Subject: CEEMR CfP: International migration and socio-economic transition in
Central and Eastern Europe
Dear All
Some of you might be interested in the CfP to Special Issue of Central and
Eastern European Migration Review (CEEMR):
*International migration and socio-economic transition in Central and
Eastern Europe*
CEEMR Special Issue, Call for abstracts
Editors: Agata Górny, Paweł Kaczmarczyk
It has been three decades since the beginning of the political and economic
transition in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The growth of international
migration from and into the region has been an integral part of the social
and economic change. The exploration of these population movements has been
marked by two simultaneous tendencies. On the one hand, research on CEE
migration has been incorporated into mainstream migration scholarship. On
the other hand, methodological and theoretical approaches specific to the
region have been developed.
The goal of the Special Issue is to demonstrate the contribution of the
research on migration in the region to broadly defined migration literature.
Among the topics that deserve attention in this regard we find:
-the perspective of the sending countries (return migration, the role of
remittances - both social and economic - for sending areas, etc.) in the
context of the migration-development nexus;
-the role of the EU enlargement (lifting of legal barriers for labour
migration in the context of high emigration pressures) in shaping migration
strategies of CEE migrants (and in the context of the European migration
system);
-the formation of migration policy both as a response to the need for its
harmonisation with the EU requirements and as an outcome of country- and
region-specific processes;
-the role of political changes in shaping migration patterns (EU accessions,
enlargement of the Schengen Area, changes in visa requirements, etc.);
-the notion of integration in the context of fluid and temporary forms of
emigration and immigration;
-attitudes towards ethnic diversity / foreigners in countries with low-scale
immigration and few experiences with the inflow of foreigners (especially in
the context of recent developments in this regard related to the migration
crisis in Europe);
-methodological challenges in studying high-scale emigration and low-scale
(mainly temporary) immigration.
