+abstract: 'The research presented in this paper emerges from the Immigrant Work
+
+  Strategies and Networks Project. The project focused on the experiences
+
+  of Ghanaian, Portuguese, Romanian, Turkish and British-born respondents
+
+  (both male and female) in London, between 2004 and 2006, using
+
+  questionnaires and in-depth interviews. In this article, our goal is to
+
+  explore the role of imperfect information in the immigrant settlement
+
+  process and destination society policies. More specifically, we examine
+
+  the nature of information used in two interlinked processes: 1)
+
+  information used by the destination society to debate, design, and
+
+  implement policy; 2) information used by immigrants to develop work
+
+  strategies. We aim to demonstrate that a great deal of information
+
+  immigrants and the destination society utilise, in making their
+
+  decisions, is often based on the generation, circulation and
+
+  reproduction of myths. Although migration myths of destination society
+
+  members and immigrants are often conflicting, they seem to be reproduced
+
+  within a shared regime of myth-making. In an attempt to analyse the
+
+  dynamics and inter-linkages of the myth-making regime, we offer two new
+
+  concepts, i.e. ``hegemonic myths{''''} and ``opportunity myths{''''}. Our
+
+  discussion on the construction and circulation of myths presents new
+
+  opportunities to reinterpret the immigrant settlement process. We
+
+  conclude that while hegemonic myths about migrants in the public arena
+
+  are rarely affirmative, opportunity myths constructed by immigrants are
+
+  far more complex. They can both reproduce inequalities or provide a
+
+  basis for immigrant empowerment. Hegemonic myths, for example, have the
+
+  potential to focus the debate on specific groups, or immigrants in
+
+  general, where they can become either heroes or, more likely, villains.
+
+  We argue that opportunity myths do play a major role in the perpetuation
+
+  of migration to the UK. The inequalities and exploitation experienced by
+
+  immigrants are essential in the circulation of opportunity myths as
+
+  immigrants attempt to maintain impressions of the good life in the UK.
+
+  Ironically, immigration myths, the erosion of social rights and ongoing
+
+  discrimination contribute to the continual flow of incoming migrants. In
+
+  other words, the more rights are eroded and the more difficult it
+
+  becomes for immigrants to succeed, the more immigrants feel compelled to
+
+  construct narratives of success. Unless migration policies deal with the
+
+  right to work, social rights of immigrants and with the elimination of
+
+  discrimination and racism, policy and public discourse are likely to
+
+  lead to unintended results.'
