Who migrates from one country to another, and to what extent such a migration is successful, depends to a substantial degree on social contexts and the social background of individuals. While social inequalities between countries cause differences in migration patterns, a migration background in conjunction with social contexts can also generate social inequalities in the destination countries.
This seminar looks at the manifold links between social inequality, the family and migration from different perspectives. Using a variety of examples from current research, the complex interrelationships are to be understood.
