Produktbeschreibung
Coastal Turkey, quite recently emerged as a new
destination for Western European migrants who are
on the move for more personal, quality of life
related motives. These sun-seeking patchwork-
biography
makers" are notably visible - not only in several
towns but also on the political agenda of the
country which has lately been marked by an
ambivalence of its relations with the European
Union.
Based on a qualitative research carried out during
2006 in Didim, a coastal town in Western Turkey with
an established brand name Altinkum in the
the mass tourism market, this book provides
an account of the experiences of the British
migrants and the locals. Exploring the meaning
of this migratory phenomenon for the parties
involved, it aims at shedding some light on some
of
the ways that broader and structural changes under
the conditions of late modernity and globalisation
are impacting individuals and
creating new challenges. Hence it might be
of interest to scholars researching voluntary
migration but also might prove useful for the
policy makers
of home
and host countries.
