Skilled Migration and the Knowledge Society: a Case of New Chinese Immigrants in New Zealand

In the past decades, attraction of skilled migrants is one of the main strategies for governments of some traditional immigrant countries in response to the development of the knowledge society and economy. However, unsatisfactory results of socioeconomic integration of newly arrival skilled migrants always lead to public and academic debates on their role in hosting societies. This work uses multiple research strategies, combining analyses of historical and statistical materials, as well as a case study with new Chinese immigrants in New Zealand, to examine their contributions to the hosting country. It shows the role of knowledge in the emergence of the knowledge society and economy in New Zealand, the value placed on knowledge and skills in New Zealand immigration policies and the change in the Chinese community with the growing demand for skilled migrants. This book is useful for scholars in sociology, economics and education, immigration policy makers and advisors, and providers of immigration and settlement services.
