- W388637004 abstract "Immigration policy makers tend to have preexisting notions about categories such as “international students,” and “skilled” or “unskilled” migrants. They often design and implement immigration policies according to the observable labor shortage at any given time. There are two caveats in this approach. First, these commonsense categories adopted in immigration policy making are in reality highly ambiguous concepts. Such ambiguity leads to unintended policy consequences. Second, migration trends evolve in an interaction between individual migrant characteristics and socio-institutional contexts. It is impossible for national policies to dictate the outcomes of migration. Increasingly globalized and market-driven economic processes render it futile or even counterproductive for national governments to control who they want and who they do not want. This paper uses the migration outcomes of Chinese migrants in Japan to substantiate these arguments. First, it shows the diversity of international students as a category of migrants as well as the blurred boundary between skilled and unskilled labor. It describes the context-specific nature of “skills” and the development of real skills from “unskilled” labor. Second, the economic and social practices of Chinese migrants in Japan, through their niche occupations in Japanese firms’ transnational business, their entrepreneurship, and their cross-border living arrangements all indicate that immigrants, skilled or not, contribute to Japanese economy and Japanese socio-cultural life in ways that are not foreseen or prescribed in immigration policies." @default.
