Mobilities within the European Union (EU) have changed
significantly since the classical intra-regional migrations of the
1950s–1970s. After a period of reduced, less visible flows in the
21st century mobilities increased again, first linked to EU
expansion towards the East, and from 2008, with renewed South-North
flows following the impact of the Great Recession on Southern
European countries. It is in this context that the current volume
explores how these recent migrations reflect new and more complex
patterns of mobility, increasingly uncertain and unstable,
involving both natives and naturalised migrants. It also seeks to
unpack the multiple connections between these new migration systems
and other systems affecting social protection, gender and
citizenship, and how these intersect with other factors such as
class, age, race and ethnicity. The different chapters of the book
examine this covering a wide variety of cases, including intra-EU
flows from Portugal and Spain, recent Spanish and Latin American
migrants in London, Paris and Brussels, and Romanian migration to
the UK and France, thus adding to its richness. This book will be
of interest to academics, researchers and advanced students of
Sociology, Anthropology, Geography, Gender Studies, Public Policy,
and Politics. It was originally published as a special issue of
Ethnic and Racial Studies.

This book makes a timely contribution to debates surrounding
transnational political participation, the relationship between
diasporas and conflict, and the gendered experiences of migrants.
It fills a significant lacuna in research by analysing how migrants
relate to and become involved in the politics of their home and
host countries, and how transnational political fields emerge and
function. The author achieves this by focusing on the little known
but instructive case of Colombian migration to Europe, and the
connections between these flows and the armed conflict and efforts
for peace in Colombia. Shedding light on different types of
migration and the rising complexity of international population
movements, this innovative work will appeal to students and
scholars of migration and diaspora studies, gender, political
participation, conflict and peace studies and Latin American
studies. It will also interest policy makers and community
development workers engaged in these areas.
