The Greek Neo-migration to Germany

Abstract

A new phase of mass migration has taken place due to the “economic crisis” that Greece has entered into as of 2010, with countries of destination this time primarily being European Union countries and secondarily traditional Greek immigration countries such as the U.S., Canada and Australia. The purpose of this study is to investigate the process of moving, settling, and the integration of new Greek immigrants in Germany as well as their establishment and future orientation there. In particular the study deals with: 1. The profile of neo-migrants 2. Reasons and ways for migration 3. Settling and integration procedures in the new country 4. Organization, self-organization 5. Future orientations.
