Summary:

European Immigrations: Trends, Structures and Policy Implications is one of the few attempts to conceive of the 'Old Continent' as a common economic and cultural space of immigration. Europe's post-enlargement states, too, are presented as having a high degree of social and political coherence. New empirical evidence underscores their common experience, while disclosing factors and trends underlying their respective migrations, particularly from Southern and Eastern Europe. Key threads are the long-term transition that countries undergo from net emigration to net immigration, as well as developments in migrant inflows, integration and policy. Book jacket.
