- PublicationAccès libreUneven Pathways to Local Power: The Political Incorporation of Immigrants’ Descendants(2025-02-12)
; ; Research focusing on the political incorporation of immigrants’ descendants is rather scarce, in contrast to the high level of scholarly attention paid to the case of foreign-born immigrants. This exploratory study addresses this gap by adopting a sociological and neo-institutionalist approach to investigate the trajectories leading to political involvement of children of immigrants elected to local parliaments across a selection of Swiss cantons. The analysis of the factors shaping their mobilization in relation to the features of local policies for immigrants’ integration and cantonal conceptions of citizenship sheds light on the variability of their political incorporation. The article thus makes a twofold contribution to the existing literature. First, it highlights the distinctive role played by local schools in the political socialization of immigrants’ descendants, compared to that of their Swiss-origin counterparts. Second, it shows the decisive impact of cantonal institutional and discursive contexts in shaping the categories that are relevant for political action, influencing collective identities, claim-making, and political mobilization. - PublicationAccès libreCrises, Migration and (Im)Mobility: Towards a Reflexive and Multilevel Approach(Neuchâtel : nccr - on the move, 2024-06)
;Vestin Hategekimana; ;Perrin, Maeva; ;Jessica Gale ;Simon Noori; ; ; ; Scholarly inquiry into the intersections of migration, mobility, and crisis has mainly focused on international migration. The scope of this scholarship underscores the continuing influence of methodological nationalism in the field. We argue for a broader exploration of mobility (and immobility) perspectives. Accordingly, we embrace an encompassing understanding of crises as particular events and structural conditions with rather “extensive and large-scale changes and effects” (Bergman-Rosamond et al. 2022: 5). We further adopt what Bösch et al. (2020: 5) call a reflexive perspective “in which the constructivist dimension remains acknowledged” without relativizing a more objectivist view of “the real causes and effects” of the crises in question. Our approach builds on the concept of the Migration-Mobility Nexus (see Piccoli et al. 2024) and its interplays (continuum, enablement, opposition, and hierarchy) to study the crisis-induced shifts between migration, mobility, and immobility. To understand the complex and potentially intertwined ways in which crises interact with the Migration-Mobility Nexus, we propose to combine a multilevel analysis of experiences, practices and agency, perceptions and attitudes, and governance.
