About this ebook
We are thankful to Transnational Press London as it believed in our aspirations as editors and it stimulated us to be protagonists in the process of editing and building up this book the way we believed it would contribute to the current discussions on migration. As scholars and young researchers, we are delighted by this opportunity created by Professor Sirkeci.
“International migration is one of the most challenging and critical factors shaping the future of societies and economies today. Its accumulated complexity challenges academics, politicians, professionals and citizens. Bringing together the voices of authors from diverse countries and backgrounds, belonging to a new generation of researchers, this book brings new clues to understand how modern policies are built and new tools to act for a better world.”
