In the light of social-history psychology, this work aims to highlight the role of the school in the process of exclusion/inclusion regarding migrant students. To do so, we sought to know the experience of that child in the school context, analyzing the relationship of this child with other subjects, their educational achievements, as well as their senses and affections related to school, teacher, colleagues and the migration process, focusing on forms of prejudice and discrimination. To meet these goals, data collection was performed in a public school in the city of São Paulo, where 26 observations were conducted in a 4th graders classroom, in addition to individual meetings with 9 selected children. More information was obtained through conversations with the class teacher and a substitute teacher. The subjects of research are 7 students identified as migrants. The teachers and other students were included in the research analisys as they were related to these children and involved in the situation investigated. In the analysis of this material 4 themes were identified, which synthesize the senses and affections of women teachers, the situations of prejudice, the process of teaching and learning, and the regional identity of the children identified as migrants. The analysis approach is based on affectivity as it reveals more clearly how the individual is affected by social circumstances. These reflections el1aBleus to understand that children considered migrants are included in a perverse manner in school as they do not find space to express themselves and develop their identities, experiencing relationships based on prejudice and discrimination that cause an ethical-political suffering and limit their ability to evolve their autonomy in the process of teaching and learning. These children are blamed for the difficulties that they experience at school, being prevented from developing their potential. The analysis of the observed situation also concluded that the school has not regarded the regional difference as a factor of an inclusive education / O distanciamento da realidade social é uma caraterística que pode ser ainda observada na escola contemporânea, que acredita estar contribuindo para o fim da desigualdade social, por oferecer oportunidade de estudo para todas as crianças, mas acaba não cumprindo o seu papel de inclusão, já que adota uma postura homogeneizante, desconsiderando as diferenças trazidas por seus alunos. À luz da Psicologia Sócio-Histórica, este trabalho tem por objetivo evidenciar o papel da escola no processo de exclusão/inclusão no caso do aluno migrante. Para tanto, buscou-se conhecer a vivência dessa criança no contexto escolar, analisando as relações dessa criança com os outros sujeitos, seu aproveitamento escolar, bem como seus sentidos e afetos relacionados à escola, ao professor, aos colegas e ao processo de migração, dando destaque às formas de preconceito e de discriminação. Para atender a esses objetivos, a coleta de dados foi realizada numa escola pública da cidade de São Paulo, onde foram realizadas 26 observações numa sala de 43série, além de encontros individuais com 9 crianças selecionadas. Também foram obtidas informações por meio de conversas com a professora titular da turma e com uma professora substituta. Os sujeitos da pesquisa constituem-se em 7 alunos identificados como migrantes. As professoras e os outros alunos foram incluídos na discussão por estarem envolvidos na situação pesquisada e relacionados a essas crianças. Na análise desse material, identificam-se 4 núcleos de sentido, que sintetizam os sentidos e afetos das mulheres professoras, as situações de preconceito, o processo de ensino e aprendizagem e a identidade regional das crianças identificadas como migrantes. Nessa análise é dado enfoque, à afetividade, pois é ela que revela com mais clareza como o indivíduo é afetado pelas condições sociais. As reflexões permitem compreender que as crianças consideradas migrantes são incluídas de forma perversa na escola, já que não encontram espaço para se expressarem e desenvolverem suas identidades, além de vivenciarem relações de preconceito e de discriminação que provocam um sofrimento ético-político e limitam sua possibilidade de autonomia no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Essas crianças são responsabilizadas pela dificuldade escolar, sendo impedidas de desenvolver suas potencialidades. A análise da situação estudada permite ainda concluir que a escola não tem considerado a diferença regional como um fator que diz respeito à educação inclusiva

