L'immigration chilienne en Lorraine (1973-2004).

This article is about the presence of Chilean refugees in Lorraine from the time of their departure to the present. The study hinges on two phases of their stay, i.e. before and after Pinochet's dictatorship. The paper addresses the issues of these people's trajectories, their sociological profiles before and after their arrival in France, the conditions of their arrival, their migratory journeys and their intergenerational social mobility. It aims at examining the individual and collective positioning of these refugees, as well as the identity processes at work in relation to both French and Chilian societies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
