ABSTRACT Based on census records (both of total population and commercial-industrial), and an extensive review and synthesis of the secondary literature, this article analyses the importance and impact of immigration on the economic development of Chile, in particular on entrepreneurship and the changing composition of the main business groups of the country. We provide a sketch of the main entrepreneurs among the immigrant groups, according to countries of origin and sectors in which they operated, who emerged as influential modern entrepreneurs in the country during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. We also show how some of these foreign entrepreneurs (and their descendants) contributed to the renewal of the economic elites of Chile during these two centuries, by focussing on some case studies of the leading members of the most successful family business groups.

Abstract ‘Undesirables’ explores the various border control practices employed against migrant communities that have been branded as undesirable by the authorities, including exclusion, deportation, monitoring and detention. The contemporary approaches to undesirable migrant groups have deep historical connections. This special issue offers evidence that current policy and practices are products of a long-term historical recourse. This proposed issue explores how certain migrant groups (on the grounds of race, gender, ethnicity, political ideology, and perceived criminality) were identified as ‘undesirable’ by the authorities of the state and subjected to various border and policing practices. This often involved the exclusion of ‘undesirable’ migrants at the border or the deportation of individuals if found to be ‘undesirable’, but also included the surveillance, arrest and detention of undesirables from migrant groups by police and intelligence agencies once they had settled in the destination country.This special issue shows that border control practices extended far beyond the physical border and that as well as using border practices to reject or expel ‘undesirable’ migrants, the state highly monitored those ‘undesirable’ migrants who had been allowed to enter the country. This builds on Paddy Hillyard’s (1993) theory of the ‘suspect community’, which described the heavy policing of the Irish community in Britain during the 1970s-80s. While some studies have looked at how some community groups have replaced others in the contemporary government’s security agenda (Pantazis and Pemberton 2009), this special issue showcases that the ‘undesirability’ concept has historical origin that still influences current approaches to policies, hence it warrants a more comprehensive investigation and reflection.

ABSTRACT This article explores why and how the British and Australian authorities monitored their British Cypriot communities and how this impacted upon their respective immigration policies in connection with British Cypriots. Both the British and Australian authorities monitored sections of the British Cypriot community for similar reasons, especially political, using similar techniques, yet adopted different immigration policies on more Cypriots arriving. While the historiography for this period claims that the British were moving towards restricting immigration from their Empire and Australia was opening its borders, the opposite is in fact the case for the British Cypriots. The British did not alter their policies or procedures very much on the immigration of Cypriots from the 1930s, and even opened their border to Cypriot informers during the EOKA period. On the other hand, the Australian authorities progressively placed restrictions on Cypriots until they suspended immigration in 1956.
