This volume of the latest research in European migration embraces a continent-wide outlook on migration processes and accounts particularly from Southern and Eastern European perspectives. This is accomplished by analyzing the long-term transition that countries undergo from net emigration to net immigration, as well as developments in their migrant inflows, integration, and policy. The mix of authors-representing several academic centers across Europe yet pursuing a common vision of European migration past, present, and future-utilize new empirical evidence, specially designed and collected.
