The book offers a comprehensive analysis of labor flows in the Mediterranean during the nineteenth century, addressing its unique economic dynamics. It explores the contrasting impacts of globalization on the Western and Eastern Mediterranean, questioning the reasons behind rising wage inequality in the East and low emigration rates from Iberia. By connecting these issues to historical debates on intra-Mediterranean integration and current discussions on North African emigration to Europe, it sheds light on the complexities of the region's economic integration with the global economy.