儘管中國的全國發展著重在教育並嚴格實行九年義務教育法令，然而數以百萬計的中國移民孩童仍被排除在國家教育體制之外。我的論文探討中國內部由鄉村移向都市的這群移民孩童的受教權。這篇研究著重在武漢市地方政府不同政策的實施，這篇研究實地到武漢、北京進行田野研究，尤其聚焦在這群移民兒童在這兩座城市所面對的心理障礙上。 近年來，部分市政府已實行移民孩童教育體系整合的改革，而武漢市正是其中採用公共導向模型來解決此議題的城市之一。雖然這些改革在武漢市相當多數的移民者上獲得成功，然而北京市政府卻在各行政區內推動這些相關政策遭遇困難。 然而，就在北京市政府官員因懼怕更多移民人口流入北京市，而猶豫是否要將移民孩童納入公共教育的一環時，此舉卻導致對這些孩童在制度與心理上更嚴重的歧視。此篇研究認為此種歧視並邊緣化移民人口的態度會造成城鄉人口之間的衝突與仇視。相反地，長遠來看，替移民學子推行更完整且公平的社會福利政策，將能吸引並留住更多高品質的移民勞工。因此，為達到教育平等的目標，需要將其教育平等與社會發展目標相互整合 / Despite China’s national emphasis on education and the central government’s strict implementation of a 9-year compulsory education law, millions of Chinese migrant children are still excluded from the state-run education system. My thesis will examine the education rights of migrant children in China migrating from rural to urban cities; I will research the different policy implementations by the local administrations in this regard in Wuhan city, where I did a field study, and in Beijing, and will in particular focus on the psychological barriers these migrant children confront in these two cities. Recently, some city governments have implemented reforms aimed at integrating migrant children into their state-run schooling system and Wuhan is one of these cities applying the public-oriented model to deal with this issue. While these reforms have been carried out successfully in Wuhan where there is a relatively large quantity of migrants, the Beijing government has experienced difficulty to properly apply the regulations in each of the city’s administrative districts at the same level. While the Beijing city officials hesitated to include migrant children in public education with the fear of more migrants flooding into the city, this approach has led to greater discrimination against these migrant children both institutionally and psychologically. I argue in the conclusion that this attitude to marginalize the migrant populations could result in dissatisfaction and greater hostility between urban and migrant populations. On the contrary, the strategy of providing more comprehensive and equitable social benefits for migrant students attracts and retains more highly skilled migrant workers in the long term. Thus, the goal of achieving educational equity needs to be integrated with social development goals.

Notre recherche a pour objet le processus de légalisation des écoles créées par des travailleurs paysans en ville pour scolariser leurs enfants. Contrairement aux chercheurs qui essayent jusqu’à présent de donner une explication factuelle du phénomène, nous avons souhaité en faire un laboratoire pour éclairer la question suivante : comment des initiatives privées émergent pour devenir des projets porteurs de bien commun et comment le bien commun évolue pour devenir un bien public et réformer la gouvernance de la Cité ? Plus brièvement, nous souhaitons clarifier le rôle de la personne dans les changements sociaux. Cette recherche s’est attachée à montrer ce qui se passe effectivement en Chine, notamment le rôle dynamique des initiatives privées dans les évolutions politiques et institutionnelles du pays, à travers l’exemple des directeurs d’écoles d’enfants migrants. Sur le plan théorique, la recherche a été conduite à mettre à l’épreuve une théorie socioanthropologique de la personne, dépassant l’habituelle dichotomie entre l’individuel et le collectif, et à vérifier comment celle-ci, avec ses capacités instituante et éthique, participe à l’émergence et à la construction du bien publicet à l’évolution de la Cité / This study focuses on the legalization process of schools created by migrant workers of rural origin in order to educate their children. Unlike researchers who have tried so far to give a factual explanation of the phenomenon, we aim to take this case as a laboratory to shed a light on the following question: how do private initiatives emerge to become projects embodying a common good and how does the common good evolve into a public good and reform the governance of the City? Morebriefly, we want to clarify the role of the person in social change. Our research seeks to demonstrate what is actually happening in China, in particular the dynamic role of private initiatives in the political and institutional evolutions of this country, taking as example directors of schools for migrant children. On the theoretical side, the study was conducted to test a socioanthropological theory of the person, beyond the usual dichotomy between the individual and the collectivity, and see how the person, with his or her instituant and ethical capacities, participate in the emergence and construction of the public good and the evolution of the City

