Reviews

“Aiming to bridge different disciplinary approaches, especially economics and other social sciences, this anthology is an invaluable addition to the interdisciplinary literature in the field of migration." -- Pieter Bevelander, Associate Professor, International Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER) and Malmö Institute of Migration, Diversity and Welfare (MIM), Malmö University "Migrants and Markets is an excellent example of fruitful cooperation among economists, sociologists and political scientists. From the impact Chinese student migration has on the UK and France to varying methodologies for remittance research, the array of topics is testament to how different fields can mutually enrich each other.” -- Thomas Straubhaar, Director of the Hamburg Institute of International Economics and Professor of Economics at the University of Hamburg
