Migration into Southern Europe: Some Reflections on Policy Implications

George Katrougalos and Gabriella Lazaridis

Chapter 6 in Southern European Welfare States, 2003, pp 167-190 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The geographical mobility of people has increased markedly during the last half-century. International migration movements have become a major issue in population and societal change in both more and less affluent countries. Furthermore, the issues surrounding economic migrants, refugees and asylum seekers are high on the agendas of governments and social policy analysts around the world. International leisure and social travel have also been increasing rapidly, encouraged by reductions in the real cost of air travel and rising affluence. These changes have implications for the migrants, who include both older people and young adults seeking work, but who have received little attention to date in social policy.
