Smithian shoreline migrations and depositional settings in Timpoweap Canyon (Early Triassic, Utah, USA).

2014

AbstractIn Timpoweap Canyon near Hurricane (Utah, USA), spectacular outcrop conditions of Early Triassic rocks document the geometric relationships between a massive Smithian fenestral-microbial unit and underlying, lateral and overlying sedimentary units. This allows us to reconstruct the evolution of depositional environments and high-frequency relative sea-level fluctuations in the studied area. Depositional environments evolved from a coastal plain with continental deposits to peritidal settings with fenestral-microbial limestones, which are overlain by intertidal to shallow subtidal marine bioclastic limestones. This transgressive trend of a large-scale depositional sequence marks a lo…

The spread of steppe and Iranian-related ancestry in the islands of the western Mediterranean

2020

Steppe-pastoralist-related ancestry reached Central Europe by at least 2500 bc, whereas Iranian farmer-related ancestry was present in Aegean Europe by at least 1900 bc. However, the spread of these ancestries into the western Mediterranean, where they have contributed to many populations that live today, remains poorly understood. Here, we generated genome-wide ancient-DNA data from the Balearic Islands, Sicily and Sardinia, increasing the number of individuals with reported data from 5 to 66. The oldest individual from the Balearic Islands (~2400 bc) carried ancestry from steppe pastoralists that probably derived from west-to-east migration from Iberia, although two later Balearic individ…

Les trajectoires des footballeurs africains à la lumière de la mondialisation.

2010

Depuis la promulgation de l’arrêt « Bosman  » en 1995, le nombre de joueurs expatriés recensés dans les principaux championnats européens a considérablement augmenté. Cet article montre que cette augmentation a surtout concerné les joueurs originaires d’Afrique et d’Amérique latine. Leur mobilité intervient dans un contexte très spéculatif au sein duquel de nombreux intermédiaires interagissent pour construire les canaux migratoires permettant aux joueurs de circuler à travers différents pays. Les trajectoires idéales — typiques de joueurs africains en Europe — permettent d’illustrer les logiques sociales, géographiques et économiques à la base de ces flux. Since the “Bosman” law in 1995, t…

Abitare i luoghi dell'integrazione

Il tema che la ricerca in questione indaga, riguarda l’abitare posto in relazione agli imponenti flussi migratori che si susseguono nelle città e che, configurano nuove pratiche sociali e urbane. La storia ci mostra come, da sempre, lo spostamento dei popoli abbia determinato sviluppi sia dal punto di vista demografico, storico, culturale, economico all’interno dei paesi ma, allo stesso tempo, ha modificato lo spazio urbano, in quanto portatori di culture tradotti in forme. Si pensi infatti, alle tante testimonianze, ancora presenti nelle città, in cui sono evidenti le diverse influenze (dal popolo greco, romano, arabo, ebreo, etc) che si pongono come valore di memoria e continuità. Rispett…

Regards croisés sur les étudiants et les jeunes diplômés : déterminants individuels et migrations régionales

2006

This paper aims at comparing individual and regional factors of young people's migrations. Especially these linked with French High Education ; entering University, students in training and graduates integrating labour market. Do they mirgrate the same way ? Do regions influence the way they migrate ? Do individual and social factors interfere in the same way ? This paper aims at answering all these questions.

Modeling Local Social Migrations: A Cellular Automata Approach

2015

In local social migrations, agents move from their initial location looking for a better local social environment. Social migrations processes do not change the number of social agents of a given type (i.e., the empirical distribution of the population) but their spatial location. Although cellular automata seems to appear as a natural approach to model of social migrations, the evolution of the configuration through a cellular automata might induce a new configuration wherein the number of agents of each type might be actually modified. This article provides a characterization of these cellular automata rules such that for any initial empirical distribution, the evolution of the configurat…

Inmigración, diversidad cultural, reconocimiento político

2009

El artículo sostiene la tesis de que, aunque la culturalización del debate migratorio tiene aspectos positivos, la prioridad se halla en la política, puesto que, si no hay participación política de los inmigrantes en la sociedad de acogida, no hay sentimiento de pertenencia, ni conciencia de identidad, y difícilmente cabe hablar de integración social de los inmigrantes.

Foreign Migration of Poles in Scientific Research at the Turn of Century

2008

Foreign Migration of Poles in Scientific Research at the Turn of CenturyThe article deals with problems related to present foreign migrations of Poles. The attention is concentrated on presenting scientific research results in this sphere indicating many problems caused by migrations not only in the social, demographic and economic spheres but also in political and cultural spheres thus enabling scientists to understand better this complex and multidimensional phenomenon.

Integración: una cuestión de derechos

2010

This article achieves a comparative analysis between the Citizenship and Integration Programme (2007-2010) and the spanish Migration Bill Project. Firstly, it aims to analyze whether the concept of integration, as it was introduced as a general principle within the Migration Bill, is consistent with the concept of the Programme. Secondly, it is about to examine how the notion of integration affects some of the provisions, which are introduced by the law reform, especially on fundamental rights. Finally, this leads to assess the implications and strains between migration control policies and integration policies about migrants’.
