Martin Kahanec: Labour migrants and migration policies in the EU: beliefs, evidence, and ways forward

Why to care about migration and mobility in the EU? What mobility do we have in the EU? What are the roles and effects of EU mobility? And what migration policy options do we have? The lecture shares an economist perspective on labour migration policies, compares different perceptions and narratives surrounding migration with evidence and is rethinking ways forward in future migration policies.

This lecture was part of the 8th EMN Educational Seminar on Migration 2021 entitled "Migration in a Multilateral World". The Seminar is organised by the International Organization for Migration Slovakia as the coordinator of the Slovak EMN National Contact Point. This activity is funded by the European Union and co-funded by the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic.
