Migration and social pathways
Biographies of Highly Educated People Moving East-West-East in Europe
The landscape of European migration has changed considerably over the past decades, in particular after the fall of the iron curtain and again after the EU enlargement to the east. The author researches the phenomenon of highly qualified migration using the example of migration between the Czech Republic and Germany. The book reveals diverse strategies migrants use to respond to the possible de-valuation of their qualification, e. g. by making use of their language skills, starting new studies or using transnational knowledge.
