More specifically, METOIKOS studies the links between different types of circular migration and processes of integration (in the country of destination) and reintegration (in the source country). It identifies the main challenges and opportunities involved in circular ...

Poles deported in the past to Kazakhstan were mostly inhabitants of territories which did not belong to Poland; neither were they citizens of Poland. Therefore, the process of adaptation and integration was rather painful. The article points to factors that may simplify and those that may impede integration. The other problem...concerns the piecemeal policy towards Kazakhstan Poles, adopted by the Polish government, which seems risky if not dangerous. The author explains why it may cause a huge wave of illegal immigration to Poland."

The character and scale of these movements are of considerable significance, not only for politicians and societies in the CEE region, but also for European integration. The Polish eastern border is likely to remain one of the few places in Europe where it will be possible to control mobility on the East-West axis. One cannot discuss East-West mobility without discussing the emigration of Poles.

International Migration, 2011

The undocumented migrant, from his/her part, relatively easily finds work that suits his -- at least initial -- plans. What lies behind this nexus between irregular migration and informal economy? To what extent can this nexus be attributed to the structural features of the so-called “secondary”, as opposed to “primary”, labour market? And how does migration policy correlate with this economic context and lead to the entrapment of migrants in irregularity? Finally, can this vicious cycle of interests and life-strategies be broken and what does the experience of the migrants indicate in this respect? This paper addresses these questions via an exploration of the grounds upon which irregular migration and the shadow economy complement each other in southern Europe (SE) and central and Eastern Europe (CEE) (two regions at different points in the migration cycle). In doing so, the dynamic character of the nexus between informal economy and irregular migration will come to the fore, and the abstract identity of the “average” undocumented migrant will be deconstructed.

As a result the cost of tourist vouchers and the minimum amount of money required on entry to Poland were lowered (Iglicka, forthcoming a).

Emphasis is placed on the migration into Poland from the former USSR countries since 1989, in the context of the recent geopolitical shifts in the CEE region: collapse of communist rule and forthcoming European Union enlargement. Although stress has been put on ongoing changes in migratory patterns and mechanisms that began after the collapse of the political regime, it is also emphasised here that one should not analyse trends that occurred after 1989 without understanding the history and mechanism of migration prior to that date. Therefore, trends and mechanisms of migration into Poland observed during the transition period are examined from the perspective of the migration system approach.
