and culture scholars, among others, bring a varied, multifaceted approach to the understanding of a people whose roots are all over the Americas and whose permanent home is north of the Rio Grande. Oxford Bibliographies in Latino Studies offers an authoritative, trustworthy, and up-to-date intellectual map to this ever-changing discipline."--Editorial page.
