Patterns of migration in Central Europe

"This book brings together new material on immigration in the Central European region Poland, and Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. It is designed as a key text for those studying this region and those interested in migration generally. This book describes the patterns of migration, the policies and politics associated with migration and likely future trends in each country. Some chapters give the point of view of people from inside the countries and others provide the point of view of policymakers from outside. The authors argue also that the new patterns of migration that we find in Central Europe pose challenges to conventional theories of migration as they endeavour to define analytically what is new about this migration space."--BOOK JACKET.
