Asiatische Bildungsmobilität: Eine vergleichende Studie der internationalen Migration von japanischen und chinesischen Studierenden

Principal investigator Thomas Faist (Principal Investigator ), Yasemin Soysal (Principal Investigator )
Description
In dem Projekt wird eine systematische und komparative Analyse über asiatische Studierendenmobilität durchgeführt werden. Dabei handelt es sich um eine der weltweit stärksten bildungsbezogenen Migrationsbewegungen. Wir möchten neue Einblicke über den Zusammenhang zwischen bildungsbezogener Mobilität, Lebensplanung und Lebensverlauf gewinnen. Unser Forschungsdesign ist innovativ: Wir schlagen auf der Basis eines repräsentativen Samples von japanischen und chinesischen Studierenden einen dreifachen Vergleich vor: zwischen (1) japanischen und chinesischen Studierenden an britischen und deutschen Universitäten, (2) im Inland verbliebenen chinesischen und japanischen Studierenden und (3) nach Japan migrierten chinesischen Studierenden. Durch solche Vergleiche, und unter Verwendung von verschiedenen multivariaten Methoden und Netzwerkanalysen, erwarten wir einige theoretische Aspekte aufdecken zu können, etwa im Hinblick auf die Selektivität bildungsbezogener Mobilität, die Formierung individueller Präferenzen für regionale oder überregionale Migration, und die unterschiedlichen Auswirkungen solcher Präferenzen auf den wahrgenommenen Wert und die Möglichkeiten tertiärer Bildung für die zukünftige Lebensplanung. Zusätzlich zu der Generierung von wertvollen Umfragedaten über die Migration von chinesischen und japanischen Studierenden, wird die Forschung einer Reihe von nicht-akademischen Interessenvertretern, einschließlich Regierungen, tertiären Bildungseinrichtungen, think-tanks und Organisationen, die in die Bereitstellungen von Informationen und Unterstützung für internationale Studierende involviert sind, zugute kommen. Das vorgeschlagene Projekt beruht auf dem aktuell geförderten Befragungsprojekt 'Bright Futures: Internal and International Mobility of Chinese Students' der europäischen Partner und deren Kooperation mit Forschern an der Universität Kyoto.

Value Migration – Bleibeabsichten internationaler Studierender

Principal investigator Simon Morris-Lange (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Obwohl internationale Studierende zunehmend als potenzielle Fachkräfte gelten, ist bislang wenig bekannt über ihre Bleibeabsichten. Ziel des Forschungsprojekts war es, die wichtigsten Einflussfaktoren auf die Bleibeabsichten internationaler Studierender erstmalig international vergleichend zu untersuchen. Kernstück des Vorhabens war eine Online-Befragung unter mehr als 6.000 internationalenStudierenden in fünf ausgewählten EU-Staaten (Deutschland, Schweden, Niederlande, Frankreich, Großbritannien). Das Projekt wurde vom SVR-Forschungsbereich in Zusammenarbeit mit der Migration Policy Group (MPG) durchgeführt. Für jedes der untersuchten Länder wurden zudem akademische und öffentliche Partner einbezogen (für Deutschland z. B. der DAAD). Das Forschungsprojekt wurde von der Stiftung Mercator gefördert. Die Ergebnisse wurden im Rahmen einer internationalen Fachtagung im April 2012 vorgestellt und veröffentlicht."

Description
La note de synthèse présente les principaux résultats de l’étude réalisée en 2018 par le Point de contact Luxembourgeois du Réseau Européen des Migrations intitulée : « Attracting and retaining international students in the EU ». Cette étude fournit un aperçu des politiques et pratiques en vigueur au Luxembourg afin d’attirer et de retenir des étudiants internationaux. Elle se base essentiellement sur les informations recueillies jusqu’en novembre 2018 et n’englobe donc que peu d’évolutions qui ont pu se produire après cette date.

Mapping mobility – pathways, institutions and structural effects of youth mobility, Final Public Project Report

Authors Sahizer Samuk, Birte Nienaber, Jutta Bissinger, ...
Description
This report is a synthesis of the main results of the H2020 project MOVE – Mapping mobility, institutions and structural effects of youth mobility in Europe. Over three years the project MOVE has provided a research-informed contribution to a systematic analysis of intra-European mobility. The project departed its work by differentiating six mobility types that have diverse institutional frameworks, age specific constraints and scopes of action. The project has thus analysed and reconstructed mobility patterns that lie across different types of mobility, which are: • student mobility for higher education, • international volunteering, • employment mobility, • mobility for vocational and educational training, • pupil’s exchange, • entrepreneurship mobility. These identified six mobility types have been investigated in the following six European countries: • Germany, • Hungary, • Luxembourg, • Norway, • Romania and • Spain.

