The Politics of Return: International Return Migration in Europe

This volume contains thirty-seven papers on return migration in Europe. It focuses mainly on the local and national effect of measures taken by receiving countries to restrict immigration and to encourage voluntary repatriation. Part I covers return migration to Algeria, Tunisia, Spain, Portugal and Greece, and also describes the effects on the local communities. Part II examines return migration from the point of view of host countries, notably France, Germany FR, Sweden and Finland. Part III is concerned with perspectives on return migration, examining historical cases (for example USA to Poland, and Australia to Holland), and theoretical analyses to explain return migration. The volume contains a cumulative bibliography, name index, subject index, a note on the authors and the conference programme.
