International Migration and Rural Areas (eBook, ePUB)

Cross-National Comparative Perspectives
Redaktion: Jentsch, Birgit

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

While immigrants are still predominantly choosing urban areas to locate to, there is now increasing evidence of immigration to rural areas, leading to its own challenges for immigrants. Addressing the shortcomings in current research, this book employs an innovative approach by exploring this relationship from a cross-national, comparative and global perspective. It will appeal to policy makers as well as scholars across a range of disciplines.
