Beschreibung
Migration requires constant re-evaluation and compromise, and since 1950 the migration landscape has undergone significant change. Government migration policies, the end of Empire, a global migrant pool and improved transport and communication links have all played a role. Using the oral testimony from sojourners and settlers, this book explores both forms of modern migration by comparing the changing challenges and differing experiences of Scottish migrants in New Zealand and Hong Kong. Iain Watson develops an understanding of the motivations behind contemporary settler and sojourner migration and of how different host environments and individual circumstances can impact on the way migrants use their Scottish identity to locate themselves within their destinations.
