“…The TIES survey, for example, allows comparing the outcomes of secondgeneration individuals from specific origins within the selected cities (and, to some extent, between). This has been done in a comparative as well as a national manner (see Crul and Heering 2008;Fibbi et al 2014 andGroenewold et al 2013). By including more than one national or ethnic group as their target groups, all the surveys outlined in the Table 2.3 have the potential for within group comparisons.…”

“…For example, among the Turks, Moroccans and former Yugoslavs in 15 European cities, 63.5% have no intention of ever taking up long-term residence in their parents' country of birth (Bachmeier et al 2013, 279). Among the Turks and former Yugoslavs in Switzerland a majority excludes even spending one year in their family's country of origin (Fibbi et al 2015). Engler et al (2015) also suggest that only 25% of all emigrants with German citizenship and a migratory background return to their family's country of origin.…”

Existing studies on emigration either focus on the first generation or the total migrant population. Analysing the Swiss context, this article explores the emigration patterns and determinants of children of immigrants in comparison with other subpopulations. We use original longitudinal data (obtained by linking the Structural Survey and the Population and Household Statistics) that provide information on emigration flows as well as on the migratory background. Results differ significantly according to the migratory status considered.Keywords: Children of immigrants, emigration, Switzerland, longitudinal data, migratory status Emigrationsmuster und -faktoren der Immigrantenkinder in der SchweizDer Fokus bestehender Emigrationsstudien ist entweder auf die erste Generation oder die Gesamtmigrationsbevölkerung gerichtet. Dieser Artikel untersucht die Emigrationsmuster und -faktoren der Immigrantenkinder im Vergleich mit anderen Bevölkerungsgruppen im Schweizer Kontext. Dafür kommen neue Längsschnittdaten zur Anwendung (die Strukturerhebung und die Statistik der Bevölkerung und der Haushalte), welche die Auswanderungen beinhalten und Aufschluss über den Migrationsstatus geben. Die Studienergebnisse variieren deutlich zwischen den einzelnen Migrationsstatus.Schlüsselwörter: Immigrantenkinder, Auswanderung, Schweiz, Längsschnittdaten, Migrationsstatus Tendances et facteurs d'émigration des enfants d'immigrants en SuisseLes études existantes sur l'émigration mettent soit l'accent sur la première génération soit sur l'ensemble de la population migrante. Cet article explore les facteurs d'émigration des enfants d'immigrants en comparaison avec d'autres sous-populations dans le contexte suisse. Nous utilisons des données longitudinales (obtenues en appariant le relevé structurel et la statistique de la population et des ménages) qui décrivent les émigrations ainsi que la trajectoire migratoire. Les résultats diffèrent considérablement selon le statut migratoire considéré.

“…For my analyses concerning religious endogamy-exogamy, I defined religious belonging as the individual's personal present religious affiliation, which may not always correspond to his or her religious upbringing (Fibbi et al 2015). According to this definition, 42 per cent of the youth of Turkish origin, some of whom were raised as Muslims, declare no religious affiliation.…”

“…First, the two origin groups under study share a comparable migration history in the country, as both groups arrived at the end of the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s, either as labour migrants, asylum seekers or in the context of family reunification. These immigrant groups also have similar positions in Swiss society, in terms of their fairly recent immigration, their labor market situation, and their negative image in Switzerland (Fibbi et al 2015). Second, more importantly, the interest of such a comparison lies with the peculiar articulation of religion and ethnicity 6 in the groups under study: in the Turkish immigrant group, religion and ethnicity / origin virtually coincide with each other, whereas three different religious affiliations can be found in the former Yugoslav group; thus, religion only partially coincides with ethnicity.…”

Partner Choices of the Second Generation of Turkish and Former Yugoslav Origin in Switzerland: A Comparative Analysis

Abstracts Partner Choices of the Second Generation of Turkish and Former Yugoslav Origin in Switzerland: A Comparative AnalysisThis paper explores the partner choices (exogamy, local endogamy, and transnational endogamy) of the children of Turkish and former Yugoslav immigrants, who share a comparable migration history in Switzerland, based on the Swiss TIES (The Integration of the European Second Generation) survey. The comparison of these groups puts Turkish youths' partner choice (low exogamy and relatively high transnational endogamy) into a wider perspective. Moreover, the comparison allows to disentangle ethnic and religious affiliations in order to test hypotheses on the role of ethnicity and religion in partner choices. While ethnic endogamy prevails in the two groups under study, religious boundaries are not stronger than ethnic ones. The second generations' desire for religious and educational homogamy appears to be a reason for transnational endogamy.
