Exploring the Dynamics of Migration in Central and Eastern Europe
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Migration Policy Analysis:
The journal frequently publishes studies examining the impact of migration policies at local, national, and European levels, highlighting how these policies shape the experiences of migrants and the responses of host societies. - Socio-Cultural Dynamics of Migration:
Research often focuses on the socio-cultural aspects of migration, including integration, identity formation, and the role of ethnic networks, providing insights into the everyday lives of migrants and their interactions with local communities. - Economic Contributions of Migrants:
The journal explores the economic dimensions of migration, including migrant entrepreneurship and labor market participation, emphasizing how migrants contribute to the economies of host countries and their home regions. - Vulnerabilities and Resilience:
A significant focus is placed on the vulnerabilities faced by migrants, such as those related to health, legal status, and social integration, along with studies on resilience strategies adopted by migrant communities. - Global and Regional Contextualization:
The journal situates Central and Eastern European migration within broader global and regional contexts, analyzing transnational connections and the impact of geopolitical changes on migration flows.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of the Ukraine Crisis on Migration:
Recent publications are increasingly focused on the migration dynamics resulting from the Ukraine crisis, particularly the experiences of Ukrainian forced migrants and the responses of host countries. - Intersectionality in Migration Experiences:
There is a growing emphasis on intersectional approaches that examine how various social identities (e.g., gender, ethnicity, and class) intersect to shape the migration experiences and challenges faced by individuals. - Migrant Integration and Community Relations:
Research on the integration of migrants into host societies, including host-guest relations and community dynamics, is becoming more prevalent, reflecting the importance of social cohesion in migration contexts. - Migrant Entrepreneurship and Economic Integration:
An increasing number of studies are exploring the entrepreneurial activities of migrants and their contributions to local economies, highlighting the role of ethnic networks and transnational ties. - Health and Well-Being of Migrants:
Emerging research focuses on the health and well-being of migrant populations, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, addressing the unique challenges faced by these communities.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Labor Migration Studies:
Research centered solely on traditional labor migration patterns is becoming less prominent, as recent publications increasingly emphasize the complexities of migration experiences beyond economic factors. - Static National Identity Perspectives:
Studies focusing exclusively on national identity in relation to migration are declining, giving way to more nuanced analyses that consider intersectionality and the hybrid identities of migrants. - Asylum and Refugee Status Analysis:
While still relevant, the analysis of asylum policies and refugee statuses has seen a reduction in standalone articles, as the focus shifts towards broader migration dynamics and experiences. - Historical Migration Trends:
Research that strictly examines historical migration trends in isolation is less frequent, with current studies favoring contemporary issues and their implications for future migration patterns. - Single Case Studies:
There is a noticeable decline in single case studies that do not relate to broader themes or comparative analyses, as the journal increasingly seeks to feature research that draws connections across different contexts.
