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.Foreign workers, PolishSocial conditionsGermanyForeign workers, PolishSocial conditionsCanadaPolish peopleSocial conditionsGerrmany(Im)Mobility.Canada.Germany.Globalization.Interculturalism.Lifestyle.Polish Migrants.Social Inequality.Sociology.Foreign workers, PolishSocial conditionsForeign workers, PolishSocial conditionsPolish peopleSocial conditions303.48243804309041Wieczorek Anna Xymena1985-1222531Knowledge Unlatched - KU Select 2020: Backlist Collectionfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996398645503316Migration and (im)mobility2835468UNISA
