The Impact of the Integration of Urban and Rural Medical Insurance on Migrant Workers' Overwork: Evidence From China.

In recent years, the problem of migrant workers' excessive labor has attracted much attention. The implementation of the integration policy of urban and rural medical insurance has broken the urban-rural dual division system. While improving migrant workers' health and sense of social integration, can they effectively alleviate their overwork? Based on the panel data of China Labor Dynamics Survey (CLDS) in 2016 and 2018, this paper empirically analyzes the impact of the integration of urban and rural medical insurance on migrant workers' overwork by using the differential difference model (DID). The research shows that the integration of urban and rural medical insurance can significantly alleviate the excessive labor of migrant workers; Heterogeneity analysis shows that, comparing with the new generation, the eastern region, the tertiary industry and low education level migrant workers, it is more obviously that the integration of urban and rural medical insurance alleviates the overwork of the older generation, the central and the western regions, the secondary industry and high education level migrant workers. Path analysis shows that the integration of urban and rural medical insurance will improve the social identity and health level of migrant workers, and then reduce the probability of migrant workers' overwork.

THE ROLE OF INDONESIAN GOVERNMENT DIPLOMACY AND INTERNATIONAL LAW IN BUSINESS PROVIDING PROTECTION FOR INDONESIAN MIGRANT WORKERS

This happens because of the impact of globalization and is also one of Indonesia's ways to reduce unemployment in the country. It is undeniable that from this, there will be problems and obstacles that approach. The problem of migrant workers who are abroad is currently a special concern of the Indonesian government as a guarantee that the state's goal to protect the entire nation is carried out. By using descriptive research methods obtained from various sources listed, the authors get the data that will be presented in this paper. This writing also uses a normative juridical approach.

Mediation: from theoretical aspects to the practical implementation of migrants labor rights

In the article, the authors explores the concept of mediation as a way to resolve labor disputes during the practical implementation of labor rights of migrants. The urgency of the research topic is due to the increase in the number of labor migrants from Ukrainian citizens abroad, as well as the gradual increase in the quality of labor in Ukraine from abroad. Migration processes are related to the realization by citizens not only of the right to work, but also of the right to social protection, living standards, and other inalienable rights. The authors emphasize that the problems of migrant workers are studied only in quantitative terms, and their practical solution through the improvement of the mechanism of mediation support in resolving labor disputes remains unnoticed by scholars and requires special attention. Under the concept of mediation, the authors understand the pre-trial method of resolving disputes, but focuses on the fact that the Law of Ukraine "On Mediation" does not contain a mechanism for protecting migrant workers and needs to be finalized in this area. The migration process involves the transfer of human labor not only from Ukraine but also in Ukraine (from among foreign nationals). The number of migrant workers is growing every year, and the number of cases of violation of migrants' labor rights, which require a mediator and mediation procedures involvement, is automatically increasing. There are two parties to individual labor disputes: the worker and the employer. Disputes in court can be resolved through administrative or civil proceedings. According to the authors, the essence of the dispute may be resumption of work, registration of employment, compensation for material damage, dismissal, formulation of reasons for dismissal, disciplinary action, payment for downtime, forced absences, and more. The appeal to the court to resolve the dispute on the part of the employee is associated either with awareness of legal norms that directly indicate a violation of labor rights, or with the acquisition of legal assistance (information from counsel, lawyer), or illustrative examples of such disputes. The employer's appeal to the court is motivated by awareness of the law, which he is directly guided by in its activities, as well as the presence of the legal service. The authors also give examples of the impossibility of resolving a labor dispute through the mediation procedure, to the special nature of the labor dispute. Signs of unmediability are the lack of a direct ban on mediation; the nature of the dispute or a direct indication of its resolution through mediation; the possibility of procedural registration of the mediation procedure; the subject and content of the dispute do not contradict morality and public order. The authors cite an accident at work and negligent attitude to work as an example of such a sign. In other cases, mediation is permissible. Specific issues of prohibition of mediation in labor law should be reflected in current legislation.

A Decade of Studying Guest Workers Through the Projects of the Serbian Ethnological and Anthropological Society

This review paper provides an overview of the ten-year long anthropological research on the cultural identity of guest workers and their descendants as part of the projects implemented by the associates of the Department of Ethnology and Anthropology of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Belgrade and the SASA Institute of Ethnography. The projects were supported by the Serbian Ethnological and Anthropological Society and the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade. The phenomenon of “temporary workers abroad”, or the so-called guest workers (Gastarbeiter), which emerged in the early 1960s and continued in the decades to come, has long remained beyond the interest of Serbian anthropological and ethnological science. This is why, after having noticed a scientific research gap related to this phenomenon, in 2010 we initiated the anthropological research of the cultural identity of guest workers. Our intention was to take into account different factors of guest-worker identity construction and to look at the processes, discourses and concepts related to this socio-cultural group from different angles. Over time, as we delved deeper into the problem of migrant workers and migration in general, our interests, and consequently our research, expanded to other topics in addition to cultural identity. In that context, this review paper intends to inform the scientific and professional public about the findings of research on migrants working temporarily abroad and their descendants, and to highlight some of the most important topics that we focused on in this research, while being aware that the phenomenon of migrants and migration is so diverse that it is impossible to include or investigate all its elements that make it so complex.