Attracting and retaining international students in the EU (Country report Luxembourg)

Authors Ralph Petry, Nicolas Coda, Adolfo Sommarribas, ...
Description
Unlike many other EU Member States, the higher education system in Luxembourg is marked by a particular characteristic, namely the fact that the University of Luxembourg is the only public university in the country. Established by law in 2003, the University of Luxembourg is therefore the main actor in the higher education system and hosts the large majority of international students in Luxembourg. In addition to the University of Luxembourg, two more types of institutions complement the higher education system in Luxembourg and are recognised by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research as higher education institutions (hereafter referred to as ‘HEIs’), namely: 1. Secondary educational institutions offering educational programmes that award an advanced technician’s certificate (‘Brevet de technicien supérieur’ – ‘BTS’); 2. Private foreign universities having infrastructures or campus in Luxembourg. In order to be able to award higher education diplomas as well as to host international students, all HEIs are mandatorily required to be approved by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, with the exception of the University of Luxembourg because it was established by law. The admission conditions for international students to study at a HEI in Luxembourg are twofold: First, the international student must apply and be accepted at an approved HEI or at the University of Luxembourg. Second, once accepted at a HEI, s/he needs to apply for a temporary authorisation of stay, and subsequently, if applicable, a Visa D (valid for 3 months), from his/her country of origin before being authorised to travel to Luxembourg and before being issued a ‘student’ residence permit (valid for minimum 1 year and renewable) in Luxembourg. To conclude, the HEIs in Luxembourg, under the overall auspice of the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, as well as the immigration authorities are the main stakeholders in the context of international students studying in Luxembourg. Luxembourg transposed the Directive (EU) 2016/801 by the Law of 1 August 2018, which amended the amended ‘Immigration Law’ and entered into force on 21 September 2018. In this context, the study highlights in particular the introduction of a new residence permit for ‘private reasons’ in view of seeking employment or establishing a business in Luxembourg. This residence permit was newly introduced by the transposition of the Directive and allows international graduates to remain in the country for a maximum duration of nine months in order to find a job or establish a business in relation to their academic training. Prior to the transposition, international students were only able to change their immigration status to ‘salaried worker’ immediately after their graduation. Moreover, the transposition modified a number of legal dispositions, such as the increase of the maximum amount of hours that students are authorised to work, from 10 hours to 15 hours per week. Furthermore, Bachelor students enrolled in their first year of academic studies as well as students enrolled in a study programme awarding them a ‘BTS’ are no longer excluded from exercising a salaried activity as allowed by law. Lastly, the transposition also facilitates the intra-European mobility of international students who follow a European or multilateral programme that contains mobility measures or a convention between two or more HEIs. The attraction and retention of international students are not considered as a national political priority per se by the Luxembourgish authorities, but have to be perceived in an overall national political priority of attracting “talents” to Luxembourg, i.e. (highly) qualified persons, regardless of their nationality and in the interest of the country and its economy. The stakeholders consulted in the context of this study identified several factors that may have positive effects on the attraction and retention of international students. These include, among others: - the geographical position of Luxembourg with an important financial sector and several European institutions - the multilingual environment of the country as well as the University of Luxembourg - the HEI ranking of the University of Luxembourg - the comparatively low levels of tuition fees, particularly of the national public HEIs - the fact that the level tuition fees is the same for every student, no matter his/her nationality, with the exception of examples from private HEIs Furthermore, the consulted stakeholders identified several examples of good practices in the context of this study, such as for example: - A close and diligent collaboration between all stakeholders, in particular between the Directorate of Immigration, the Ministry of Higher Education and Research and the University of Luxembourg - Quality management of private HEI (mainly through the approval procedure) in view of the best interest of students - Affordable tuitions fees in the higher education system At the same time, the consulted stakeholders have identified several challenges, such as: - the languages of instruction (with a strong emphasis on French and German especially at the Bachelor/‘BTS’ levels) and the primary working languages (French and Luxembourgish) - socio-economic factors, particularly the high costs of living and the challenge of finding affordable housing - authenticity and veracity of transmitted diplomas in the context of a diploma recognition - a challenging procedure related to the entrance exam for international students who hold a high school diploma issued in a country that is not a signatory country of Paris/Lisbon conventions - potential misuse of the ‘student’ residence permit in view of trying to stay in the country instead of succeeding in the studies. In addition to the major legislative change introduced by the transposition of the Directive and the various factors and challenges mentioned above, the study also highlights a number of initiatives, offered in particular by the University of Luxembourg, aiming to support international students after their graduation and to encourage them to establish and/or maintain a connection to the national labour market. The study concludes with a section on bilateral and multilateral cooperation with third countries, both at the level of the Luxembourgish State as well as at the level of HEIs, particularly of the University of Luxembourg.

