ROMANIAN IMMIGRANTS AT HOME AND ABROAD Guest Editors’ Foreword IRINA CULIC1 AND REMUS GABRIEL ANGHEL2 The question of ethnicity has been for a long time central to social science scholars researching international migration3. The role of ethnicity in processes of adaptation, integration, and assimilation of immigrants in the United States captured early on the attention of urban sociologists and policy makers (Thomas and Znaniecki, 1984; Gordon, 1964). The formation of hyphenated communities, ethnic political mobilisation, and the emergence of ethnic economies within immigrant societies of the West have been constant topics of scrutiny and extensive research. Initially, the study of immigrant settlement took on the viewpoint of their eventual absorption in destination societies, influenced by notions of exclusive citizenship and political danger represented by foreigners, prevalent at the beginning of the twentieth century. This approach tended to accentuate the importance of ethno-cultural bases of immigrant groups, directing the analysis around the progress of assimilation or the formation of ethnic enclaves. Present scholarship now looks at both sides of the process, bringing valuable insights into the changes in ethnic, racial, social and gender hierarchies made by immigrant presence and interaction with the local society (Ong, 1996; Jacobson, 1998). The focus on destination societies and the emphasis on ethnicity in immigrants’ incorporation are shifting studies towards events and processes taking place at origin (Brettell, 1986; Brubaker, 1998; Massey, Durand, and Malone, 2002), and towards the social space generated by immigrants, which maintain substantial and sustained relations between their home and settlement societies (Basch, Glick Schiller, and Szanton Blanc, 1994; Ong, 1999; Levitt, 2001). There is also increased interest in state politics of ethnic selection, and phenomena of large-scale ethnic migration (Groenendijk 1997; Münz and Ohliger 2003; Joppke 2005; Tsuda 2009). 1 Faculty of Sociology and Social Work, Babeş-Bolyai University and the Romanian Institute for Research on National Minorities, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, e-mail: [email protected]. 2 Romanian Institute for Research on National Minorities, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, e-mail: [email protected]. 3 Remus Gabriel Anghel received the support of the Romanian National Council for Scientific Research, grant CNCS PN-II-ID-PCE-2011-3-0602, entitled: “Recasting Migrants’ Voices. Local Perspective on Migration, Development and Social Change in Romania”. GUEST EDITORS’ FOREWORD Ethnicity is an extensively theorized concept, and a politically contested one (Weber, 1997 [1922]; Barth, 1969; Gellner, 1983; Smith, 1986; Eriksen, 1993; Kymlicka, 1995 and 2011; Balibar, 2004). Various scholars have recently questioned its explanatory power and analytical utility from different disciplinary angles. Sociologist Rogers Brubaker has repeatedly expressed discontent with the concepts of ethnicity and identity (Brubaker, 2004: 7-63). He warned against the error of taking categories of practice as analytical categories, thus assisting in reproducing and reinforcing reification, and against “groupism” - the tendency to take homogeneous and bounded groups as units of analysis of social life, charging academics’ groupism on their own political practice of identity. He concluded that questioning the unit of analysis, the ethnic group, may lead to contesting the domain of analysis, ethnicity itself. From another disciplinary standpoint, Kanchan Chandra (2006) set off to appraise the definitions and uses of ethnic identity in comparative political science. She arrived at the standpoint that ethnicity either did not matter or had not been shown to matter in explaining most outcomes researchers had attributed to it. She also proposed that this concept be replaced by empirically more appropriate ones, such as descent-based identities and identities based on sticky or visible attributes; and that the body of theories and datasets on ethnicity should be discarded and rebuilt anew on different foundations (Chandra, 2006: 422). Within migration studies, researchers increasingly found that the diverse and multi-faceted social relations immigrants develop at destination localities are often obscured by the “ethnic lens” (Glick Schiller, Çaglar, and Gulbrandsen, 2008). The focus on ethnic groups, ethnic institutions, and ethnic ties conceals the actual mechanisms of immigrant adaptation and incorporation, the construction of the distinction between “insiders” and “outsiders”, the perception of “assimilability,” the local discourse regarding immigrants, and the cultural practices structuring immigrants’ sociality (Baumann, 1996; Glick Schiller, Çaglar, and Gulbrandsen, 2008; Wimmer, 2004). Other factors such as the city scale, and their position with neoliberal processes of rescaling significantly immigrants’ pathways of settlement and transnationalism (Glick Schiller, Çaglar, and Gulbrandsen, 2008). While the decentering of the ethnic perspective has opened the space for new theorising and empirical research, we maintain that ethnicity continues to be relevant in understanding the context, course, and consequences of international migration. Embeddedness in social relations also takes the specific form of embeddedness in particular collectivities (Calhoun, 2003: 559). Though variable, ethnic belonging does shape immigrant settlement, and it is reconfigured by the relations immigrants build at destination and leave at home. Their continuing reference to the place of origin is crucial to their redefinition of the self. Distinguishing between transnational “ways of being” (actual engagement in everyday social relations and practices across borders) and “ways of belonging” (recognition and emphasis on the transnational elements of who they are), Levitt 4 GUEST EDITORS’ FOREWORD and Glick Schiller (2004) propose the possibility of simultaneity of sharing an identity while living outside the physical space of its sociality. Such a perspective requires an ample look on migration processes, which necessarily include the home society, the settlement society, and the social fields encompassing both of them, generated by immigrants’ acts. International migration always causes the rescaling of relations, spaces, and practices, and ethnicity in this context means a reconfiguration along the new territorial and symbolic boundaries (see also Wimmer, 2009). The following studies share the ample look on migration processes, allowing for the possibility that ethnic belonging appears both natural and necessary (Calhoun 2003: 559) to immigrants adapting to their new life, but also to families, communities, and groups left at home. They investigate the re-making of ethnicity, ethnic identity, and ethnic communities in and through international migration. This special issue is focused on Romanian international migration, one of the largest post-communist migrations in Western Europe. Remus Gabriel Anghel examines the case of post-communist international migration of Romanian Croats, revealing the different meanings ethnicity took for them. First, through the capitalization of language, ethnicity provided access to job openings and social ties with locals in Serbia. Following the ethnic

