International audience; Since the mid - 1970s, immigration for family reunification has been more important than labour fo rce immigration. Most residence permits are granted because of family relationships. The immigrant population has been ageing. More than half the Italian immigrants are over 65. While second - generation Italians and Spaniards represent nearly half all immig rants 18 and over, they have been largely overtaken in the 0 – 17 age group by second - generation Algerians, Moroccans, Portuguese and sub - Saharan Africans.

Crisis and the strategies of immigrants in Spain: the Latin accent
2014
The crisis has started a new migration cycle in Spain. As an effect of the restrictive measures taken and the depth of the crisis, migrant inflows have reduced and outflows have increased, the latter especially among Latin Americans. This paper explores the impact of the crisis on migrant people and their families in terms of unemployment, of declining living conditions, and of legal uncertainty. In this situation, a growing minority of immigrants, particularly Latin Americans, implement transnational strategies such as return, circular migration and others. Notwithstanding this, most immigrants are facing the crisis here, combining work, social and family strategies.

2013
International audience; This paper aims to compare the educational outcomes of children of immigrants in France and in the US to understand the educational inequalities and opportunities for social mobility for the second generation in both countries.

We explore in particular the role of parental education on attainment. We also utilize in-depth interviews to understand their educational experiences and thei…
Kulttuurienvälinen osaaminen koulutuksessa ja työelämässä
2023
Kirjan tavoitteena on tuoda yksi puheenvuoro laajaan keskusteluun ja tutkimukseen monikulttuurisuudesta ja kulttuurienvälisyydestä sekä avata näkökulmia näihin. Kirjan artikkelit pohjaavat erillisiin tutkimuksiin Jyväskylän yliopiston Koulutuksen tutkimuslaitoksen (KTL) kattohankkeen, Johanna Lasosen tutkimusryhmän Koulutuksen ja työelämän monikulttuuristuminen, sisällä. Osassa artikkeleita kulttuurienvälisyys on ollut tutkimuksen keskiössä, osassa se sivuaa kysymyksenasettelua. Monikulttuurisuuden ja kulttuurienvälisyyden kenttä on valtava ja tutkimusaluekin laaja. Metodit ja tutkimuskysymykset poikkeavat toisistaan paljon, mutta jokaisella puheenvuorolla on paikkansa tällä areenalla. Toiv…
