- W100440503 abstract "The recent findings of geneticists have suggested, in experiments with mice, that memories of life experience can be transmitted to future offspring (ARAI, J. A. – LI, S – HARTLEY, D. M. – FEIG, L. A. 2009). Similar transgenerational response (TGR) has also been investigated in humans, and scientists suggest “a closer degree of integration between environment and biological evolution” than was previously thought (KAATI, G. – BYGREN, L. O. – PEMBREY M. – SJOSTROM, M. 2007:789). This phenomenon seems to indicate that a person’s social life and the quality of that person’s experience are of essential importance in their influence on future generations whose ancestors’ memories will be embedded in their own. The process of immigration presents various issues for researchers who are aware of the complexities and of the significant impact on both the people who participate in the activity of immigration and those who are releasing or receiving them. In the future, we might benefit from the discovery of the ways in which these enormous changes in a person’s life can result in consequences for future generations. But what are the elements that have an impact on the first generation of immigrants? Which groups and which individuals are playing the most important roles in this process? And how do these factors influence the integration process for the immigrants? What compels citizens of some places to leave their homes to establish a new life in a foreign environment, while other citizens do not? Are there any shared characteristics and common reasons for leaving their homelands, and do different groups experience common difficulties? Is immigration beneficial for the places that receive immigrants, and does it benefit the places of origin? These are only some of the important questions to answer. This paper describes the characteristics of an immigrant group from the former Soviet Union in Washington State and focuses on the new arrivals who left one of the former Soviet Union’s countries after perestroika. This study aims to reveal this group’s diversity and relate differences in their integration process to differences in experiences and history in their home countries. In recent years a vast quantity of literature has focused on this topic, and, as Zelinsky states, it is “more, it seems, than any single individual could digest or master” (ZELINSKY, W. 2001:ix). “The study of immigration in the social sciences has focused on two central problems: the determinants of migration out of the countries of origin and the adaptation of immigrants once they arrive in host societies” (PORTES, A., ESCOBAR, C. – ARANA, R. 2008:1056). Sassen organized the migration literature around the question of ‘why migration would occur’ (SASSEN, S. 1988:12). He drew attention to a “neglected variable” that needed to be considered" @default.
