This ‘local turn’ has not only initiated a rethinking of the local level as an independent level of migration policy-making but also broadened the discourse on how migration processes actually change cities. Therefore, the thematic issue at hand seeks to understand how migration-led development processes in cities promote and shape institutional change, and which actors transform policies, structures, and discourses on migration in different settings. It questions how migration-related issues in urban development are being handled and transformed by local state and civil society actors. With 11 empirical articles on local negotiations of migration in urban development in different settings, this thematic issue applies an institutional change perspective on local migration policy-making to contribute to a broader understanding of migration-led development in both urban and migration studies. When it comes to clearly capturing migration-led institutional change in urban development and plan- ning, the contributions demonstrate great heterogeneity. They reveal that research on migration-led institutional change still has many biases and is very dependent on theoretical perspectives, positionalities of researchers, and the local context of the case studies.

  • From Designers to Doctrinaires: Staff Research and Fiscal Policy Change at the Imf
    FROM DESIGNERS TO DOCTRINAIRES: STAFF RESEARCH AND FISCAL POLICY CHANGE AT THE IMF Cornel Ban ABSTRACT Soon after the Lehman crisis, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) surprised its critics with a reconsideration of its research and advice on fiscal policy. The paper traces the influence that the Fund’s senior man- agement and research elite has had on the recalibration of the IMF’s doctrine on fiscal policy. The findings suggest that overall there has been some selective incorporation of unorthodox ideas in the Fund’s fis- cal doctrine, while the strong thesis that austerity has expansionary effects has been rejected. Indeed, the Fund’s new orthodoxy is con- cerned with the recessionary effects of fiscal consolidation and, more recently, endorses calls for a more progressive adjustment of the costs of fiscal sustainability. These changes notwithstanding, the IMF’s adaptive incremental transformation on fiscal policy issues falls short Elites on Trial Research in the Sociology of Organizations, Volume 43, 337 369 À Copyright r 2015 by Emerald Group Publishing Limited All rights of reproduction in any form reserved ISSN: 0733-558X/doi:10.1108/S0733-558X20150000043024 337 338 CORNEL BAN of a paradigm shift and is best conceived of as an important recalibra- tion of the precrisis status quo.

    H-Urban Stur on Li, 'Ethnoburb: The New Ethnic Community in Urban America' Review published on Thursday, August 20, 2009 Wei Li. Ethnoburb: The New Ethnic Community in Urban America. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2009. xvii + 214 pp. $56.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8248-3065-6. Reviewed by Heather M. Stur (University of Southern Mississippi) Published on H-Urban (August, 2009) Commissioned by Sharon L. Irish Maintaining Diversity in U.S. Suburbs Classic American images of suburbia usually depict white, middle-class, native-born families living out the “American Dream.” Immigrants, on the other hand, remained in urban ethnic neighborhoods, often cramped and crime-ridden, until they saved enough money to move to the suburbs and assimilate into mainstream white society. However, beginning in the 1960s and continuing through the present, a number of political and economic conditions have led to the creation of what Wei Li calls “ethnoburbs”-- suburban neighborhoods dominated residentially and commercially by non-white ethnic groups. Focusing specifically on Chinese ethnoburbs in Los Angeles County, Li draws widely on U.S. Census data to argue that the global economy, geopolitics, and changes in U.S. immigration policies spurred the development of ethnoburbs in which immigrants of diverse income and educational levels create communities with class stratification and both international and local businesses. Li opens her study by situating it within the theoretical literature on racial and spatial formation before developing her concept of the ethnoburb. Unlike urban immigrant “ethnic enclaves,” in which the majority of residents are low-income and limited in employable skills, ethnoburbs draw a wide range of immigrants, from wealthy, highly educated entrepreneurs to poor, unskilled workers.

  • From Chinatown to Ethnoburb: the Chinese in Toronto
    The 5th WCILCOS International Conference of Institutes and Libraries for Chinese Overseas Studies Chinese through the Americas May 16‐19, 2012 Vancouver, B.C. Canada From Chinatown to Ethnoburb: The Chinese in Toronto Arlene Chan Retired librarian, Toronto Public Library The definition, face, and location of Chinatowns have changed significantly as Chinese communities establish themselves inside and beyond their boundaries. This paper demonstrates that both the older and contemporary Chinatowns in the Greater Toronto Area have developed in response to patterns of Chinese migration relative to the socio- economic, political, and cultural status of the Chinese in Canadian society. The history of the Chinese in Canada has been examined in many historical works, such as by Morton (1973), Con (1982), and Lai (1988). On the narrower subject of the Chinese in Toronto, academic research is extensive on a variety of topics reflecting the complexity and diversity of the Chinese communities, including the landmark papers of the early Chinese community by Mah (1977; 1978). The transition out of the downtown core into the suburbs has been studied, as by Lo 1997; however, only one book, Toronto’s Chinatown, has been published (Thompson, 1989) and this one focuses on its social organizations. My paper draws upon the qualitative findings of a literature search and interviews with descendants of the early Chinatown residents and business owners, as well as my own first-hand experiences. Having grown up in what-is-now-called Old Chinatown, I identified and interpreted the myriad and confluence of factors that has affected the settlement patterns of the Chinese in Toronto.

