Description
The New Albanian Migration by Russell King, Nicola Mai and Stephanie Schwandner-Sievers explores one of Europe's most significant mass migrations since 1990. This book examines the causes, chronology, and impact of the exodus of a substantial share of Albania's population on its homeland, destination countries, and migrants themselves. The authors draw on richly documented case studies to present a detailed picture of this phenomenon, covering topics such as the experiences of Albanian migrants in Greece, Italy, and the United States, the reception of Greek society to the sudden influx of immigrants, and the potential for return migration and remittances to stimulate Albanian economic development. The book also sheds light on the complex dynamics of migration, ethnicity, and identity in the Greek-Albanian border zone. As a valuable resource for scholars of European migration and specialists in Albanian, Balkan, and Mediterranean studies, this book offers a nuanced understanding of one of the most significant mass migrations of recent years.
