Its overall aim is to improve migration management between India and the EU, strengthen EU-India relations, and produce in-depth empirical knowledge about the different migration streams and pathways of Indian nationals in the EU. Its specific goals include providing: 1. Evidence based research for more informed policy making and state intervention. 2. Improved source country capacity in managing migration. 3. Raising awareness among potential migrants of the risks of irregular migration. 4. Collaboration with civil society groups. 5. Empirical research and analysis of Indian communities across the EU, and their impact. The project is led by the Indian Centre for Migration in Delhi with the partnership of the Migration Policy Centre, RSCAS, EUI.

This paper analyses the French media coverage of this community in recent years. Compared to other French communities, the Indian community is seen as discrete and it is not widely covered in the media: few articles having been written. These articles can be broken down into two sets: articles covering local events, with a focus on the community; and articles covering broader events that define relations between France and India. Several topics are detailed in the paper: higher education, business and investment, crime, culture, integration and religion. The two main themes in media coverage are: business opportunities between the two countries and religious tensions. Indian culture is little covered in the French press. This might be explained by historical factors, the small size and the relative (economic and integration) success of this community.

Introduction The Indian diaspora has only recently been recognized in France. It is, unlike other Asian groups like the Chinese diaspora, small and diverse. The first migrations were linked to the colonial past of France and its outposts in India (Pondichery, Karikal, Yanaon, Mahe and Chandernagor). Thousands of families emigrated after France withdrew from India in the 1950s. Other political and economic events added to this migration process. For example, in the 1990s, thousands of Sikhs flew from India for political reasons. These different waves of migration established a complex and diverse Indian community in France. It is a small community compared to the Sub-Saharan African and North African communities, might partly explain its relative invisibility in the media. Another factor in its invisibility is successful integration. However, the ban on ethnic statistics in France makes it difficult to make precise estimates about minorities in France. This paper analyses French media coverage of the Indian community in the last four years. Several topics are covered: higher education; business and investment; crime; culture; integration; and religion. Compared to other communities, the Indian community is seen as discrete and is little covered by the media. The articles we have break down into to: ones on the community in France; and articles covering the political and economic relation between France and India. Local newspapers tend to report news about the Indian community only in Paris and its suburbs, where most of the community is based. General and national newspapers develop broad topics about business relations between the two countries, main cultural differences and discussions about the notion of laicism. All have a focus on France and its own (economic and religious) tensions. In this study, it appears that two main types of events have been widely covered: business opportunities

    Tableau des montants totaux d’aides pour les 200 titres de presse les plus aidés Les chiffres annuels d’aides à la presse doivent être lus avec quelques précautions. En particulier, la compensation du tarif postal, première aide publique de soutien au secteur de la presse, est versée à La Poste pour compenser les coûts de la mission de service public de transport postal de la presse (validée par les autorités européennes), coûts évalués par l'opérateur. Enfin, à ce jour, l'aide à l’exemplaire n'est calculée que pour les titres dont la diffusion est communiquée à l’OJD; certains chiffres de diffusion sont d’ailleurs susceptibles d’évoluer à la marge.

  • Put at the Test in the Terrorist Threat Era
    Eötvös Loránd University A.Y. 2017/2018 THE “HOMELAND OF HUMAN RIGHTS” PUT AT THE TEST IN THE TERRORIST THREAT ERA France, collective memory and counterterrorism Author: Mathilde Bénard Director: Orsolya Salát 1 I would like to thank Orsolya Salát, my research director, for her advice and confidence throughout the semester, The EMA programme, which has truly been a unique, rich and pushing experience, intellectually and humanly ; The EMA staff, who made it possible by always staying supportive and demanding with the 90 of us, All those with whom I shared this year, Laura and Kristina, my Foscarini fellows and the best partners I could have thought of to begin this new experience with ; Victoria and Eva, for the discussions, exchanges, doubts, but most of all the laughs we shared in this now city of ours, Finally, my family, Agnès and Cécile, of course, And my parents, who supported and trusted in me, as they always do... merci. 2 ABTRACT The impact and instrumentalization of collective memory has been broadly addressed in nationalist/ authoritarian contexts, albeit very much less in democratic ones. France's national identity has been very much constructed on its rich History, and still upholds today –to the world but most of all for its citizens– an image of “Homeland of Human rights” rooted on the 1789 French Revolution. The thesis questions this image as to its origins, validity and perpetration through the years. In the light of this idealized national image, it then addresses the current counterterrorism measures adopted by the French State since 2015 Charlie Hebdo dreadful attacks.

  • Hub for Entrepreneurs
    AUGUST 2018 A Growing (Opportunistic) Hub for Entrepreneurs: A Report on the Innovation Ecosystem in Paris, France Annie Woodbridge Hudson | iDiplomat 2018 Executive Summary As the economic capital of one of Europe’s biggest economies, Paris is a natural location for a strong and vibrant innovation ecosystem. Yet it has historically fallen short of that designation. Rather, much more of the attention with regards to innovation has fallen on other cities such as London and even, increasingly, Berlin. Deeper analysis would indicate that Paris has vast potential to rise in the world of innovation powerhouses, but suffers as a result of an imbalance in its innovation ecosystem. Applying a research structure developed by MIT’s REAP Program, it becomes clear that the city boasts strong and lasting Innovation Capacity (I-Capacity) but has been quite limited historically in its Entrepreneurial Capacity (E-Capacity). And, according to MIT’s research, while each capacity can exist independently, neither I- Capacity of E-Capacity is enough to create a truly dynamic innovation ecosystem. One established, the two reinforce each other and establish a lasting system that is beneficial for all involved. More directly, Paris’ dynamic university system and strong commitment to R&D both on public and private levels create a vibrant landscape for innovation and research to thrive, yet the city remains mired in a complex bureaucratic system (the result of decades of centralization) that limits the agility of entrepreneurs. Nonetheless, the innovation landscape looks to be gradually changing. There are an increasing number of entrepreneurs eager to mentor a younger generation and to offer the resources necessary to establish burgeoning companies; and the government, too, has expressed a bullish willingness to make the bureaucratic changes necessary to make the entrepreneurial landscape of Paris more appealing.