  • Race, Ethnicity, and Income Segregation in Los Angeles

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: We thank the UCLA Ziman Center for Real Estate Howard and Irene Levine Program in Housing and Social Responsibility and Haynes Foundation for their generous funding. We would also like to thank the staff of the UCLA Center for Neighborhood Knowledge for providing support. RACE, ETHNICITY, AND INCOME SEGREGATION IN LOS ANGELES ABSTRACT There is a disagreement amongst scholars about how much income differences play in generating residential segregation. While most social scientists point to individual prejudices and institutional racism, others counter that segregation is a byproduct of systematic economic differences. For example, some minority groups are poorer and are thus disproportionately concentrated in low-income neighborhood. This paper examines 1) the demographic and socio- economic transformation of Los Angeles from 1960 and onward 2) the role of race and ethnicity in the spatial geographic housing patterns, with a specific focus on levels of segregation, and 3) whether racial segregation could be explained by systematic differences in income across racial/ethnic groups. The findings indicate that although black-white segregation has been decreasing steadily, segregation remains high while increasing amongst Hispanics. From comparing these observed dissimilarity indices and census tract majority groups with simulated numbers based on income, this study also finds that income differences alone do not explain residential segregation and that many other factors (including race) come into play.

  • Diverse Experiences of the Children of Asian Immigrants Min Zhou UCLA
    Draft, 05/01/2017 Comments welcome, please do not cite without authors permission. Growing Up under the Shadow of the Model Minority: Diverse Experiences of the Children of Asian Immigrants Min Zhou UCLA Carl L. Bankston III Tulane University Presented at the meeting on “Children of Immigrants in New Places of Settlement,” the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Cambridge, MA, April 19-21, 2017. Abstract: Asians Americans are the fastest growing racial minority in the United States largely due to rapid immigration in the past 40 years. Although they comprise less than six percent of the total U.S. population, they are highly visible in professional occupations, and their children, coming of age since the 1990s, are making their way into the country’s prestigious universities and primary sectors of the labor market. A common perception is that Asians in the U.S. are the “good” immigrants — doctors, engineers, scientists, and prosperous business owners, or that their children are “good” students—academically high achievers and math or techno wizards poised to a successful future. This paper will explain how positive perceptions reinforce the model minority stereotype and how this stereotype glosses over critical issues confronting the children of Asian immigrants, especially those who don’t fit that stereotype and those who live in places distant from their coethnic communities. Introduction Asians Americans are the fastest growing racial minority in the United States. Their numbers have increased by 60-percent over the last decade, largely due to international migration. Although they comprise less than six percent of the U.S.

  • A WAY to CHINESE IMMIGRANTS' AMERICAN DREAM B
    ABSTRACT SPATIAL TRANSFORMATION AND INTERNAL MIGRATION AMONG CHINESE ETHNOBURBS -A WAY TO CHINESE IMMIGRANTS’ AMERICAN DREAM by Wan Yu This paper aims to analyze the spatial transformation of Chinese American’s “ethnoburbs” and the migration trends among them. With well-established Chinese Americans moving out of the old “ethnoburbs” to the new ones and new immigrants filling into the old “ethnoburbs”, the population of both old and new “ethnoburbs” is increasing, but the internal migration flows reflect the spatial transformation of the Chinese suburban communities. Using a comparative analysis of community landscape, spatial patterns, socioeconomic status of residents, and public services between the old “suburban Chinatown” Monterey Park and the newly thriving Chinese “ethnoburb” Rowland Heights in suburban Los Angeles, this paper examines the disparities and connections between old and new Chinese “ethnoburbs”. The transformation of Chinese “ethnoburbs” and internal migration flows among them reflect a way to achieve Chinese immigrants’ American Dream.

In his analysis, transracial identities generate uneasy resonances with not only the dark histories of racial passing, but also the contemporary realities of racial oppression. How the transgender experience opens up new possibilities for thinking about gender and race In the summer of , shortly after Caitlyn Jenner came out as transgender, the NAACP official and political activist Rachel Dolezal was "outed" by her parents as white, touching off a heated debate in the media about the fluidity of gender and race. Ja Du, a trans woman who was born Caucasian but now considers herself Filipina, created a Facebook page and community for others who self-identify as transracial. The use of the term to describe changing racial identity has been criticized by members of the transracial adoption community. Transgender identities have moved from the margins to the mainstream with dizzying speed, and ethnoracial boundaries have blurred. This is a timely, judicious, and tremendously thoughtful and learned investigation into present-day debates. Mail address P. Rogers Brubaker. The New York Times. By rethinking race and ethnicity through the multifaceted lens of the transgender experience—encompassing not just a movement from one category to another but positions between and beyond existing categories—Brubaker underscores the malleability, contingency, and arbitrariness of racial categories. How the transgender experience opens up new possibilities for thinking about gender and race.
