Poland's post-war dynamic of migration

The phenomenon of East-West European migration was largely neglected in the past by researchers and policy makers, but has become a controversial and important topic for the international community. This volume is a comprehensive, combined socio-economic and political analysis of the trends and mechanisms of international migration from and into Poland since 1945, from the point of view of the forthcoming enlargement of the European Union. The author describes in depth the mechanisms of population processes in the period before the collapse of communism and during the transition period that followed.