Anne Geerken 11057165 ES3-C 17.06.2014 Supervisor: Dr. P Shotton Second Marker: M Lak Romania and Bulgaria Anne Geerken and the Freedom of Workers in Germany Executive Summary As an essential basic principle of the European Union, the free movement of workers has been on everyone’s lips with the European Enlargement of Romania and Bulgaria in 2007. With the complete abolishment of the restrictions on the free movement of workers for Romanian and Bulgarian citizens in Germany in January 2014, critics feared an increased poverty migration and misuse of the German social welfare system. Amongst critics, especially CSU (Christian Social Union in Bavaria) party members fostered the hysteria and panic mongering by linking the Article 45 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to the increased migration of Romanian and Bulgarian citizens and referred to “social tourism”. With this term selected as unword of the year in Germany in 2013, the discussion reached its peak in the end of the year. The research question, “to what extend is the fear of poverty migration and the misuse of the German social welfare state by Romanian and Bulgarian citizens due to the removal of restrictions regarding the free movement of workers in Germany legitimate” provided the framework of a detailed gathering of statistical data from a variety of sources and qualitative research and furthermore the basis for an analysis and a critical discussion of the topic under study.

  • Immigrants' Economic and Social Integration in Host Country- from Preconceived Ideas to Real Life
    IMMIGRANTS' ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL INTEGRATION IN HOST COUNTRY- FROM PRECONCEIVED IDEAS TO REAL LIFE. CASE STUDY ON THE ROMANIANS' Valentina VASILE Elena BUNDUCHI Ana-Maria CIUHU Abstract Reticence towards Romanian migrants is a matter of interest in the analysis of migratory flows in the EU by country of origin. Since Romania's pre-accession to the European Union, among developed countries such as Great Britain, France, Germany, etc., there have been opinions on the fact that Romania's accession also implies increased pressure on the labor market entry in this developed countries . Moreover, even after the 7-year transition period in which some states have set up barriers for Romanian citizens, fears have been maintained that after 2014 new waves of migrants will enter the developed countries of the European Union. Although this estimate was far too exaggerated, and reality has proven through many good practices that Romanian migrants are useful for destination areas - they cover local employment deficits and their work is appreciated - there are still negative, even discriminatory opinions. The fear of the large number of Romanian migrants who have entered the European Union is materialized also by the fact that they are regarded as "social risk" people with "integration problems". Thus, in recent years public opinion has succeeded to provoc a political backlash (i.e. in France or UK) regarding Romanian migrants. The aim of our research is to analyze the situation of Romanian migrants in the destination countries and to highlight the factors of economic and social discrimination. Keywords: immigrant, labour market, discrimination, social vulnerability, Romania.

However, the views expressed in this report are those of the author, and the Commission is not responsible for any use of the information it contains. Political & social integration of migrant communities: a comparative study 2 POLITICAL & SOCIAL INTEGRATION OF MIGRANT COMMUNITIES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY The case of Belgium, France, Italy, Spain and Greece Publication coordinated by Céline Brandeleer and Federico Camporesi Political & social integration of migrant communities: a comparative study 3 Political & social integration of migrant communities: a comparative study 4 Introduction The opening of the European Year of Citizens 2013 represents a good opportunity to look at the rights EU citizens actually enjoy across Europe. Are those fundamental rights still guaranteed when they move and settle down in another member state? Are they welcomed to participate in local political or civil dynamics? Whatever the reason, European citizens are often moving and settling down in European member states other than their country of origin but their participation in the democratic life of their immigration countries remains very low. This is why the European think tank Pour la Solidarité and 5 other European partners set up the project ―Access to Rights and Civil Dialogue for All‖, co-financed by the DG justice programme “Fundamental rights and citizenship” whose main aim was to address the lack of migrants‖ participation to the political life of the host countries. Furthermore, the project aimed at increasing the access to information available to European citizens residing in a member state other than their own, providing them with incentives to vote and stand in municipal and European elections, and raising awareness about fundamental rights and the fight against racism and xenophobia.
