Migrasjon og mobilitet – handlinger, mønstre og forståelser i norsk sammenheng

Abstract

The chapter outlines some key developments in the phenomenon of migration and mobility in and to Norway. It reviews how various forms of migration and mobility are addressed in contemporary social science discourses and outlines how the volume's chapters add to the body of knowledge in the field by examining aspects of the phenomenon. The chapter advocates for a more holistic approach to the study of contemporary forms of migration and mobility, which may better integrate and cross-fertilize between the many different thematic, theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of migration and mobility, and outlines some key roads towards such a research strategy.
