The Temporary Nature of Ukrainian Migration: Definitions, Determinants and Consequences

Abstract

Ukrainian migration is an important case in the investigation of the temporariness of international mobility from a conceptual and empirical perspective. It also enables the role of temporality to be explored as an analytical dimension in migration studies. This chapter examines causes and consequences of the temporariness of international mobility and considers how different temporal forms of migration are distinguished, conceptualized and addressed in the literature on Ukrainian migration to Europe.
