"Fast-growing nations of the Middle East and North Africa have a surplus of young workers, while shrinking European countries having ever fewer youth entering the labor force. These fundamental push and pull factors combine with policies, politics, and climate change and other factors to shape one of the world's most complex migration corridors." -- Philip Martin, University of California, Davis"[A] very well edited publication which addresses an extremely topical subject from an important perspective. Many of the chapters are by internationally recognised experts in the field, presenting new analysis." -- Michael Collyer, University of Sussex