Cette thèse cherche à comprendre comment les mineur.e.s isolé.e.s en situation de migration, arrivé.e.s sans représentant légal sur le territoire français, peuvent bénéficier de la protection de l’enfance. Arrivé.e.s sur la scène de l’évaluation de la minorité et de l’isolement, ces jeunes migrant.e.s sont soumis.e.s à une épreuve de crédibilité narrative, comportementale et physique : ils ou elles doivent dévoiler leurs récits, leurs corps et leurs expressions non verbales en restant à tout prix un « enfant » aux yeux de ceux qui les jugent. Plusieurs questions sont alors posées : comment se construit le jugement de l’âge ? comment se forment les décisions de classement entre les « vrais » et les « faux » mineurs ? comment les acteurs de la protection de l’enfance sont-ils amenés à mobiliser des arguments, critères et justifications qui mènent à des pratiques de « gestion migratoire » ? Pour étudier les pratiques du jugement dans ce contexte d’incertitude qu’est l’évaluation de la minorité et de l’isolement, je propose donc une analyse de la sphère interne institutionnelle. A partir d’une enquête de terrain réalisée entre octobre 2014 et novembre 2016, d’abord dans un lieu d’évaluation de la minorité et de l’isolement géré par l’association France terre d’asile en région parisienne, puis auprès des différents acteurs de la « distribution » de la protection dans différents départements parisiens, et enfin autour de deux campements urbains auto-gérés par des migrant.e.s, cette thèse interroge, en étudiant le « quotidien » de l’institution, la façon dont les mineur.e.s isolé.e.s sont jugé.e.s, étiqueté.e.s et sélectionné.e.s avant d’avoir accès – ou non – à la protection de l’enfance. / This research seeks to understand how unaccompanied migrant children, that have arrived on French territory without a legal guardian can access child protective services. Arrived on the stage of the assessment of age and isolation, these young migrants’ narrative, behavioral and physical credibility is tested. Through their narratives, physical and non-verbal expressions, these children must demonstrate to those who judge them that they are a “child”, at all costs. Consequently, several questions can be asked: How can age be judged? How are the decisions of classification between the "true" and "fake" minors taken? How are child protection actors brought to mobilize arguments, criteria and justifications which lead to practices of "migratory management "? To study the practices of judgment in this context of uncertainty, meaning the assessment of age and isolation, this dissertation offers an analysis of the internal workings of institutions. The field investigation was carried out between October 2014 and November 2016, firstly in a centre of evaluation of age and isolation managed by the association France terre d’asile in Paris region, then with the various actors in charge of “distributing" the protection in various Parisian departments, and finally in two urban camps that are self-managed by migrants. Based on this investigation and through the study of everyday life of the institution, this dissertation questions the way unaccompanied children are judged, labelled and selected before having access - or not - to child protection.

Objet de forts débats, la scolarisation des enfants immigrés en Europe est un défi pour tous les acteurs impliqués. L’objectif de cette thèse est de comparer, d’une part, les attitudes des enfants immigrés et, d’autre part, l’implémentation des systèmes éducatifs à Paris et à Bruxelles (Communauté francophone). La méthodologie s’appuie sur une enquête de terrain dans une perspective ethnographique avec des observations participantes et des entretiens dans quatre écoles élémentaires de chaque ville.Deux hypothèses sont formulées. La première suppose que ces enfants sont des acteurs sociaux actifs dans la gestion de situations de conflits et dans leur processus de socialisation en général. La seconde suggère que leurs expériences en tant qu’enfants immigrés mettent en cause le statu quo scolaire car elles dévoilent les contradictions des systèmes éducatifs par rapport à leurs principes de base. Le résultat le plus important est qu’il n’y a pas de différences significatives entre les écoles parisiennes et bruxelloises. La présence d’enfants immigrés exige de nouvelles réponses de la part des acteurs impliqués. L’École souffre ainsi d’une remise en cause de ses principes de base de normalisation et de discipline. Les difficultés à prendre en compte les immigrés et travailler avec eux, le décalage entre les cultures scolaire et non scolaire, les efforts vains pour soutenir la fiction de l’égalité, le manque de professionnalisation du personnel, génèrent des symptômes d’évitement, d’ennui collectif et individuel, et parfois même la peur chez certains adultes vis-à-vis des élèves immigrés – autant de symptômes qui contribuent à renforcer les phénomènes de ségrégation scolaire. / Object of strong debates, migrant children’s schooling is a challenge for all social actors involved.The objective of this thesis is to compare, on the one hand, migrant children’s attitudes, and, on the other hand, the implementation of programmes within primary school educational systems in Paris and Brussels (French community). Methodology includes fieldwork with an ethnographical perspective involving participant observations and interviews in four primary schools in each city.I make two hypotheses. First, migrant children are active social actors embedded in conflictual situations and in their socialisation process in general. Second, their experiences as migrant children challenge the status quo of the existing school system because they reveal the contradictions of educational systems in relation to their basic principles. The main result is that there are not many differences between primary schools in Paris and Brussels. The presence of migrant children shows that School which is sees its core principles of normalisation, discipline and formation challenged. Their presence requires new answers from all adults involved. Difficulties to acknowledge migrants and to work with them, gaps between schooling and extra-schooling culture, efforts to maintain the fiction of equality (égalité), the lack of professionalization of staff; all generate symptoms such as avoidance, collective and individual boredom, and even fear amongst some adults towards their migrant pupils. In turn, these symptoms tend to further increase the phenomenon of segregation in schooling.

