Sociology of Migration

Edited by Robin Cohen, Professor of Development Studies and Director, International Migration Institute, University of Oxford, UK

'A collection like this is useful as it helps save time in the search for relevant literature and helps finding interesting articles from less-known journals one might have missed otherwise. Together the volumes comprise a large collection of contributions to migration research, and therefore may have great practical value to those engaged in it - particularly those just starting their research.'
