Albanian Mobilities to and from Italy and Greece
The book introduces a novel analytical framework that redefines return, remigration, and circular mobility as interconnected phases within a broader migration process. It emphasizes the complexities of migration patterns and offers insights into how these movements interact and influence one another, providing a fresh perspective for understanding migration dynamics.
Focusing on the socio-economic integration of first-generation immigrants in Greece, this book examines the impact of rising xenophobia and hate speech amidst economic crises. It explores bottom-up integration strategies across various domains, including employment, housing, and social participation. By employing quantitative methods, the author analyzes the experiences of different ethno-cultural immigrant groups, shedding light on the complexities of integration and the challenges posed by societal tensions.
This book provides an important new analytical framework for making sense of return, remigration and circular mobility, conceptualising them as different phases of a wider migration process.
