Abstract:
This article explores how Afghan (Hazara) women negotiate and sift their religious understandings and identities over time after migrating to Germany. Migration experiences and exposure to German society has impacted their self-narration and conceptualisation of cultural change in their own identity. This ethnographic research illustrates the notion of acceptance or rejection to change among Hazara immigrant women in their lived religion in diaspora. Based on my fieldwork, three different trajectories along religious lines occur in the Afghan diaspora: a group of immigrants, enhancing Islamic values, whose relationship to and involvement in religion intensified and increased; the second group largely consider themselves secular Muslims trying to fully indulge into the new society; the third group has an elastic religious identity, blending Islamic values with Western-inspired lifestyles.

Abstract:
Processes whose entities would be independent but whose behaviour is influenced by environmental variables, which they in turn affect, are processes with mediated interactions. The independent open migration process with which is associated a random variable, the excitation, is such a process. This self-excited (conditionally) independent open migration process, with finite excitation, is related to a derived process, its piecewise-deterministic analogue. The correspondence gives insight into the process, as well as an equilibrium independence result. A simple example illustrates the presence of paroxysmal phenomena.

Abstract:
Gillian Brock’s compelling and richly textured new book aims to set out a human-rights-based framework for thinking about justice in migration. There is much to celebrate in these chapters, not least Brock’s masterful effort at weaving together her basic justificatory framework with real-world political concerns. In this article, I query the focus she places on self-determination in setting out the basic normative argument elaborated in Chapters 2, 3, and 9. In particular, I will wonder whether she gives the collective self-determination of a people anything more than instrumental value, and so whether she is able to distance herself from so-called proponents of “open borders”.

Abstract:
In this dissertation I explore the impact that language-migration has on Self-Identity. The thesis consists of two parts: a memoir The Strangeness of Freedom, and an exegesis. Each is intended to stand alone, but also to complement the other. In the memoir I draw on my personal recollections of my family's migrations across five countries (Czechoslovakia, West Germany, USA and Australia) and into three languages (Czech, German and English) in order to convey my particular experience of language migration. In the exegesis I analyse several memoirs written by other language migrants and examine what impact they believe migrating into a new language and culture had on their own Self-identity. I draw on postmodern and psychoanalytic theory to explore the nature of Self-Identity formation and why migrants, as well as non-migrants might experience a change in their Self-identity during the course of their lives. I attempt to tease out to what extent the change in Self-identity is a universal experience that results from living across time and moving from a known past into an unknown future, regardless of whether one physically migrates or not. I found that while language-migrants tend to describe a more intense disruption of their Self-Identity, non-migrants also experience such a disruption in their sense of Self, simply by living in a rapidly changing world. I propose that while changing locations and languages clearly disrupts the continuity we presume life entails, it is in fact the passage of time that distances us from our known past, including our familiar Self, even if we never physically or linguistically migrate.

Abstract:
This thesis is a discourse-analytical study of SELF and OTHER representations in contemporary Russian discourse on migration. The overall aim of this thesis is to explore how SELF and OTHER discourse participants are represented in pro-governmental discourse, to which extent the ideology of pro-governmental media discourse can be classified as discriminatory towards migrants and how it changes in the period between the years 2006 and 2009. The discussion is based on the results of the discourse analysis of the corpus of texts collected from three various sources. Firstly, the pro-governmental moderate corpus of media articles collected from the website of the Moscow City Council in August – November 2006 is compared to the corpus of texts collected from the website of the radical anti-migrant movement DPNI. The purpose of this comparative study is to establish the extent of commonalities through the analysis of referential-categorizing and evaluative strategies between thee two types of discourse. Moreover, in the instances of represented discourse, it is important to understand how journalists position themselves and the readers with respect to the evaluative force of the statements. The results received from the analysis of these strategies are used to construct discourse space ontology for SELF and OTHER representations. Secondly, the moderate corpus is extended to receive more data for the analysis of conceptual imagery, i.e. metaphors. The analysis of metaphors confirms tendencies typical of migration discourse but also has its special pattern which is attributed to sociocultural specifics explored through the examination of conceptual blends. The evaluative dimension constitutes an important aspect of the discourse analysis of conceptual imagery. Finally, a multimodal corpus of verbal and visual data representing a protest action by the pro-governmental youth movement “Molodaia Gvardiia” at the end of 2008 – beginning of 2009 is searched for specific strategies of SELF and OTHER representation. The analysis shows an extensive use of discursive strategies typical of racist ideology used for the representation of SELF and OTHER discourse participants in pro-governmental media discourse on migration.

