With the help of rich empirical data gathered among young adults of Polish heritage in Germany and Canada, Wieczorek conceptualizes three patterns of (im)mobility which illustrate the diversity of immigrants' geographical movements after their initial migration. She thus reveals the different social configurations promoting or hindering the development, maintenance or shifting of each pattern in migrants' biographical trajectories.Kultur und soziale Praxis.Wieczorek, Migration and (Im)MobilityBiographical Experiences of Polish Migrants in Germany and CanadaMigration(Im)MobilityPolish MigrantsGermanyCanadaSocial InequalityGlobalizationInterculturalismLifestyleSociologyMigration(Im)MobilityPolish MigrantsGermanyCanadaSocial InequalityGlobalizationInterculturalismLifestyleSociology303.48243804309041Wieczorek Anna Xymena<p>Anna Xymena Wieczorek, IRTG Diversity, Germany</p>aut1887727Knowledge Unlatched - KU Select 2020: Backlist Collectionfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910476912603321Migration and (Im)Mobility4525292UNINA
