Seminar and Discussion
Labour Migration After the EU-Enlargement. Recent trends and dynamics on the transnational labour market in Central Europe

Martin Kahanec & Marta Kahancová
Central European University (Budapest), Institut zur Zukunft der Arbeit (IZA, Bonn),
and Central European Labour Studies Institute (CELSI, Bratislava)

Wednesday, 13th April 2011, 14.00-17.00
University of Vienna, NIG, 6th floor, room C0628A

The question of labour mobility is one of the most politicised issues linked to the last two enlargement-rounds of the EU. Obviously, there are complex and important developments going on – but what do we really know about the dynamics and effects of labour mobility in the emergent transnational labour-market in Central-Europe? Martin Kahanec and Marta Kahancová (from the Central European University and the Central European Labour Studies Institute) will present some of their findings on the processes happening on both the micro and the macro level and thus provide an opportunity to discuss political as well as methodological challenges implied by recent developments.

The seminar and discussion is co-organized by the Departement of Methods in the Social Sciences (University of Vienna), the Research Platform Migration and Integration Research (University of Vienna), and the Section „Comparative European Politics“ of the Austrian Political Science Association (ÖGPW).