Abstract:
A literatura econômica que estuda migração sempre esteve preocupada com o impacto da migração sobre o bem-estar, seja na forma de imigração ou na forma de brain drain. Os dois artigos que compõem esta tese estão relacionados a este tema. Apesar do modelo de Roy concluir que os emigrantes são negativamente selecionados se a taxa de retorno à educação é maior na economia de origem, os trabalhos empíricos encontram evidências de emigrantes positivamente selecionados. O primeiro artigo utiliza um modelo para argumentar que se o mercado de crédito é imperfeito, tanto investimentos em educação como a decisão de emigração dependem da riqueza inicial do agente. Isto permite explicar a controvérsia entre a literatura teórica e empírica e o porquê da classe média ser aquela com maior mobilidade em alguns países. A segunda parte da tese está diretamente relacionada à literatura de beneficial brain drain. Os trabalhos nessa área argumentam que a possibilidade de um trabalhador educado de emigrar para outro país que remunera melhor sua mão-de-obra qualificada aumenta a taxa de retorno à educação na economia de origem e conseqüentemente os investimentos em capital humano. O artigo utiliza como experimento a construção de Palmas, capital do Tocantins, para investigar esta hipótese. Os resultados empíricos encontrados a partir dos microdados dos Censos de 1991 e 2000 indicam uma relação negativa entre investimentos em educação e a distância rodoviária até a capital - usada como proxy dos custos de emigração - para o período posterior à fundação de Palmas e uma relação nula para o período anterior. As evidências são interpretadas como favoráveis à existência do brain effect, uma vez que o aumento na escolaridade foi maior para os indivíduos que mais se beneficiaram com a construção da capital.
The Economic literature which studies migration has always been concerned about its impact on welfare. Two different lines of research in this field focus on impacts of immigration and brain drain. The two articles which comprise the thesis are related to these subjects. Although Roy s model claims that emigrants are negatively self- selected if the rate of return is higher in the origin economy, empirical works have found positively selected emigrants. The first article uses a model to argue that both investments in education and the decision to emmigrate depend on wealth if credit markets are imperfect. This argument allows us to explain the controversy between the theoretical and empirical literature as well as why the middle-class is the most mobile one in some countries. The second part of the thesis is directly related to the beneficial brain drain literature. Works in this field claim that the possibility for an educated worker of emmigrating to another country in which skilled labor is better paid raises the rate of return to education in the origin country and consequently the investments in human capital. The article uses as an experiment the creation of Palmas, a state capital in Brazil, to investigate this hypothesis. The empirical results obtained from microdata evidence a negative relation between investments in human capital and the distance to the capital-used as a proxy to emmigration costs-in the period after the creation of the capital and no relation in the period before. Those findings are interpretated as favorable to the brain effect hypothesis, once the increase in education was greater for individuals who benefited the most from the foundation of the capital.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the role of collective cell migration and self-organisation in the development of the embryo and in vitro tissue formation through mathematical and computational approaches. We consider how population heterogeneity, microenvironmental signals and cell-cell interactions facilitate cells to collectively organise and navigate, with the aim to work towards uncovering general rules and principles, rather than delving into the microscopic molecular details. To ensure the biological relevance of our results, we collaborate closely with experimental biologists working on two model systems. First, to understand how neural crest cells obtain directionality, maintain persistence and specialise during their migration, we use computational simulations in parallel with imaging of chick embryos under genetic and surgical perturbations. We show how only a few cells adopting a leader state that enables them to read out chemical signals can lead a population of cells in a follower state over long distances in the embryo. Furthermore, we devise and test an improved mechanism of how cells dynamically switch between leader and follower states in the presence of a chemoattractant gradient. Our computational work guides the choice of new experiments, aids in their interpretation and probes hypotheses in ways the experiments can not. Secondly, to study the self-organisation of mouse skin cells in vitro, we draw on aggregation processes and scaling theory. Dermal and epidermal cells, after being dissociated and mixed, can reconstitute functional (transplantable and hair-growing) skin in culture. Using kinetic aggregation models and scaling analysis we show that the initial clustering of epidermal cells can be described by Smoluchowski coagulation, consistent with the dynamics of the "clustering clusters" universality class. Then, we investigate a potential mechanism for the size-regulation of cell aggregates during the later stages of the skin reconstitution process. Our analysis shows the extent to which this tissue formation follows a single physical process and when the transition to different dynamics occurs, which may be triggered by cellular biochemical changes.

