What Makes People Want to Come to Germany: a survey experiment in Senegal and the Gambia

Dario Portong

WZB-Mitteilungen: Quartalsheft für Sozialforschung, 2024, issue 183 (1/24), Online-Supplement

Abstract: Policy makers, civil society actors and migration researchers often argue that people from authoritarian states are fleeing to Germany to seek democracy and freedom. Others counter that economic opportunities are the primary motivation. A survey experiment in Senegal and the Gambia, two West African Muslim countries, provides clues as to why migrants are drawn to Germany.
