D'un voyage à l'autre. Des voix de l'immigration pour un développement pluriel
Institut Panos Paris BLION Reynald, RIGONI Isabelle (Eds) 2001 Book Publication only available in french
Véritable serpent de mer, périodiquement actualisé, le débat sur les relations entre migration et développement a fait l'objet de nombreuses contributions. Pus rares sont celles fondées sur le parti pris de cet ouvrage ; à savoir porter un regard - des regards - sur les relations entre migrations et développement sous l'angle des pratiques et des dynamiques initiées par les acteurs issus de l'immigration africaine ou asiatique résidant en Europe, en faveur du développement de leur société d'origine mais aussi d'accueil.
Les analyses sur les initiatives tant privées que publiques, sur les groupes d'acteurs impliqués dans ces actions, sur les cadres dans lesquels ou sur lesquels ils agissent, regroupées au sein de cet ouvrage, offrent une gamme variée de clés de compréhension de la migration et du développement, et de leurs interactions. Enfin, la diversité des auteurs - chercheurs ou praticiens du développement, issus ou non de l'immigration - réunis au sein de cet ouvrage garantit une expression pluraliste des voix de l'immigration pour un développement pluriel et participatif, impliquant réellement les différentes composantes de la société civile.
L'introduction à cet ouvrage est disponible sur le site.

Remittances and Immigrants: Global context and Italian Case Dossier Statistico Immigrazione 2002 Study
In today globalized world, immigrants pay the role on "Mediators for Development." The savings that immigrants remit to their countries of origin contribute considerably to the countries' development. In this way, emigrants remittances have a fundamental impact on the local development, international trade and the balance of debt payments. In 1998, the limmigrants remittances totalled $61.2 billion USD, an amount that seconded only the finances derives from oil.
This study focuses on the global phenomenon of immigration from a economic point of view. We have presented the global context of immigrants remittances and elaborated on the italian case. Italy represents an interesting case study because within only a few years Italy transformed from a country of emigration to a country of immigration.
The growing volume onf the remittances sent fro Italy abroad is evidence of this change.
The " Dossier Statistico Immigrazione" is a annual report on immigration in Italy conducted by Caritas in collaboration with other researches. Besides, the "Dossier", Caritas also produces specific research studies, such as this one which was sponsored by the International Labour Organization of Geneva.
