    Abstract: The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has remained the second largest source for residence approvals in New Zealand since 1997. This large immigration flow also generated significant counterflow toward the homeland. Using data from Statistic New Zealand, this research analyzes the permanent and long-term (PLT) departure and arrival data of New Zealand for five migrant groups from the Asia-Pacific region (Korean, Indian, Chinese from the PRC, Chinese from Taiwan, and Pacific Islanders from Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa) in order to show some distinct features of return migration of the PRC migrants in terms of volume, age, and sex. It is suggested here that both the immigration and the return migration patterns of the PRC migrants are reflective not only of China’s recent economic strength but also of New Zealand’s positioning in the global migration system. The study of PRC return migration in the New Zealand context contributes to an understanding of the changing power relations between immigrant-sending and immigrant-receiving countries.

    Family Structure and Child Health: Does the Sex Composition of Parents Matter?

    Abstract: The children of different-sex married couples appear to be advantaged on a range of outcomes relative to the children of different-sex cohabiting couples. Despite the legalization of same-sex marriage in the United States, whether and how this general pattern extends to the children of same-sex married and cohabiting couples is unknown. This study examines this question with nationally representative data from the 2004–2013 pooled National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). Results reveal that children in cohabiting households have poorer health outcomes than children in married households regardless of the sex composition of their parents. Children in same-sex and different-sex married households are relatively similar to each other on health outcomes, as are children in same-sex and different-sex cohabiting households. These patterns are not fully explained by socioeconomic differences among the four different types of families. This evidence can inform general debates about family structure and child health as well as policy interventions aiming to reduce child health disparities.

    Abstract: As a follow-up to our 2016 study, this article presents new findings examining the relationship between same-sex family structure and child health using the 2008–2015 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). After discussing NIHS data problems, we examine the relationship between family structure and a broad range of child well-being outcomes, including school days lost, behavior, parent-rated health, emotional difficulties, and activity limitations. We find both similarities (school days lost, behavior, parent-rated health) and differences (emotional difficulties and activity limitations) across our two studies using different survey years, but our overall conclusions are robust. We further discuss the implications of our findings for future research on this topic, including how to account for biological relatedness in a study on child health in same-sex families.

    Abstract: Il est urgent de comprendre les expériences vécues du changement climatique dans le contexte de villes africaines, où même de faibles chocs climatiques peuvent avoir d'importantes implications pour l'économie locale, et celle des pauvres urbains en particulier. Cet article examine des récits de changement climatique et de changement de moyens de subsistance dans la municipalité de Jinja (Ouganda), en soulignant comment les résidents de Jinja donnent un sens au changement climatique à travers leurs propres cadres narratifs plutôt qu’à travers le prisme du discours global sur le changement climatique. Les auteurs démontrent comment l'apparition du changement climatique à Jinja est largement attribuée à ce qui est perçu comme des défaillances morales et environnementales de la part d'une génération actuelle considérée plus destructive que la génération précédente et incapable de préserver les terres, les arbres et autres ressources pour les générations futures. Un examen des ontologies locales du changement climatique révèle comment les multiples vulnérabilités croisées de la vie urbaine contemporaine à Jinja servent à obscurcir non seulement les conditions de possibilité d'un futur immédiat, mais également les horizons à plus long terme de générations futures, étant donné que les régimes météorologiques changeants exacerbent les difficultés que rencontrent actuellement les populations à s'adapter aux changements socioéconomiques plus larges et à la vulnérabilité croissante des moyens de subsistance. Cette forme d'analyse situe l’évolution du climat et de l'environnement dans le contexte des difficultés urbaines quotidiennes et souligne le besoin, pour les citoyens, de participer à l’élaboration de stratégies de changement climatique qui évitent les écueils du réductionnisme climatique. L'article s'appuie sur plus de 150 entretiens qualitatifs, des groupes de dialogue générationnel et des méthodes créatives basées sur du théâtre communautaire de recherche.
