This paper focuses on settled migrants and calls for the construction of the right to respect for private life as an autonomous source of protection against expulsion under Article 8 ECHR. I contend that, as a core part of human existence, private life warrants meaningful protection. I posit that the fact that all settled migrants have established private life in the host State brings it to the...

BACKGROUND Between June 2012 and December 2013 Médecins Sans Frontières launched a pilot project with the aim of testing a strategy for improving timely diagnosis of active pulmonary TB among migrants hosted in four centres of identification and expulsion (CIE) in Italy. METHODS This is a descriptive study. For active TB case finding we used an active symptom screening approach among migrants...

Poles Apart? EU Enlargement and the Labour Market Outcomes of Immigrants in the UK The UK was one of only three countries to allow migrants from accession countries to enter their labour markets more or less without restriction following EU enlargement in May 2004. Therefore, it is important to establish the characteristics and labour market performance of migrants from these countries who have...

OBJECTIVES To explore if there is a difference in the perception and self reported quality of life between rural-to-urban migrants and urban groups. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cross-sectional study, secondary analysis of the PERU-MIGRANT study (PEru's Rural to Urban MIGRANTs Study). WHOQOL-Brief survey' s global scores and per specific domains obtained in the survey were compared using Kruskall-Wa...

We discuss a mathematical model of migration channel based on the truncated Waring distribution. The truncated Waring distribution is obtained for a more general model of motion of substance through a channel containing finite number of boxes. The model is applied then for case of migrants moving through a channel consisting of finite number of countries or cities. The number of migrants in the...

In this study, we use data of the German Mikrozensus to explore first and second birth behavior of migrants' descendants. Whereas prior waves of the Mikrozensus only included respondents' citizenship, in the survey years 2005 and 2009 also parental citizenship has been surveyed. This allows us to identify respondents' migrant backgrounds, even if they have German citizenship. We distinguish tho...

I present new evidence on the incidence and wage associations of over-education among migrants to the UK from the ‘A8’ EU accession countries of Central and Eastern Europe from 2004-2011. Using the Labour Force Survey, I employ a novel strategy to maximise the number of migrants drawn from the dataset over the period of interest, creating a survey sample of A8 migrants of unprecedented size. I ...

Using panel data on 12 European source countries that are followed for 26 years (1873-1898), this paper studies agespecific emigration rates and the age composition of U.S. immigration. Two age groups are the focus of attention, 15-40 and over 40. Emigration-rate models and compositional models that satisfy adding-up conditions are estimated by the Hausman-Taylor Instrumental Variable approach....

The effect of the cholinergic agonist carbachol (CCh) on backpropagating action potential (bAP)-evoked Ca transients in distal apical and basal dendrites of layer 2/3 pyramidal neurons in the primary visual cortex of rats was studied using whole-cell recordings and confocal Ca imaging. In the presence of CCh (20 μM), initial bAP-evoked Ca transients were followed by large propagating secondary ...

We investigate the transition outside the parental home for second generation migrants in Spain, a “latest-late” transition to adulthood country which has recently become a destination for migrants. We simultaneously take into account two sources of heterogeneity: the country of origin and the province of destination in Spain. Micro-census data provide an opportunity to study all large migrant ...