Les Migrants et leurs mouvements

Principal investigator Mathieu Ichou (Coordinator)
Description
Ce projet prolonge et développe les efforts collectifs de l’unité Migrations internationales et minorités (MIM) visant à explorer la diversité, la complexité et la variabilité des migrations internationales, notamment pour dépasser l’idée de flux unilatéraux de migrants permanents se déplaçant de pays pauvres (au Sud) vers des pays riches (au Nord). Différentes analyses seront développées autour de la mesure des migrations sous toutes leurs formes : flux migratoires passés et présents ; flux entrants mais également sortants – avec toutes les difficultés que leur mesure empirique implique ; migrations temporaires ; migrations circulaires. Plusieurs recherches s’intéresseront à la place et au rôle des migrations internationales dans les trajectoires biographiques individuelles. Une attention particulière sera portée à la sélectivité des migrations internationales, à partir de la comparaison entre les caractéristiques sociales des migrants et celles des non-migrants dans leur pays d’origine. Les trajectoires d’émigration, notamment les mobilités étudiantes mais aussi les remigrations – notamment les migrations de retour d’immigrés dans leur pays de naissance – seront étudiées en détail. Enfin, les conséquences de la migration sur les proches non-migrants constitueront un objet d’étude important, par exemple la situation des familles dont les membres peuvent être dispersés dans plusieurs lieux. L’idée est de souligner la dimension dynamique de ces familles transnationales : échanges et va-et- vient entre les pays de départ et d’arrivée ; recompositions ; trajectoires familiales sur plusieurs pays, au-delà de la dimension binaire (départ/arrivée) ; etc. Financements externes liés à cet axe de recherche : - Projet MAFE https://mafeproject.site.ined.fr/ - Projet TEMPER http://www.temperproject.eu/

Selectief naast restrictief. Evaluatie van de Wet modern migratiebeleid

Authors Research and Documentation Centre, Dutch Ministry of Justice and Security, Gerrie Lodder
Description
Op 1 juni 2013 is de Wet modern migratiebeleid (wet MoMi) in werking getreden. De wet MoMi ziet op een modernisering van het reguliere toelatingsbeleid ten aanzien van migranten van buiten de Europese Unie, de zogenaamde derdelanders. Het reguliere toelatingsbeleid is gedifferentieerd naar verschillende verblijfsdoelen zoals werk, studie of gezinshereniging. De wet MoMi heeft geen betrekking op asielmigratie. De centrale probleemstelling van de wetsevaluatie is: Voldoet de wet MoMi aan de doelstellingen zoals deze door de wetgever zijn geformuleerd bij de totstandkoming van de wettelijke regeling? De probleemstelling is uitgewerkt in drie onderzoeksvragen die corresponderen met de drie hierboven genoemde terreinen: de toelatingsprocedures, de referentensystematiek en toezicht en handhaving. 1.Zijn de toelatingsprocedures voor alle reguliere migranten snel, doeltreffend en beheersbaar? 2.Werkt de referentensystematiek en zijn de administratieve lasten voor burgers en bedrijven zo beperkt mogelijk gehouden? 3.Is het toezicht- en handhavingsmechanisme zoals neergelegd in de wet MoMi (gebaseerd op vertrouwen vooraf en controle achteraf) effectief?