Abstract:
Paper [I]- Household Migration and the Local Public Sector: Evidence from Sweden, 1981-1984 (co-authored with Michael L. Wyzan), contains an empirical explo­ration of the nexus between variables related to the local public sector budget and migration. Micro-data is employed in binomial and multinomial-logit regressions esti­mating the probability to migrate. We report results separately for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, because the per capita levels of the tax base and intergovernmen­tal grants are theoretically important migration determinants where population is sparse, while the tax rate may be more important where population is dense. Empirical results support our fiscal hypotheses and are consistent with previous findings on household characteristics. Paper [II]- Internal Gross Migration in Sweden: The effects of Variation in Mobility Grants and Regional Labour Market Conditions, focuses on the effects of labor market conditions and migratory stimuli on over county-border migration. Aggregate data on the flows of all migrants and on the flows of migrants receiving extra mobility stimuli are used in estimations of a single-equation migration model based on the hiring function. The results indicate that regional migration flows respond to changes in labor market conditions in accordance with predictions from economic theory. This result seems mainly to stem from the migratory behavior of the unemployed. In addition, nonmatching migration subsidies at the levels employed are not found to be migration enhancing. Paper [IH]- Employment Opportunities, Wages and Interregional Migration in Sweden 1970-1989, deals with the impact of aggregate labor turnover and regional labor market conditions on gross in- and outmigration. Annual panel data is used in estima­tion of separate in- and outmigration functions, where regional labor market conditions are assumed to be endogenous with migration under two different assumptions concer­ning the working of the labor market. An increase in the regional excess supply of labor is found to increase outmigration and decrease inmigration. Moreover, cyclical variation in labor turnover is positively correlated with gross migration. The hypothesized effects of real wages on migration are not confirmed. The results are not sensitive to the various assumptions concerning regional wage formation considered in this study. Paper [IV]- A Panel Study of Migration, Household Real Earnings and Self-Selec- tion (co-authored with Roger Axelsson). The effects of migration on household real earnings are examined. Data pertain to a sample of stable household constellations in Sweden, 1978-1991. A treatment-effect model is employed, whereby the potential effects of nonrandom sampling of data on earnings for migrants and nonmigrants are taken into account. We find that stable multi-adult household constellations did not gain in income from migration during the 1980s. In addition, we find no strong indications of selection bias in the income equation.

