pourquoi ceux qui viennent de pays dit pauvres les considère-t-on comme immigrés et ceux qui partent vivre dans le tiers monde on les appelle des expatriés?

Immigrer ça veut dire entrer dans le pays hôte
Emigrer ça veut dire quitter son pays
Mais ces deux termes auront toujours une consonnance péjorative, alors qu'expatriés ça fait plutôt "cadre, 4x4, villa sur terrain cloturé et gardé, non?

Par contre ceux qui se sont installé en Afrique depuis 20 ans et qui ont monté leur propre boites, sont consirérés comme des expats alors qu'un African qui monte sa boite en France reste et restera un immigré, qu'en penses tu?

Tout à fait d'accord! Je n'y avais jamais pensé mais je trouve ça tout à fait vrai!

En fait un expatrié est plutôt quelqu'un qui travaille pour une entreprise de son pays d'origine, dans un autre pays, et qui y est envoyé pour ce job.

Mais je suis d'accord, on dit ça des gens qui viennent de pays riches!