Migration for whose benefit? Pakistani and Indian migrant communities’ remittance sending behavior and integration in Finland and Sweden. (89 500 €)

Principal investigator Zain Ul Abdin ()
Description
Project description: The aim of this doctoral research is to explore contemporary migration and remittance sending behaviors and their impacts on socio-professional integration of migrants from Pakistan and India in Finland and Sweden. The research assumes that distinct groups of migrants carry dissimilar cultural obligations upon migration, which emphasizes the need to compare migrants from different places of origin. As for the integration process, it is argued that acquiring a job to earn and send money back home promotes initial integration but minimizes consumption and the search for support from various compatriots tends to weaken the integration process in the long run. Migrants pushed by stronger obligations to remit spend a fairly longer time doing odd jobs than those with mild compulsions. Not pushed to work longer hours in unskilled jobs, the latter can dedicate more time to finishing their University degrees, learning the language, and eventually turn out to become an entrepreneur or acquire a professional job. The empirical data collection entails participant observations and semi-structured interviews in Malmö and Stockholm in Sweden and Helsinki and Turku in Finland. The primary foci of this research are those migrants who entered on a student visa. This multidisciplinary research addresses an understudied aspect of migrant behaviour, both in Finland and in neighbouring Sweden, namely the relationship between remittance sending and migrant integration. The study asks, who really benefits from migration. Is it the migrant himself/herself or the relatives of the migrant back home who receive the bulk of remittances? The research fills theoretical and empirical gaps regarding different migrant groups' behaviour in remittance vs. integration.

Przejścia młodych z edukacji na rodzimy i zagraniczny rynek pracy: rola lokalności, grupy rówieśniczej i nowych mediów

Principal investigator Izabela Grabowska-Lusińska (Principal Investigator)
Description
Objectives: (1) To explore the role of place of living (locality) in school-to-work transitions to the domestic and foreign labour market by both young females and males; (2) To investigate the roles of parents and relatives in school-to-work transitions to both domestic and foreign labour market of young females and males; (3) To study the role of a peer group in school-to-work transitions to the domestic and the foreign labour market of young females and males; (4) To explore the role of new media and acquaintances connected to them in school-to-work transitions to both domestic and foreign labour market of young females and males; (5) To study how much youngsters use knowledge and skills obtained during education in the labour market and how they use experience acquired abroad after return to Poland. What we already know: The school-to-work (also abroad) transition is not a single event. It is a life phase which can last few years and can consist of various, also temporary jobs with. differentiated content. This is the time in the biographies of youngsters to make up their minds and make decisions for the future occupational paths. After EU enlargement in May 2004, one in three Polish youngsters from small towns and villages had their first jobs abroad. As main reasons they usually indicated financial motivations but in-depth studies uncovered that transiting from Polish education to the foreign labour market means also: firm leaving parental home, self-responsibility, ‘taking life in own hands’, ‘building up self-esteem’. Travels abroad are also for a life style connected to the way of living in multicultural metropolises. This is also a kind of an escape from the local constraining nexus: educationjob-marriage-kid-mortgage. Methodology: The core of the project is a peer group mapped and selected in localities in Poland with different social and economic backgrounds, such as: migration history, postcommunism transition, local labour market etc. Members of selected peer-groups will be monitored throughout the course of three years, in the interludes of 12 months (panel study). We will select 10 peer groups in three selected localities which at the end will give roughly of 320 in-depth interviews in total. The project will also take a social photography of places of living (localities) of youngsters. This social photography will be textured with observations of places where youngsters spend free time, talks with parents, local informants such as school teachers, people from local labour offices, people running clubs and other institutions where youngsters go and content analysis of new media such as: Facebook, blogs, professional portals etc. What the project can offer: Between the waves of talks with youngsters from the selected peer groups, the project will offer free of charge, voluntary coaching and job counselling in the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (University SWPS). The project will give also future opportunities to the youngsters to get involved in the Youth in Centre just established at University SWPS, for instance through participating in Youth Advisory Boards which will be set up to advice youth studies undertaken by the Centre. Originality: Researching the school-to- domestic and- foreign labour market transitions of youngsters through the eyes of members of peer groups who are both movers and stayers.

