Abstract :
[en] In this article, we examine migration as one strategy used by Southern European EU citizens in reaction to the global financial and economic crisis. First of
all, we will present the main sociodemographic
characteristics of these new migrants and demonstrate
how they resemble or differ from preceding
EU South-North migratory waves. Then we will discuss
the political response adopted by southern
and northern EU Member States in reaction to these
new flows. And we will finish with a series of conclusions
that this migratory episode allows us to reach
regarding the EU’s management of migratory issues
with third countries.
