In the Cambridge Dictionary migration is defined as the process of people traveling to a new place to live, usually in large numbers. There are two main types of migration: voluntary migration and forced migration. Voluntary migration may depend on the changes in one’s life course (getting married, empty-nest, retirement), politics (for instance for those who aim to move from a conservative state to a more liberal one), individual preferences (for instance about suburban life versus city life). Forced migration comprises four main types, on which we focus in this thesis: refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, and stateless persons. This thesis focuses on forced migration, analyzing its main factors and going deeper into flows in Europe, but considering also critical major host countries outside Europe. The phenomenon of migration will be observed at different scales: the global scale, the European scale, the national scale. The thesis adopts a long-term view, looking through the history of migration in order to understand the main changes over time in the world flows.
Nel Cambridge Dictionary la migrazione è definita come il processo di persone che viaggiano verso un nuovo posto dove vivere, di solito in gran numero. Esistono due tipi principali di migrazione: migrazione volontaria e migrazione forzata. La migrazione volontaria può dipendere dai cambiamenti nel proprio corso di vita (matrimonio, nido vuoto, pensione), dalla politica (ad esempio per coloro che mirano a passare da uno stato conservatore a uno più liberale), dalle preferenze individuali (ad esempio sulla periferia vita contro vita di città). La migrazione forzata comprende quattro tipologie principali, su cui ci concentriamo in questa tesi: rifugiati, richiedenti asilo, sfollati interni e apolidi. Questa tesi si concentra sulla migrazione forzata, analizzando i suoi principali fattori e approfondendo i flussi in Europa, ma considerando anche i principali paesi ospitanti critici al di fuori dell'Europa. Il fenomeno della migrazione sarà osservato a diverse scale: la scala globale, la scala europea, la scala nazionale. La tesi adotta una visione di lungo periodo, guardando attraverso la storia delle migrazioni per comprendere i principali cambiamenti nel tempo nei flussi mondiali.

Abstract
In the Cambridge Dictionary migration is defined as the process of people traveling to a new place to live, usually in large numbers. There are two main types of migration: voluntary migration and forced migration. Voluntary migration may depend on the changes in one’s life course (getting married, empty-nest, retirement), politics (for instance for those who aim to move from a conservative state to a more liberal one), individual preferences (for instance about suburban life versus city life). Forced migration comprises four main types, on which we focus in this thesis: refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, and stateless persons. This thesis focuses on forced migration, analyzing its main factors and going deeper into flows in Europe, but considering also critical major host countries outside Europe. The phenomenon of migration will be observed at different scales: the global scale, the European scale, the national scale. The thesis adopts a long-term view, looking through the history of migration in order to understand the main changes over time in the world flows.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
