Abstract

In the sphere of production the Parisian garment industry has traditionally been an immigrant industry. It is suggested in the paper that this has been due to a continuous match between the structure of the industry on one hand, and the economic expectations and characteristics of immigrants, on the other. The immigrants have perpetuated the outdated structures of that industry but have also contributed to its dynamism.
