How Migrants Choose Their Destinations. Factors Influencing Post-EU Accession Choices and Decisions to Remain

Just in time to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the enlargement of the EU, Routledge has published Dominika Pszczółkowska’s book „How Migrants Choose Their Destinations: Factors Influencing Post-EU Accession Choices and Decisions to Remain”. It explores how Polish post-2004 migrants to the UK, Ireland, Germany and the Netherlands chose their destinations (e.g. why did some prefer Ireland over the UK?; why did many treat the Netherlands as a second-choice destination?). It also looks at how the factors considered changed over time and life stage, and how reasons for remaining at the destination compared to reasons for choosing it in the first place.
