Transnational Tongans:The Profile and Re-integration of Return Migrants

Liava'a, Viliami Tupou Futuna January 2007 (has links)
This study contributes to the 'unwritten chapter' in migration studies, namely transnational return migration, with specific reference to Tongan migrants who have voluntarily returned to live in Tonga. Return migration of transnational Tongans is not 'permanent' as their mobility pre and post-return is characterised by circulation or repeated return rather than staying at 'home'. In examining the circulation of transnational Tongans, two new forms of return migration are identified -- 'return for career advancement' and 'ancestral return'. These additions to a new typology of return migration represent better the contemporary mobility system of transnational Tongans and suggest a means for addressing 'brain drain' through strengthening the 'Tongan-ness' of the diaspora while simultaneously stimulating economic development in the Kingdom. Despite these positive dimensions of return, re-integration is a 'bumpy' process, and there needs to be a holistic migration strategy if greater numbers in the Tongan diaspora are to return and make their potential contribution to sustainable development in the Island Kingdom.

Contribution de l'intérêt situationnel à une reconsidération de la satisfaction dans la formation pour adultes / Contribution of situational interest in the reconsideration of adult training satisfaction

Yennek, Nora 18 November 2014 (has links)
L’objectif de cette thèse est de proposer un rapprochement conceptuel entre deux formes de réactions en formation : la satisfaction, telle qu’elle est appréhendée dans le modèle de Kirkpatrick (1959a, 1959b, 1960a, 1960b), et l’intérêt situationnel tel qu’il est conceptualisé par Mitchell (1993), selon la perspective développementale de l'intérêt de Hidi et Renninger (2006). Pour atteindre cet objectif, dix études ont été réalisées. Les quatre premières études ont permis de développer et de valider deux questionnaires, le premier permettant de mesurer la satisfaction en formation, le second l’intention de retour en formation. Ces études apportent un soutien à une considération de la satisfaction en formation comme une satisfaction client puisqu’elle permet de prédire l’intention de retour en formation. Les cinq études suivantes ont permis de développer et de valider deux questionnaires : l’intérêt pour la formation, qui distingue l’intérêt individuel et l’intérêt situationnel, et l’intérêt thématique. Elles ont permis par ailleurs de proposer une modélisation de ces trois formes d’intérêt à partir de la distinction d'Ainley, Hidi, et Berndorff (2002). Enfin, la dixième étude a permis de mettre à l’épreuve un modèle de la satisfaction en formation prenant appui sur le modèle conceptuel de l’intérêt situationnel de Mitchell. Cette thèse a été menée dans le cadre d'une Convention Industrielle de Formation par la Recherche (CIFRE) en collaboration avec l'Association Nationale de la Recherche et de la Technologie (ANRT) et l’Institut de formation des industries de santé (Ifis) auprès de plus de 1100 salariés des industries de santé ayant suivi une formation présentielle à l’Ifis. / The aim of this thesis was to provide a conceptual link between two types of reactions in training: satisfaction, as it is understood in the Kirkpatrick model (1959a, 1959b, 1960a, 1960b), and situational interest as it is conceptualized by Mitchell (1993), with the developmental approach of interest by Hidi and Renninger (2006). The initial four studies have allowed us to develop and validate two surveys, the first to measure training satisfaction and the second to measure the intention to return for further training. These studies provide a basis for considering training satisfaction similar to customer satisfaction since it predicts intention to return for further training. Moreover, five other studies have allowed us to develop and validate two measurement tools: training interest, distinguishing individual interest and situational interest, as well as topic interest. These studies have also allowed us to build a model of three forms of interest with regards to the distinction of Ainley, Hidi, and Berndorff (2002). Finally, the tenth study challenges the model of training satisfaction based on the conceptual model of situational interest of Mitchell.This thesis was conducted as part of an Industrial Agreement for Research Training (CIFRE) in collaboration with the “Association Nationale de la Recherche et de la Technologie” (ANRT) and the “Institut de formation des industries de santé” (Ifis) with more than 1,100 French professionals from the pharmaceutical industry who received training at Ifis.
