No. of bitstreams: 1 MarianaMorenoEverton.pdf: 666969 bytes, checksum: 268b9d23b09fb7d25c2e43b35b545bbd (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-10-27 / Research whose subject is the illegal immigrants workers in Brazil coming from South American countries. The migratory movements occurred by the development of the humanity and in Brazil there were periods that the flow of immigrants was intense and in other not so much. The migrations to the country coming from the borderer countries get importance in the 1950‟s. This movement has been intensified since 1970 and ever since the numbers have been increasing. The main destiny of the immigrants has been the sewing factories established in São Paulo. However, these immigrants have been entering, staying illegally, establishing themselves as unidentified or clandestine and working in conditions similar to slave work. This study had as aim analyzing the condition of vulnerability created by the illegality of the immigrant workers under the social and legal perspective. The immigrations occurred between the years 2000 and 2010. It was found that many immigrants had worked and lived in degraded conditions in the sewing factories setting offenses to the fundamental rights of the human. The Brazilian State has launched actions aiming opposing this disorder. The research was carried out from the issue verification, followed by the formulation of hypothesis about the reality of irregular immigrants and their vulnerability in order to conclude the existence of the situation and transgressions to the elementary rights of the human being. The research is set up in bibliographical research that includes historical, sociological, legal, demographical studies as well as investigations in publications of International Organisms as United Nations (UN), International Organization for Migration (IOM), International Labor Organization (ILO), and national government agencies such as Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego e Ministério da Justiça. The study also includes documental research in the Constituição Federal of 1988, laws, International Treaties and demographical data of Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) e do Centro Latino Americano de Demografia (CELADE). / Pesquisa cujo tema é os trabalhadores imigrantes ilegais no Brasil oriundos de países da América do Sul. Os movimentos migratórios confundem-se com o desenvolvimento da humanidade e no Brasil houve períodos em que o fluxo de imigrantes foi intenso e em outros nem tanto. As migrações para o país oriundas dos países limítrofes adquirem importância na década de 1950. Tal movimento se intensifica a partir de 1970 e desde então os números só tem crescido. O principal destino dos imigrantes tem sido as oficinas de costura sediadas em São Paulo. Ocorre que muitos deles têm entrado, permanecido no país de forma irregular, estabelecendo-se na condição de ilegais ou clandestinos e trabalhando em regime análogo ao de escravidão. Este trabalho teve como fulcro analisar a situação de vulnerabilidade gerada pela irregularidade dos trabalhadores imigrantes sulamericanos sob as perspectivas social e jurídica, ocorridas entre os anos 2000 a 2010. Foi constatado que muitos imigrantes trabalhavam e viviam em condições degradantes nas confecções configurando agressões aos direitos fundamentais da pessoa humana. O Estado brasileiro tem empreendido ações no intuito de combater tal mazela e de acolher os imigrantes. A pesquisa foi realizada a partir da verificação do problema, seguida pela formulação de hipóteses sobre a realidade dos imigrantes irregulares e sua vulnerabilidade para se concluir pela existência da situação e agressões a direitos elementares ao ser humano. O estudo constitui-se em pesquisa bibliográfica que abrange estudos históricos, sociológicos, jurídicos, demográficos bem como estudos em publicações de Organismos Internacionais como a Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), Organização Internacional para as Migrações (OIM), Organização Internacional do Trabalho (OIT) e órgãos nacionais com o Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego, Ministério da Justiça e Ministério Público do Trabalho. O estudo abrange também a pesquisa documental na Constituição Federal de 1988, legislação infraconstitucional, Tratados Internacionais e dados demográficos do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) e do Centro Latino Americano de Demografia (CELADE).

The objective of this paper is to describe and analyze female irregular immigrants and their experience of how relationships with other people affect their lives and identity. A qualitative method is used in the study, because my main purpose is to analyse the respondents’ lives and life experiences. The analysis is based on a symbolic interactionism perspective. The results are also analyzed based on previous research and the concepts underlying the paper; irregular immigrants, discrimination, power and identity. In summary, the respondents have a clear picture of how they live and experience their relationship to others and themselves and how this affects their lives and identity. Their experiences affect their lives and influence their behaviour and identity when they interact with others. Their own view of their situation means that they are afraid to seek care or report sexual abuse, threats or other similar conditions. Other people in their proximity exploit their fear to discriminate and abuse. This fear is the main barrier for the respondents to feel free. The experience causes a loss of sense of belonging to humanity and life.

This study explores undocumented migrant’s access to social welfare and income support distributed by the non-profit and public sector in Stockholm. The study is conducted through interviews with representatives from the non-profit sector whose organisations and networks come in contact with undocumented migrants. According to Swedish law the social services have a responsibility to assist everyone who temporarily resides within the county. Consequently undocumented migrants have the right to assistance in acute situations. According to the testimonies given from the non-profit sector undocumented migrants have much difficulties acquiring all forms of aid from the social services. The respondents experiences show a multi-layered complex of problems giving reason for bureaucrats representing the public authority narrowing their services to undocumented migrants. The main focal points presented in this study are bureaucrats confusion regarding their own mission in relation to the migration board as well as the services restricted resources. Since undocumented migrants have difficulties claiming their rights in regard to the public sector, many turn to the non-profit sector for support. The result in the study shows that the non- profit sector functions as an informal social service bureau without the economical or legal framework to support it.

The increasing numbers of undocumented foreign nationals in South Africa not only has affected the provision of services provided by the local municipalities and the Department of Home Affairs but is also a huge challenge to the services provided by the South African police. The aim of this study was to explore the police experiences of dealing with undocumented foreign nationals in South Africa. A literature review was conducted to provide an overview of this problem nationally and internationally. Interviews, observations and document analysis were also considered to explore police experiences of dealing with undocumented foreign nationals. The findings of this study show that the South African police are “caught between a rock and a hard place” when dealing with undocumented foreign nationals within the constitutional framework of this country. They receive little support from the government and the relevant stakeholders on this matter, while on the other hand they are exposed to constant threats and lack of compliance from the undocumented foreign nationals and the criminal syndicates that facilitate illegal cross-border movements and the pressure from advocates of human rights principles and the media. These factors lead to increased frustrations among police officials and self-protective measures such as turning a blind eye to this problem. To deal with the problem the Inclusive and Interactive Refugee Management Model, which focuses on constant interaction among stakeholders, is recommended. Inclusive strategies are also recommended for dealing with undocumented foreign nationals. This model supports a Left Realism perspective, which advocates collective responsibility towards human concerns / Police Practice / D. Litt. et Phil. (Police Science)

<p>The aim of this study was to examine how the social services could investigate and support children of irregular immigrants within the boundaries of the law. More specifically it aimed to examine the legal possibilities and obstacles for the social services to support irregular immigrants, how the officials at the social services act considering the legal aspects, and how they reason morally and ethically when dealing with irregular immigrants. To answer the aim of the study the theory of positive law was used combined with qualitative interviews with two officials at the social services. Moreover a small quantitative telephone study with officials in the social services and with voluntary organizations was made. The study has used theories of sociology of law, law and ethics, and professional (civil) disobedience. The conclusions were that children of irregular immigrants are included by the Swedish law for social services, but are hindered from getting support by the legal obligation to inform the police authorities when the social services are dealing with foreigners who did not apply for a residence permit. There is a need for the officials to be extra committed in such cases and they break the obligation to inform to be able to support the children.</p>