Haller und J. D. Michaelis – Forschungsreisen nach Lappland, Sibirien, Ägypten, Indien, Amerika und Arabien. Im 19. und zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts intensivierten die mittel- und westeuropäischen Staaten und die USA die universitäre Kooperation. So förderte zum Beispiel das Deutsche Reich seit 1903/05 internationale Austauschprogramme für Schüler, Studenten und Professoren mit den Vereinigten Staaten. Die transnationale akademische Mobilität führte so in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts zur Bildung von länderübergreifenden universitären Forschungsnetzwerken und zur Etablierung globaler Wissenszentren vornehmlich in Deutschland, England, Frankreich und den USA. Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens ist es, die Anfänge, die Entwicklung und die Institutionalisierung akademischer Reisetätigkeit an den deutschen Universitäten vom 18. bis zum Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts zu rekonstruieren und die Bedeutung von internationalen Forschungsreisen für den Aufstieg der deutschen Universitäten zu modernen Zentren der Wissensproduktion und –verbreitung zu untersuchen. Dabei soll u. a. geklärt werden, in welchem Umfang und aus welcher Motivation heraus Universitäten akademische Reisen förderten, in welchen Disziplinen und mit welchen geographischen Schwerpunkten universitäre Forschungsreisen durchgeführt wurden und welchen Einfluss der akademische Austausch von Hochschullehrern und Studenten auf die Entstehung internationaler Forschungsnetzwerke und die Wissenschaftskulturen in den einzelnen Ländern hatte. Als Untersuchungsobjekt wurden sechs deutsche Universitäten ausgewählt: Die beiden alten Universitäten Heidelberg (1386) und Leipzig (1409), die protestantischen Neugründungen Halle (1691), Göttingen (1734) und Berlin (1810) sowie die katholische Universität Würzburg (1582). Die Forschungsarbeit basiert im Wesentlichen auf der quantitativen und qualitativen Auswertung von Materialien aus universitären und staatlichen Archiven. Dabei werden Daten zu den Forschungsreisen (u. a. Name des Forschungsreisenden, Geburtsort, Geschlecht, Religionszugehörigkeit, Hochschultätigkeit, Länge und Ziel der Reise) in einer Datenbank erfasst und Quellen diskursanalytisch im Hinblick die Motive, die Formen und die Bedeutung akademischer Reisen für den Aufstieg der deutschen wissenschaftlichen Hochschulen untersucht."

Migration and the Reshaping of Consumption Patterns

Principal investigator Edoardo Cefala (Principal Investigator), Sylvie Démurger (Investigator)
Description
Suite aux réformes engagées en Chine à la fin des années 1970, des millions de personnes attirées par de meilleures conditions économiques quittent les zones rurales pour travailler temporairement dans les zones urbaines. En parallèle, les migrations internationales en Europe ont également augmenté au cours des vingt dernières années, du fait de l’intégration économique avec les pays en développement. L'objectif du projet est d'étudier comment la migration remodèle les habitudes de consommation des migrants et des personnes indirectement touchées par la migration S’il existe un grand nombre d'études analysant les conséquences de la migration sur le marché du travail, la façon dont la consommation, les comportements de consommation et les inégalités de consommation sont affectés par la migration reste un domaine très peu exploré. L'ambition du projet est de combler cette lacune en répondant aux trois questions de recherche suivantes : a) Quel est l'impact de la Grande Migration sur les modes de consommation ? b) Quelles sont les relations entre les institutions, les changements de population et les habitudes de consommation ? c) La migration conduit-elle à un transfert des normes de consommation ? La recherche montre que la consommation est une mesure idéale pour capter le revenu permanent et donc pour prédire le bien-être économique à long terme. Dans la première question de recherche, nous nous concentrerons sur l'étude de la façon dont la migration affecte la consommation des migrants avant, pendant et après la migration, ainsi que la consommation des personnes qui sont indirectement touchées par la migration (la famille restée à la campagne d’une part, les citadins d’autre part). Avec le vieillissement de la population en Chine et la diminution concomitante de la population en âge de travailler, de nombreuses personnes devront adapter leur comportement en matière de consommation présente et d’épargne pour une consommation future. Le logement est l’un des avoirs principaux qui peut être affecté par ce type d’arbitrage. Notre deuxième question de recherche examinera le lien entre la migration d’une part et la demande de logements et les prix des logements d’autre part, ainsi que la manière dont le logement affecte la consommation des autres biens. L’objectif de la troisième question de recherche est de comprendre si et comment la migration conduit à un transfert de normes de consommation de la destination à la région d’origine. Les travailleurs migrants vivant dans les zones urbaines sont de plus en plus exposés au style de vie urbain, absorbant par là-même le comportement de consommation des citadins. De même, de nombreux jeunes migrants chinois découvrent les valeurs et normes européennes au cours de leur séjour en Europe et cette exposition est susceptible de favoriser un transfert des modes de comportements de consommation en Chine, notamment par le biais des nouvelles technologies, des médias et des réseaux sociaux. L’effet de la migration sur les familles de migrants qui, en Chine, vivent en grande partie encore en zone rurale peut ne pas être toujours positif. Dans le cas de familles recevant des transferts de fonds des migrants, nous mettons en évidence un effet négatif sur l’investissement en capital humain, car ces ménages allouent une part plus faible de leur budget à l'éducation que les ménages non-bénéficiaires de transfert. Cet effet négatif provient à la fois d’une moindre propension à envoyer ses enfants à l’école (au-delà des 9 années obligatoires) et de dépenses moins élevées en éducation (tutorat, frais de scolarité, etc.) lorsque les enfants sont à l’école. Cet investissement moindre en capital humain des familles de migrants pourrait être lié à la perception de rendements faibles de l’éducation rurale sur le marché du travail urbain.

