Opis

Exploring migration and citizenship in the context of European Union enlargement, this book weaves together doctrinal law, at the EU and national levels, policy debates, and both quantitative and qualitative data.

Recenzje

'An excellent piece of socio-legal scholarship that highlights the limits and potential of EU citizenship status for A8 migrants. The combination of legal analysis and empirical data convincingly bring to life the experiences of European migrants living and working in the UK.' Peter Dwyer, Nottingham Trent University, UK '...[this] book is an excellent addition to recent studies on migration from the new accession states...[and] has much to say empirically (often poignantly) about the human stories of migrants and their efforts to work and maintain family life...' Translocations: Migration and Social Change '...Samantha Currie makes effective use of a socio-legal approach, drawing upon a mixture of legal material and interviews with Polish migrants and employment agencies. The work as a whole shows the limits to the status and experience of EU8 migrants in the United Kingdom.' Journal of Immigration Asylum and Nationality Law 'Migration, Work and Citizenship raises some important theoretical issues that deserve exploration and analysis. The author lays out the legal relationship between mobility and citizenship, and this is an important first step.' Journal of International Migration and Integration