Spatio-Temporal Heterogeneity of Urban Expansion and Population Growth in China.

Urbanization has become one of the hot issues of global sustainable development, and is mainly characterized by urban population growth and construction land expansion. However, the inharmonious development of urban expansion and population migration has brought serious challenges to urban planning and management. China is the largest developing country in the world, and the urbanization process has accelerated over the past decades. In this paper, decoupling analysis was used to demonstrate the spatio–temporal relationship between urban expansion and population growth in 321 prefecture–level cities in China, providing a reference basis for sustainable development. The results showed that China’s population, total GDP, and construction land area increased from 1990 to 2018. The rate of construction land expansion was larger in the eastern coastal and western regions than in the northeastern and central regions, but the population growth rate was not significantly different among these regions. According to the decoupling analysis, the relationships of population–GDP, construction land–GDP, and population–construction land were mainly weak decoupling, indicating that both the population growth and the construction land expansion lagged behind the economic development, and the population growth lagged behind construction land expansion. In addition, the results were analyzed based on China’s four economic regions. Population and construction land area changes in the northeastern provinces experienced a shift from weak decoupling to expansive negative decoupling, then presented a strong decoupling. The decoupling state of population–construction land in the west region was relatively stable. The relationship between population and construction land in the central regions was mainly weak decoupling, and some cities developed into strong decoupling. The relationship between population and construction land in the east region experienced a shift from strong decoupling to weak decoupling, then demonstrated expansive negative decoupling, mainly manifested in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and Pearl River Delta urban agglomerations. Therefore, the northeast region should take measures to promote regional population growth while reasonably controlling the expansion of construction land, the west region should focus on ecological protection and moderately attract population, the central region should control their population development and reasonably allocate land, and the east region should pay attention to and solve the citizenship problem of migrant workers in second–tier and third–tier cities when promoting new urbanization.

Artificial Intelligence based Fuzzy Importance Performance Analysis Model (AFIPA)With the transformation of economic system, migrant workers transfer employment from underdeveloped areas to economically developed areas, and children’s reading has become one of the important things for migrant workers and families. With the increase of children in the immigration area year by year, the pressure on education in the immigration area has gradually increased, which has become one of the social problems to be solved by the government in the immigration area. The speed of school construction cannot keep up with the growth of children, and because it takes up a lot of resources, funds and manpower, the government is not very enthusiasticin the immigration area. The stakeholders involved are always playing a game. How to achieve the best state is a difficult problem. After the central government’s policywereissuedabout solving the enrollment problem of migrant workers’children in school, local acceptance criteria for admitting migrant children to school were formulated. However, when lowering the admission threshold, all localities always look to other areas for fear of falling too low to become a basin of confluence, which cause an unbearable burden. In this paper fuzzy based analytic theory has been analysed Through the game analysis of various stakeholders, and taking Shengze Town, Jiangsu Province as an example, this paper puts forward some fuzzy policy suggestions, hoping to provide some new experience in promoting migrant children’s education in the future.

Background and purposeWhen migrants go to a new country to work, they experience transition of epidemiological risk factors, a new system of access to healthcare and changing life styles. Their comprehension of health risk factors will depend on acculturation pattern. Moreover, musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are significantly prevalent in such a population due to the manual work in their jobs. Myanmar immigrant’s acculturation level has not yet been studied in relation to prevalent diseases. This study aimed to investigate health risk behaviors, the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, and associated factors.MethodsA cross-sectional study surveyed 414 Myanmar migrant workers in Chiangmai, Thailand. Face-to-face interviews administered structured questionnaires which comprised the transculturally validated East Asian Acculturation Measure scale, Standardized Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaires, Patient Health Questionnaires 2 and 9 for depression and questionnaires to screen health behaviors and jobs. Data analysis applied binary logistic regression.ResultsAbout 26.3% were current smokers and 40.8% current drinkers. Of the 75.8% of participants did not exercise, 40.1% were overweight and obese, 44.7% had prehypertension, 27.1% hypertension, and 13% had depression. The prevalence of MSDs at any site over the previous 12 months was 53.4% and it was significantly associated (P-value≤0.05) with female (adjusted odd ratio (aOR)=1.75; 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.04–2.94), depression (aOR=2.19;CI=1.10–4.39), marginalization pattern of acculturation (aOR=1.87;CI=1.09–3.21) and MSDs at any site last week (aOR=8.41;CI=4.09–17.30).ConclusionHealth behaviors in this young, working migrant population are risky, and MSDs are common problems for migrant workers in northern Thailand.
