Since the 2004 enlargement of the European Union over half a
million Polish migrants have registered to work in the United
Kingdom, constituting one of the largest migration movements in
contemporary Europe. Drawing on research undertaken across a wide
range of disciplines - history, economics, sociology, anthropology,
film studies and discourse analysis - and focusing on both the
Polish and British aspects of this phenomenon - both emigration and
immigration - this edited collection investigates what is actually
new about this migration flow, what its causes and consequences
are, and how these migrants' lives have changed by moving to the
United Kingdom. As the first book to deal with Polish migration to
the United Kingdom, Polish Migration to the UK in the 'New'
European Union will appeal to scholars across a range of social
sciences, whose work concerns migration and the migration process.
