Eurostars and Eurocities: Free Movement and Mobility in an Integrating Europe

Eurostars and Eurocities: Free Movement and Mobility in an Integrating Europe examines intra-European Union migration in the cities of Amsterdam, London and Brussels.

  • Based on sixty in-depth interviews of free moving European citizens, and more than five years of ethnographic and documentary research, it uncovers the rarely studied human dimension of European integration
  • Examines the mobility, lifestyle and career opportunities created by the borderless society of the European Union, as well as the barriers that still persist
  • Analyses the new migration trends, challenges to the welfare state, and forms of urban cosmopolitanism linked to processes of European integration