Depuis la fin des années 1990, on assiste de plus en plus à l’arrivée en nombre important des enfants étrangers sur le territoire français et européen. Ils viennent de tous les continents et personne ne détient sur eux l’autorité parentale. Un phénomène sans précédent dans l’histoire de l’immigration européenne qui attise des tensions entre les pouvoirs publics et les associations de défense de droits de l’enfant. Le statut de ces mineurs isolés sur le territoire national demeure flou et leur intégration ressemble plus à ce que les associations qualifient de« parcours de combattant ». Relativement protégés par leur minorité, ils ne peuvent sereinement envisager de poursuivre ni un projet scolaire adapté, ni une insertion professionnelle fiable si leur situation administrative n’a pas été régularisée avant d’atteindre l’âge de 18 ans.En suivant le parcours institutionnel d’une dizaine des jeunes pendant près de 5 ans, cette thèse analyse le profil des jeunes migrants, les atouts et écueils de leur prise en charge dans une société d’accueil en pleine mutation législative, institutionnelle et sociétale. L’étude reconstitue, questionne et analyse les enjeux de parcours et de construction de vie pour les mineurs d’une part, les défis d’accompagnement de ce public pour les acteurs sociaux et institutionnels de l’autre. Enfin, cette thèse interroge et analyse également les pratiques belges relatives à l’accueil et à la prise en charge de ces enfants, permettant ainsi une comparaison des réponses apportées par les deux pays à la situation de ce public / Since the end of the 1990’s, we more and more attend to the arrival in huge numbers of foreign children on the French and European territory. They come from all continents and no one detains on them parental authority. An unprecedent phenomenon in the European immigration history which whips up tensions between authorities and defence associations of children’s rights.The status of these isolated minors on the national territory remains fuzzy and their integration is like more of what is qualified as an « obstacle course » by the associations. Relatively protected by their minority, they can’t ensure positively to carry on with neither an appropriate school project, nor a reliable professional insertion if their administrative situation hasn’t been regularised before they turn age 18. By following the institutional path of about ten youths for nearly 5 years, this thesis analyses the profile of young migrants, assets and pitfalls taken care in a society in legislative, institutional and societal transition.The study reconstructs, questions and analyses path’s stakes and life construction for minors on one hand, support challenges of this population for social actors and institutionals on the other hand. In short, this thesis interrogates and analyses too Belgian practices relating to receiving and caring for these children, thus enabling a comparison with answers brought by both countries to the situation of this public.

Les migrations constituent un phénomène transnational dont la gestion a traditionnellement occupé l’intérêt des Etats de destination des migrants dans l’exercice de leur souveraineté. Avec l’avènement de la mondialisation, le panorama migratoire s’est transformé. Les migrations occupent une place chaque fois plus importante dans les agendas des Etats ayant compris que la maîtrise des migrations nécessitait de la coopération et de l’action conjointe à l’échelle internationale. La gouvernance des migrations comporte tout un ensemble de défis tant pour les Etats de destination des migrants que pour les Etats d’origine et pour la communauté internationale dans son ensemble. D’une part se présente l’intérêt de contrôler l’arrivée des migrants très influencé par des conceptions sécuritaires; d’une autre part apparaissent les conceptions des migrations comme outils du développement qui visent à tirer profit des effets considérés comme positifs des migrations et restreindre ses effets négatifs. Et finalement nous constatons l’existence de circonstances pouvant mettre en danger les droits humains des migrants et face auxquelles des mesures doivent être prises pour assurer le respect total des droits de l’homme des migrants. Concilier les intérêts présents autour de la maîtrise des migrations n’est pas une tâche facile. Afin de trouver un cadre idéal pour la maîtrise des migrations et la protection des droits des migrants, nous explorons 5 hypothèses d’étude qui nous mènent à analyser la gestion mondiale migratoire, la gouvernance régionale des migrations (dans le cadre de l’Amérique latine et des relations bilatérales entre cette dernière et l’Union européenne), la protection des migrants en tant que personnes vulnérables titulaires des droits à vocation universelle, ainsi que la protection proposé par les Etats d’origine des migrants (le cas particulier de la Colombie). Les atouts et les défis de chaque espace de discussion sont analysés ainsi que leurs apports à la maîtrise des migrations et à la protection des migrants. / Migrations are a transnational phenomenon that its management has traditionally called attention from the destination states exercising its sovereignty. With the arrival of globalization, the migration perspective has changed. Migrations have an increasingly more important place in the government’s agenda, which has understood that migration management needed the cooperation and the joint action at an international level. The governance of migration involves multiple challenges for the destination countries as well as the countries of origin and for the international community. On one hand, it presents the interest of controlling the arrival of migrants, with a strong influence of security conceptions; on the other hand other ideas have immerged that consider migration as tools for development. Those ideas aim to profit from the effects that are considered as benefits of migration and to stop the negative effects. Finally, we consider the existence of the circumstances that can put in danger migrant’s human rights and for which some measures should be taken. Reconciling the interests surrounding the management of migration is not a simple task. For finding ideal management framework for the governance of migration and the protection of migrant’s human rights, we will explore 5 hypotheses. We will analyze the global administration of migration; the regional administration (in the framework of Latin America); the protection of migrants as vulnerable people having universal rights, as well as the protection from the migrant’s state of origin (in the particular case of Colombia). The assets and the challenges of each one of those discussion environments will be analyzed as well as its contributions to migration’s governance and migrant’s protection.

