Abstract
The recent rapid and increasing flows of migrants, from North Africa, determined to reach various European destinations, received much media coverage and incited continuous academic and political debates concerning the causes and consequences of this phenomenon. This research project contributes to this debate by examining the multidimensional dynamics of these migration waves. I argue that the current migration is shaped by socio-economic and political contexts in both “sending” and “receiving” countries. Topics covered include the demographic characteristics of migrants, main causes of migration, and the socio-economic and political consequences of migration in both regions.
