Abstract

The paper describes the evolution of migration policy in Australia from the 1950s onwards. It focuses in particular on the period after 1995 when the Australian Government concentrated its migration program on skilled immigrants, both permanent and temporary. While conceived as separate programs, over time, the permanent and temporary movements have been merged so that most new permanent skilled immigrants make an application on shore while holding a temporary resident visa. This approach seems to have served Australia well in a time of strong labour demand and a dwindling domestic supply of labour. Australia’s international program will be important in the future as it slows the pace of population ageing and provides necessary skills to an otherwise static labour force.

澳大利亚的国际移民和就业

这篇论文描述了20世纪50年代以来澳大利亚移民政策的演变。它特别着重于1995年以后的时期，当时澳大利亚政府将其移民方案集中于永久和临时技术移民。虽然最初的构想是分开的，但随着时间的推移，永久移民和临时移民已经合并，因此大多数新的永久技术移民在持有临时居留签证的情况下在岸上提出申请。在劳动力需求强劲和国内劳动力供应减少的情况下，这种做法似乎对澳大利亚很有帮助。澳大利亚的国际项目将在未来发挥重要作用，因为它减缓了人口老龄化的步伐，并为原本静态的劳动力提供了必要的技能。
