“…It is likely that this pattern remains valid across countries and immigration groups (Orderud 2001). In Norway only 15% of immigrants from Thailand are men while the share of men among immigrants from Greece is 77%.…”

“…A positive relationship between duration of residence and self-employment is expected because it takes time to learn the new language and to get access to useful social networks (Orderud 2001). Based on data from Statistics Norway concerning the number of first generation immigrants in Norway each year, the average duration of residence for each immigrant group was calculated as follows: A higher rate of self-employment among some groups of immigrants can be attributed to their mediating middlemen position in the host society.…”

“…Mens innenlands flytting har lengre tradisjon som forskningsfelt (se for eksempel Brox, 1980;Bøe, 1991;Foss et al, 1974;Orderud & Onsager, 1998), ble de internasjonale migrantene viet liten interesse i de norske samfunnsvitenskapelige forskningsmiljøene fram til 1980-tallet. I dag er internasjonal migrasjon derimot et hovedtema i norsk samfunnsforskning (Midtbøen, 2017), og forskere som studerer ulike aspekter ved internasjonal migrasjon finnes ved de fleste universiteter, høyskoler og forskningsinstitutter.…”

The chapter is a study of how long-standing residents perceive impacts of mobility and tourism in their local, rural community. Based on qualitative interviews over two periods, the author reveals how local inhabitants rely on historical traditions to explain an embodied familiarity with today’s tourism and mobility. There are, however, objections to the present situation and ambivalence among the interviewees, referring to what has become an abundance of visitors and newcomers in transit, or to pressure on agricultural areas. Additionally, over the years national discourses on sustainable development and protection of the natural environment have influenced local contractors’ inclination toward unlimited growth. Still, local inhabitants maintained a co-creative story of being in tourism through generations, and this seemed to be their basic thesis when navigating their ambivalence to local development.

This chapter uses administrative register data to look at who is working in the Norwegian cleaning industry. The chapter presents an overview of the industry in Norway’s three largest cities and differences in the industry’s workforces in each city. As the cleaning industry is characterized by a large proportion of migrant employees, country of origin and reason for immigration are included. The main findings are that cleaning work still is feminized and ethnic work (despite earlier research that emphasized how men are taking over), although this varies between the cities. The chapter determines that Oslo is a special case when it comes to labor market dynamics in Norway and not necessarily a front-runner. With this as a backdrop, the chapter discusses the cleaning industry workforce’s relation to Norwegian working life, precarious work, and its consequences.
