The Eastern European Left Media Outlet \u2013 ELMO<\/a> recently published a multilingual thematic article series<\/a> and organized a panel discussion on transnational migration<\/a> in Central and Eastern European context. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflecting on this topic is relevant, in the words of the curators of the series, \u201enot only because migration is a source of political gain, and indeed an opportunity for very real and fast capital accumulation, but also since migration stands in front of us as a contemporary development full of contradictions. It shapes social, economic, and political development, as well as the lives of peoples and communities in the broader region.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changes linked to migration that impact societies of Central Eastern Europe include continuous labour migration for higher wages and better working conditions, directed towards richer regions of the EU; the rise of a migration commercial infrastructure and associated industries (ranging from brokers of transnational employment to human trafficking networks); abrupt changes in border regimes due to Covid-19 restrictions; developments stemming from the so-called \u201cEuropean migration crisis\u201d of 2015; the ongoing migration resulting from Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ELMO series on transnational migration contributes to the understanding of these changes and other factors linked to migration. The speakers on the panel expand the discussion both by reflecting on the texts and by sharing their insights stemming from their own theoretical and practical work related to migration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The speakers of the pannel are Attila Melegh<\/strong> (Institute of Sociology at Corvinus University of Budapest, Demographic Research Institute in Budapest and Karl Polanyi Research Center), Goran Luki\u0107<\/strong> (Counselling Office for Workers, Slovenia), Marta Stoji\u0107 Mitrovi\u0107<\/strong> (The Institute of Ethnography of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts), Olena Fedyuk<\/strong> (Research fellow in the project \u201cRightsLab: Towards Transnational Labour Rights?\u201c, University of Padua). <\/p>\n\n\n
