New article on stay-return motivations, Brexit & Covid-19

Our new article on stay-return motivations among the UK-based Polish migrant essential workers is now out in Mobilities – a major academic journal examining the movements of people, objects, capital and information. The article looks at what encourages migrant Poles to stay in the UK, return to Poland and/or migrate elsewhere and how the combination of Brexit and Covid-19 shapes these motivations. It conceptualises Brexit and Covid-19 as polycrisis, i.e. multiple, mutually reinforcing crises, and illustrates how the combination of both produces a new context against which migrant aspirations and transnational mobilities are negotiated. The article is fully available online and you can read it HERE.
