This Working paper explored migration trends within the Balkans and between the Balkans and the EU. With regard to internal migration trends, particular emphasis was placed on forced migration and rural-urban migration flows as a result of the disintegration of Yugoslavia. With respect to migration from this region and into the EU, our WP focused on Albanian migration into two relatively new EU host migration countries (Greece and Italy) that have been profoundly affected by the inflow of an Albanian workforce. This involved extensive surveys with Albanian immigrants and with employers of Albanian immigrants. A workshop and an edited volume on migration flows in Europe published by Longo Ravenna are among the key outputs.
