However, repatriation is one aspect of international assignments that has been somehow overlooked. Most literature on international human resource management (IHRM) for the most part focuses on expatriate settlement in the host country of assignment. Not as much of the required concentration has been focused on preparing expatriates for homecoming, notwithstanding the facts regarding the complexity of settling back at home and reports that nearly all expatriates are unhappy with the repatriation process
Repatriation: Africa in the Horizon The idea of the repatriation of Blacks to Africa is a theme that runs deeply within Rastafarian beliefs. Although the concept of Ethiopia being the true and glorious home of all Blacks is imbedded in Rastafarian beliefs, the idea dates much farther back in history. Dating back to the African slave trade beginning in the eighteenth century, Ethiopianism has influenced the Black race dramatically. People such as Marcus Garvey have raised the world’s awareness
be reburied and should be studied and documented for the sake of history and a better understanding of it. After many years of looting of Native American burial sites, the Federal Government established The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) in 1990 and is the primary federal legislation pertaining to graves and human remains in archaeological contexts. It was created to protect cemeteries on federal and tribal lands, and to provide a way to return the human skeletal material
In the heated battle of who can control the past critical information and an abundance of education is being lost from the study of ancestral remains. The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990 (NAGPRA) is plummeting our modern society into the past. Archeologists now not only have to deal with the difficult task of piecing together the remains of past generations, but to now take on the daunting task of upholding science in the courthouse. How can a society point a finger
status of the Blacks. The Jews and Blacks were both subjected to slavery because they were a little bit different. It was also said the first Israelites were black, being the first Jews. Another strong bond between these two groups is the belief of repatriation, which is to return to the country of origin or allegiance, being it Ethiopia (Africa) for the Rastas and Israel for the Jews. Rastafarianism also has and uses a lot of the same beliefs of the Jews. As you can see Judaism and Rastafarianism has
pre-departure and on-assignment component of the expatriation, and little attention was given to the repatriation process (Osman-Gani and Hyder 2008). Repatriation is the process of bringing an expatriate back to his or her home country after the end of the international assignment (Dowling, Festing and Engle 2013). Therefore this essay will discuss the various issues which may arise during the process of repatriation and provide relevant solutions.

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) protect the Native American’s rights over their human remains and cultural items. Proposed by the Morris Udall, former Congress Member for Arizona second District, NAGPRA was passed by the Congress in November 1990. The congress’ intention was to facilitate the repatriation of the Native Americans skeleton and cultural remains that were held in museums and federal agencies
Anglo-Saxon, civilization . . . Henry James was a patriot to his race, and his final transfer of citizenship, though immediately called forth by his sense of America’s procrastination in the World War, was but the outward sign of a temperamental repatriation already complete.1 In fact, the outbreak of World War I was a shock for James and in July 1915 he became a British citizen in protest against the U.S.’ refusal to enter the war. He was sensitive on n... ... middle of paper ... ...elham.
The Repatriation The Holocaust during the years of 1993-1945, was a time of despair since it involved persecution and murder. It took many years to defeat the Nazis and rescue the few Jews that were left. After World War II, the Jews were able to to go back home. Though, their return wasn't very welcoming. Close your eyes and imagine coming back to your home and see others living in there or is no longer there. This is what the survivors of the Holocaust came to after the inhuman conditions and
Phase 4 of Repatriation: Readjustment During the readjustment phase, those who returned home from a long stint abroad often face a reverse culture shock. Similar to culture shock experienced upon arrival in the foreign country the expatriate resided in, repatriates often find themselves feeling frustrated, bored, and restless. The repatriates may feel isolated and depressed, and may realize changes to their goals and attitudes when compared to how they felt before they went abroad (USAC n.d.). Companies
