Migrationssoziologie

This textbook addresses questions about the causes, dimensions and consequences of local and global migration movements using social science theories and studies. The book is based on the ‘down-to-earth’ approach: the complex interrelationships and theories are illustrated using many examples from different social and political contexts. The book is divided into 14 chapters, making it suitable for studying the individual topics in the course of a semester. Discussion questions, reading recommendations and summaries offer all interested parties a low-threshold introduction to the topic.