Cette thèse a pour but d’analyser la migration des inventeurs en étudiant leur contribution à l’innovation de leur pays de destination ainsi que leur pays d’origine, en contrôlant par leurs caractéristiques individuelles telles que leur genre, éducation, expérience, mobilité interentreprise et d’autres. De plus, nous décomposons les flux de migrants par canaux d’entrer dans le pays de destination, tel que le canal de l’éducation, multinational ou si l’inventeur change d’entreprise, et analysons la sélection des migrants et le gap de productivité entre les natifs et les migrants. Aussi, dans cette analyse, nous décomposons les cohortes d’entrées dans le pays de destination en comparant la productivité entre les migrants eux-mêmes. Finalement, nous étudions si les migrants de retour sont plus productifs que leurs collègues non migrants dans leur pays d’origine en fonction de leur expérience acquise à l’étranger
This thesis investigates the migration of inventors by studying their contribution to the innovation at both destination and in their home country, after controlling for individual characteristics such as gender, education, experience, company mobility and others. In addition, we decompose the flows of migrants by entry channel in the destination country, such as the education channel, the multinational channel or when the inventors change of company and investigate the selection of migrants and the productivity gap between natives and migrants. Also, in the analysis, we decompose the cohort of entry in the destination country to compare the productivity differences among migrants themselves. Finally, we study whether return migrants are more productive than their non-migrants’ colleagues in origin countries, as a function of their experiences abroad
L'obiettivo principale di questa tesi è lo studio della migrazione degli inventori e il loro contributo all’innovazione nei Paesi di destinazione ed origine, controllando per una serie di caratteristiche individuali, come ad esempio genere, livello di educazione, esperienza e mobilità. Inoltre, differenziamo il flusso migratorio secondo lo specifico canale di entrata nel Paese di destinazione, come ad esempio educazione, riallocazione di sede all’interno di imprese multinazionali, o mobilità tra imprese, per analizzare la selezione e il gap di produttività tra migranti e non-migranti. Per comparare la produttività tra migranti, la nostra analisi distingue i differenti periodi di entrata nel Paese di destinazione. Infine, analizziamo se gli inventori che tornano nel loro Paese di origine siano più produttivi dei loro colleghi non-migranti in funzione delle esperienze acquisite nel Paese di destinazione

Abstract:
Metastasis is one of the critical hallmarks of malignancy tumor and the principal cause of death in patients with cancer. Cell migration is the basic and essential step in cancer metastasis process. To systematically investigate functional genes regulating cell migration and cancer metastasis on large scale, we developed a novel on-chip method, SAMcell (self-assembled cell microarray). This method was demonstrated to be particularly suitable for loss-of-function high-throughput screening because of its unique advantages. The first application of SAMcell was to screen human genome miRNAs, considering that more and more miRNAs had been proved to govern cancer metastasis. We found that over 20 % of miRNAs have migratory regulation activity in diverse cell types, indicating a general involvement of miRNAs in migratory regulation. Through triple-round screenings, we discovered miR-23b, which is down-regulated in human colon cancer samples, potently mediates the multiple steps of metastasis, including cell motility, cell growth and cell survival. In parallel, the second application of SAMcell was to screen human genome kinase genes, considering that more and more kinase genes had become successful diagnostic marker or drug targets. We found over 11% migratory kinase genes, suggesting the important role of kinase group in metastasis regulation. Through both functional screening and bioinformatics analysis, we discovered and validated 6 prospective metastasis-related kinase genes, which can be new potential targets in cancer therapy. These findings allow the understanding of regulation mechanism in human cancer progression, especially metastasis and provide the new insight into the biological and therapeutical importance of miRNAs or kinases in cancer.

