Axis 1. Programme 1. Migratory networks and international migrations

The research incorporated in this programme aims to reveal the transformations in migratory patterns in light of the globalisation process. It centres less on the phenomenon of the mobility itself, which is thoroughly studied by geographers who focus on the spatial dimensions, pathways and networks of the migrations, but focuses rather on the social forms and processes that these movements generate. The research concentrates on new social bonds stemming from […]

The effects of these changes on certain categories of the national working population, in particular those with immigrant family heritage, are […]
