Opis

Immigration has been predominantly analyzed from its facet of poorly paid manual labor. Yet, there are other flows of emigrants who establish themselves in other countries, temporarily or permanently, in more favorable economic conditions. Migration of Rich Immigrants addresses these kinds of migratory paths with an emphasis on analyses that reflect how gender, class, age, sexual orientation, and ethnicity influence these processes.

Recenzje

"This edited volume has nine chapters with a conclusion and has been broadly divided into three parts: places, mobilities, and paths. ... this edited volume is a laudable attempt to draw attention to diversity and heterogeneity in migration. It's an essential read for anyone who is curious about migration irrespective of academic discipline and professional background." (Geraldine Asiwome Adiku, Border Criminologies, law.ox.ac.uk, October, 2016)
