This open access book provides insight on current patterns of
migration in Switzerland, which fall along a continuum from
long-term and permanent to more temporary and fluid. These patterns
are shaped by the interplay of legal norms, economic drivers and
societal factors. The various dimensions of this Migration-Mobility
Nexus are investigated by means of newly collected survey data: the
Migration-Mobility Survey. The book covers different aspects of
life in the host country, including the family dimension, the
labour market and political participation as well as social
integration. The book also takes into account the chronological
dimension of migration by considering the migrants' arrival, their
stay, and their expectations regarding return. Through applying
conclusions drawn from the Swiss context to the migration
literature on other European and high-income countries, this book
contributes to new knowledge on current migration processes in
high-income countries. As such it will be a valuable reference work
to scholars and students in migration, social scientists and policy
makers.
