But there was more than a trickle of Finns moving to other countries<\/div>\n<div>as well; most of these went to West Germany, Great Britain and to the somewhat<\/div>\n<div>unlikely destination Switzerland. The emigration gained momentum in the 1960s<\/div>\n<div>and declined in the 1980s. Although these two migration streams coincided, their<\/div>\n<div>composition differed substantially. Sweden attracted largely unskilled labour from rural areas of Finland, while the rest of Europe attracted especially educated emigrants from Finnish urban areas, the majority being women. Although many of<\/div>\n<div>the emigrants returned to Finland, the majority of the expatriate Finns in Sweden<\/div>\n<div>and Switzerland migrated during the later part of the 20th century. This study describes how the background and socio-demographic characteristics of the Finnish emigrants living in Sweden and Switzerland relate to their present life situation and ethnic identi\u03b2ication in the context of the different spatial and cultural settings. For this purpose statistical data on Finns in both countries and data from two separate surveys are analysed and completed with interviews.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author(s) : Krister Bj\u00f6rklund Source : https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/academia.edu.documents\/38315371\/finns_abroad_c21.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIWOWYYGZ2Y53UL3A&amp;Expires=1518041466&amp;Signature=H6IhHKDcOHL8YnZQXDF2Z9lF5ng%3D&amp;response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3DEncountering_difference_Nordic_privilege.pdf#page=31 Abstract: Towards the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[256,32,505,137,9,506,87,154,19,138,110,181,244],"class_list":["post-1912","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-migration-phenomenon","tag-256","tag-book-chapter","tag-destination-decision","tag-emigration","tag-english-language","tag-finns","tag-history","tag-interviews","tag-labour-market","tag-migration-motives","tag-mobility","tag-survey","tag-sweden"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1912","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1912"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1912\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1912"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1912"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swissmig.unine.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
