  • Title: Major obstacles to control of irregular migrations: prerequisites to policy.
    Author: Moulier-boutang Y, Garson JP.
    Journal: Int Migr Rev; 1984; 18(3):579-92. PubMed ID: 12339923.
    Abstract:
    This paper examines 3 basic obstacles thwarting all attempts to reduce irregular migration. The 1st, rather well known and analyzed, underscores the dependency of all regulation of migratory flows on the system of economic and political relations between developed and developing countries. The 2nd obstacle resides in the persistance and growth of subsequent dependent irregular migration. This obstacle also reveals the relative autonomy of population movements compared with the employment situation in the labor market. The 3rd generally ignored obstacle is the role played by migration itself, particularly the discriminatory status of foreign workers in the labor market, in producing irregular migration.
