’There is much to admire in Agnieszka Kubal’s meticulously researched and theoretically innovative account...The book will be of interest to socio-legal scholars of migration as well as to anthropologists and sociologists tracking mobilities within and into Europe. Moreover, Kubal’s rich and varied bibliography will be an excellent resource for students of the sociolegal aspects of migration everywhere.’ Slavic Journal 'There is a good deal of popular, but usually poorly-informed, commentary on the question of whether and to what extent post-2004 Polish migrants are adjusting to a British way of life. Agnieszka Kubal has lifted this debate to a new level. She does this by skilfully deploying a combination of social theory, the idea of legal culture and a deep appreciation of the dilemmas and responses of the migrants themselves. In depicting how an initial indifference to the law slowly gives way to a complex interplay between migrants' agency and the new socio-legal environment in which they find themselves, Dr. Kubal has made a vital contribution to the general question of how to understand integration in a transnational world.' Robin Cohen, University of Oxford, UK 'By introducing legal culture as a crucial intermediate factor of migrant integration, Agnieszka Kubal has succeeded in offering a new and innovative perspective to the study of contemporary intra-EU labour mobility.'