Rückwanderung und Lebenslauf: Das Beispiel rückkehrender Graduierter nach Bulgarien

Principal investigator Birgit Glorius (Principal Investigator)
Description
Das Vorhaben untersucht die Rückwanderungs- bzw. Bleibeentscheidungen bulgarischer Hochschulabsolventen, die einen Studienabschluss in Deutschland erworben haben. Vor dem Hintergrund der ökonomischen, demographischen und gesellschaftlichen Transformationsprozesse in Bulgarien werden Tendenzen der biographischen Unsicherheit, die postmodernen Lebensläufen inhärent sind, weiter verstärkt. Migrationsentscheidungen sind in diesem Zusammenhang als Teil des persönlichen Risikomanagements anzusprechen, die darauf abzielen, Risiken zu minimieren und dem eigenen Lebenslauf Stringenz zu verleihen. Die bereits getroffene Migrationsentscheidung für einen Studienaufenthalt in Deutschland verbreitert das Entscheidungsspektrum für weiterführende Migrationsentscheidungen, die häufig eng mit biographischen Statuspassagen verknüpft sind. Das Projekt verfolgt die Zielsetzung, am Beispiel der Rückwanderungs- und Bleibeentscheidungen von bulgarischen Graduierten eine Modellierung des Entscheidungs- und Standortfindungsprozesses zu vollziehen, in der individuelle Entscheidungs- und Handlungsmuster, eingebettet in kontextuelle Bedingungen, nachvollzogen werden können. Die Typisierung erfolgt durch eine Abstraktion der individuellen Entscheidungs- und Handlungsmuster unter Einbezug von Ansätzen der Migrations-, Handlungs- und Gesellschaftstheorien. Das Forschungsdesign konzentriert sich auf die Implementierung lebenslaufbezogener Ansätze in der Migrationsforschung, bei denen der Fokus auf dem retrospektiven Nachvollziehen von Migrationsbiographien liegt. Als räumliche Betrachtungsperspektive wird der transnationale Ansatz gewählt und die Annahme getroffen, dass sich die zu untersuchenden Biographien und Entscheidungsmuster jenseits nationalstaatlicher Container aufspannen und somit vielfältige Handlungsoptionen ermöglichen, aber auch neue Risiken bereithalten. Ebenso wird durch die transnationale Perspektive eine raumzeitliche Vorläufigkeit von Mobilitätsentscheidungen angenommen. Die Fokussierung auf die Rückwanderung ist weniger als normative Komponente zu verstehen, sondern weist auf die Beobachtungsrichtung der Forschung hin. Im Ergebnis der Forschung soll eine Typologie entstehen, die verschiedene Entscheidungsstrategien im Kontext von biographischen Etappen, Persönlichkeitsmerkmalen, institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen und weiteren kontextuellen Faktoren ordnet. Dabei wird eine raumzeitliche Öffnung angestrebt, indem alle räumlichen Migrationsoptionen und verschiedene zeitliche Optionen aus der Sichtweise der Migranten berücksichtigt werden. Die Konzentration auf die Akteursperspektive eröffnet eine tiefere Durchdringung der Entscheidungsmuster im Kontext von Mobilität und Lebenslauf.