Este estudo busca analisar os significados sobre maternidade construídos por mulheres brasileiras que foram mães em dois contextos socioculturais diferentes: Brasil e Estados Unidos. Insere-se dentro de um projeto-matriz mais amplo, “Transições familiares como eventos narrativos: um estudo comparativo transgeracional” (CNPq), coordenado pela Dra. Ana Cecília de Sousa Bastos (Instituto de Psicologia, UFBA) e envolvendo uma parceria com os Drs. Jaan Valsiner e Roger Bibace (Clark University, Massachussets), e representa a primeira aproximação sistemática a uma análise intercultural, comparativa. Sendo um estudo de casos múltiplos, focalizando as narrativas destas mães, pretende-se compreender a experiência de maternidade e seus circunscritores culturais, bem como a mediação entre a cultura individual e coletiva, aplicando a figura da migração como uma metáfora à transição para a maternidade. O presente estudo adota um setting de conversação como espaço privilegiado para a coleta de dados. Foram participantes desse estudo 14 mulheres, conformando dois grupos de casos: sete mulheres brasileiras que tiveram filhos no Brasil e sete mulheres brasileiras migrantes que tiveram filhos nos EUA. A análise de dados se deu a partir da construção de sinopses das entrevistas e de categorias temáticas, que estruturam a descrição comparativa da experiência das mulheres nos dois contextos, através dos critérios de a familiaridade com os recursos da cultura no que concerne às informações e práticas relativas à gravidez e ao parto e à aproximação ou distanciamento com os valores da cultura local, utilização de recursos simbólicos e práticos, redes sociais e relações de afeto. Além disso, utilizou-se da abordagem do Self Dialógico para uma aproximação microgenética da dinâmica do Self na transição para a maternidade, considerando em maior profundidade dois dos casos analisados. Espera-se que os resultados obtidos permitam compreender as especificidades da transição para a maternidade, e do parto enquanto um marcador crucial deste processo, a partir dos circunscritores socioculturais dos dois contextos, possibilitando discutir o processo mais geral através do qual as práticas e discursos normativos de cada cultura são negociados no âmbito individual e familiar. A discussão afunila-se considerando um aspecto específico: a emergência do protagonismo da mulher que se torna mãe. This study aims at analyzing the meanings of motherhood built by Brazilian women who had delivered children in two different socio-cultural contexts: Brazil and US. It is part of a bigger project called “Family transitions as narrative events: a comparative transgenerational study” (CNPq), coordinated by Dr. Ana Cecilia de Sousa Bastos (Institute of Psychology, UFBA) and involving a partnership with Drs. Jaan Valsiner and Roger Bibace (Clark University, Mass.), and it is the first systematic approach to an intercultural, comparative analysis. As a multiple case study, focusing on mothers ‘narratives, it intends to understand the experience of motherhood and their cultural constraints, as well as the mediation between the individual and the collective culture, adopting the figure of migration as a metaphor to explain the transition to motherhood. The present study adopts a conversational setting to data collecting, and 14 women had been interviewed. These participants belong to two groups: seven Brazilian women who had their children in Brazil and seven migrant Brazilian women who had their children in US. Data analysis is based on the construction of summaries of the interviews and categories that structure the comparative description of women’s experience in the two contexts, using as criteria the degree of familiarity with the resources of culture in relation to information and practices relating to pregnancy and childbirth, the levels of adherence to the values of local culture, the possibility of using symbolic and practical contextual resources, the availability of social networks and affective relationships. The Dialogical Self Theory is the theoretical tool managed in order to have a microgenetic approach of the dynamics of the Self in the transition to motherhood, considering in depth two of the cases analyzed. The results allow understanding the specificities of the transition to motherhood, having childbirth as a central sign along this process, based on the socio-cultural constraints of the two contexts, and allowing to discuss the more general process by which practices and discourses norms of each culture are negotiated at the individual and family levels. The discussion narrows down considering a specific aspect: the emergence of agency for the woman who becomes a mother.

Abstract:
Refugee families who flee their homes as a result of conflict or persecution and face stressful migration experiences often struggle with trauma that may put them at increased risk for family discord and dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to use an interpretative phenomenological approach to explore the lived experiences of 8 refugee mothers resettled in the United States, in particular their experiences pre-, during, and post-migration, and to further examine the impact that these experiences had on their relationships to their children and families. The study also examined mothers' experiences with different forms of support systems post-resettlement. Participants were recruited through a resettlement agency in Roanoke, Virginia. This study illuminated a number of key findings to further inform research, theory, and practice with this population. Refugee mothers reported stressful and traumatic experiences across their migration, describing harsh living conditions, prolonged stays in refugee camps, and loss of children and other family members as some of the most stressful experiences. Once resettled, mothers spoke of continued challenges, including language barriers and inconsistent or arbitrary support from formal social support services. Findings also suggest resiliency among this sample of refugee families, with mothers highlighting strong relationships with their children during and post-migration. The current study further informs the family stress literature and contributes a strength-based framework to understanding challenges faced by refugee families across the migration period.
