Details

This open access book takes a multi-disciplinary approach to the phenomenon of investment migration in order to better understand it and its legal, political, and conceptual implications.

The book consists of three parts. The first part documents recent trends in investment migration and seeks to comprehend its implications for our understanding of the concept of citizenship. The second part provides a legal and normative assessment of investment migration, from the perspective of both EU and international law. The third part presents case studies on investment migration practices in countries around the world, including countries that have so far remained under-researched. The book assembles several of the leading experts in the field, from law, sociology, and politics, and is based on a selection of the most interesting contributions to Investment Migration Working Papers. It gives a balanced, expert analysis of a sometimes controversial field of the law of immigration and citizenship.
