Altruisme ou égoïsme ?
Les immigrés ont toujours eu tendance à envoyer de l’argent vers leur pays d’origine. Actuellement, dans les pays en voie de développement, ces sommes constituent la deuxième source de revenus la plus importante. Mais l’envoi d’argent dans le pays d’origine est-il également identique au sein de l’Europe ? Quelles en sont les motivations ? Toutes les études portant sur l’envoi d’argent dans le pays d’origine se sont concentrées sur les immigrés de la première génération. Les mécanismes principaux ont ainsi été minutieusement mis en lumière.

Altruisme ou égoïsme ?
Para muchos países en vías de desarrollo las remesas representan la segunda fuente de ingresos financieros. El envío de remesas también es un comportamiento común entre los inmigrantes en Europa, pero ¿cuál es la motivación detrás de ello? Hasta ahora, los estudios sobre envío de remesas a los países de origen se habían centrado en los inmigrantes de primera generación. Por tanto, las motivaciones detrás de dichos envíos han sido objeto de análisis detallados.

Altruisme ou égoïsme ?
Migrants have likely always sent money back to their home countries, and currently in many developing countries remittances comprise the second largest source of financial inflow. But remittance behaviour is also common within Europe. What is the motivation behind this? All studies on remittances to home countries have thus far focused on first-generation migrants. The main driving forces behind these remittances have therefore been thoroughly analysed. But in their recent research Tineke Fokkema, Eralba Cela and Elena Ambrosetti focused on second-generation migrants.

Altruisme ou égoïsme ?
Migranten haben vermutlich schon immer Geld in ihre Herkunftsländer überwiesen und stellen damit in Entwicklungsländern heute die zweitgrößte Quelle finanzieller Zuflüsse dar. Heimatüberweisungen sind jedoch auch in Europa üblich. Welche Motive liegen diesem Verhalten zugrunde? Sämtliche Studien zu Heimatüberweisungen konzentrierten sich bisher auf Migranten der ersten Generation und haben die Gründe für diese Zahlungen eingehend untersucht. Tineke Fokkema, Eralba Cela und Elena Ambrosetti richten mit ihrer jüngsten Forschungsarbeit nun den Fokus auf Migranten der zweiten Generation.

Migration Becomes More Volatile
Population Europe: Migration is the most uncertain demographic component. Do we really know what happens to migrants in times of recession? Jakub Bijak: We know even less than during the periods of stable economy. Under any circumstances immigration is quite difficult to measure and predict, or even to define in a precise way. During the crisis the situation is even worse, as migration becomes more volatile.

Books and Reports: International Migration Outlook 2013
Migration has started to pick up again, driven largely by people moving within the European Union, after three years of continuous decline during the crisis. But the employment prospects for immigrants have worsened, with around one in two unemployed immigrants in Europe still looking for work after more than 12 months, according to the new OECD report "International Migration Outlook 2013".