The aim of this study was to investigate unaccompanied migrant children (UMC )experiences, challenges and coping strategies in South Africa as they navigate their lives with no parental care and protection in a foreign country. The continuous inflow of UMC remains a major challenge globally and more so in South Africa. The inflow resulted in unaccompanied migrant children facing adverse challenges such as exploitation, marginalisation, discrimination and violation of human rights. In response to this influx, the South African Government embarked on several commendable initiatives, notwithstanding the national guidelines by the Department of Social Development, which unfortunately could not provide adequate guidance for social workers, on how to respond effectively to challenges facing UMC. The study was qualitative guided by exploratory, descriptive, and contextual designs. A sample was drawn using purposive sampling. Participants sampled for data collection were UMC and social workers tending them, from two shelters; one in the Limpopo and one in the Gauteng provinces, respectively. Data was collected using semi-structured interviews and analysed using Tesch’s eight steps of data analysis in Creswell (2013). The findings confirmed that unaccompanied migrant children do not receive satisfactory services from social workers who are mandated by the Department of Social Development to look after all the vulnerable children in South Africa. In addition, the findings further confirmed the contradictions and misalignment of legal frameworks that make it difficult for social workers to provide effective services to the UMC, thus exposing the latter to a continued plethora of daily challenges. Despite the magnitude of challenges presented by the host country, it emerged that unaccompanied migrant children demonstrate a range of coping mechanisms to survive the challenges experienced within the borders of South Africa. Prominent in the findings was the dissatisfaction of social workers regarding lack of clarity and inconsistencies in the current Social Development Guidelines on; Separated and Unaccompanied Children Outside their Country of Origin in South Africa. Based on these findings, recommendations are made for practice and additional guidelines were developed to enhance service delivery to the UMC. / Social Work / D. Litt. et Phil. (Social Work)

Due to the increasing number of rural-to-urban migration of middle-aged labors, some of the migrants’ children were left behind in the rural areas with one parent, grandparents, siblings or other relatives, however, some others migrated to the urban areas with one or both parents. To the left-behind children and migrant children in school age, there are different barriers and facilitators in rural and urban areas for their academic performance. This study is a systematic review with the aim of describing the academic performance in China for left-behind children in rural areas and migrant children in urban areas between the ages of six to eighteen. This systematic review was conducted by using four databases with an inclusion and exclusion criteria designed in advance. Articles on left-behind and migrant children were searched separately. 97 articles on left-behind children and 184 on migrant children were identified at first. 6 articles on left-behind children and 19 on migrant children were identified after abstract and title screening. Eventually, 8 articles in total were included into this study after the full text screening process. The results showed that, there are a number of barriers for academic performance of left-behind children, for example, the poor quality of school and the absence of mother. And for migrant children, there are more facilitators for academic performance comparing to left-behind children, for instance, they are more likely to have adequate support from parents. The limitations, further researches and practical implementations were also discussed in this study.

The issue of unaccompanied migrant children (UAM) in the European Union is one of the most acknowledged and one of the most under researched topics. Close to 100,000 minors arrived in Europe in 2015 alone, without parents or guardians. And more than 10,000 disappeared shortly after. These children have been and continue to be under high risk of human trafficking, child labour, sexual and physical abuse, and exploitation of some other kinds. It has been 6 years since the initial crisis, but the statistics are not getting better. Tendency remains as close to 19,000 UAMs have perished in the past 3 years, which accounts to 17 disappearances a day. Despite the European Union's commitment to protect the rights of UAMs, the conditions of these children are dire. In some member states the situation is so much poorer, that basic human rights are violated. This raises the following questions: Q1: Why does the EU struggle to adopt common policies on unaccompanied migrant children? Q2: How does the EU contribute to the disappearance of UAMs? Qualitative and quantitative data, as well as large amount of primary and secondary sources help navigate through the problem of UAMs. Content analysis of European media contributes to the illustration of perceptions towards migration and unaccompanied children.
