CERI is a research centre within the National Political Science Foundation (FNSP). Founded
in 1952, it has been associated with the National Science Research Council (CNRS) since
1967. It has approximately 40 full time research fellows, 15 associate fellows and 10
support staff.
The Centre approaches political analysis of the contemporary world with a strong emphasis
on interdisciplinarity; among its fellows are political scientists, economists,
sociologists and anthropologists. It has a two-fold objective: to contribute to an
in-depth basic understanding of foreign political societies; and to respond to
non-academic requirements for expert analysis on contemporary major international issues.
Fellows at the CERI undertake both individual and team based research projects. Team-based
projects are developed by various research groups on either a thematic or a geographical
basis. Topics of recent seminars and conferences included: European multiculturalism;
migrations; assimilation and citizenship; political change and ethnic conflict in the
Balkans; the former Soviet Union; Turkey; Northern Ireland.

This Laboratory, which has been functioning since 1986, is in part the descendant of the
research group created on the basis of Pluriel (1975-1983) - the journal that tried to
organise into a coherent sector of social science research diverse social and historical
phenomena that had up to that time been studied under different labels: racial relations,
interethnic relations, minority problems, migrations, regional questions, national
questions. Today CERIEM co-ordinates the research of the teaching and research staff of
the university and the researchers and PhD candidates in sociology and anthropology and
hosts maitrise students.
Recent projects include: 'General questions about a sociology of interethnic relations'
(co-ordinated by Pierre-Jean Simon), 'Conceptual instruments for analysis of the processes
of social differentiation and hierarchisation', 'The question of foreigners in France and
Great Britain' (co-ordinated by Ida Simon-Barouh), 'Immigration, refugees, ethnic
populations: the "second generations", cultural contacts and ethnic coexistence,
construction of identity, education and socialisation', 'Ethno-sociology of Bretagne'
(co-ordinated by Pierre-Jean Simon).

The CIEMI centre for documentation was established in Paris in 1973 on the basis of the
archives inherited from L'Eco d'Italia, an Italian language newspaper for immigrants in
France, published in Agen from 1936 to 1973. The centre formed the core of the new
association CIEMM, set up in 1977, which became CIEMI in 1985. The aim of CIEMI is to
highlight, through documentation, publications and training, the role of international
migrations in transforming and rearranging the social, cultural and religious environments
of national societies.
CIEMI regularly publishes 6-7 volumes per year and two periodicals, the bi-monthly
Migrations Société (as of 1989) and the monthly Migrations Europe (1991), put out
jointly with CENE (Migrations News Sheet) in Brussels. The monthly is a publication of the
Réseau d'Informations Européen (RIE) set up by the Centre d'Information et d'Etudes sur
les Migrations Internationales (Paris), the Comité des Eglises auprès des Migrants en
Europe (Brussels), the Commission on Racial Equality (London) and the Flyktingggruppernas

aspects of human rights, a video tape collection, and a toy and game library.
Bibliographies and inventories are available. The aims of the Centre are: to provide
children with an education in which their own rights are respected and through which they
learn to respect the rights of others; to form a team of researchers in the field of human
rights education; to develop and distribute related teaching material.

Established in 1973, the CNDP-Migrants is a specialised service of the CNDP, a public
agency belonging to the Ministry of Education. It is a centre for documentation and
information, which has the objective of informing people in teaching and social fields
working with immigrants and other groups (children, youth, adults) with integration
problems. It operates in three areas: social and cultural integration (immigration
problems in urban peripheries); education (children of immigrants, learning problems and
scholastic difficulties); training (alphabetisation, socio-professional insertion of
youth). To that end, the CNDP has opened to the public its archives containing
documentation, teaching aids for the training of adults and youths with learning
difficulties, and information on and for immigrants.
CNDP publishes two journals: Ville-Ecole-Intégration and V.E.I. actualités.

Research by SOLIIS is guided by a wish to examine migration from a holistic perspective.
Migratory movements are viewed not as abstract phenomena, but as social actions whose
social significance cannot be separated from the actors involved. Consequently, research
has been directed towards study of the ways in which the actors within the migratory
process autonomously construct a rationale for their behaviour, which has little to do
with official discourse and the explanations of experts for the phenomenon. All studies
are part of a theoretical project aimed at setting up a typology of ways of symbolically
producing collective identity. This project is meant to bring together theoretical
proposals related to those fundamental concepts (categorisation, strategies, symbolic
resources) that underlie the reinvigorated study of identity which has taken place in the
last 20 years in the often heterogeneous framework of diverse disciplines (sociology,
social psychology, anthropology).

INED has been carrying out surveys on the immigrant population since 1976. A major survey
(13,000 questionnaires completed), begun in 1992, analysed the living conditions of
immigrants and their children and in particular the problem of their assimilation.
Scholastic performance of children, their behaviour and aspirations, their opportunities
for independence, access to the labour market, and cultural practices are the aspects with
which the study, directed by Michel Tribalat, are especially concerned.
One of the more recent studies, directed by Youssef Courbage and carried out with the
participation of national experts, deals with the problem of interethnic relations in
Europe in selected countries (Hungarian, Gypsy and German minorities in Slovakia, Hungary
and Romania; the Russian minority in Estonia; and the conflict between Catholics and
Protestants in Northern Ireland).
