The Centre of Migration Research invites you to a Seminar on the new book “Do Employers Matter? Their Impact on Labour Migration,” edited by Prof. Marek Okólski and published by Springer as part of the IMISCOE Research Series. The book, an outcome of the E-factor project at the CMR, offers a new neo-institutionalist framework for studying employers' impact on migration. It also empirically analyses and compares this impact in four European countries: Germany, the UK, Italy and Poland.
During the seminar, taking place on 16 October (Friday), at the Warsaw University Library (Dobra 56/66, room 256, 2nd floor), the authors will present the book, and experts will share their perspectives on the topic. The following guests have confirmed their participation:
Dr Dorothea Pozzato, Goethe University Frankfurt

Prof. Johan Fredrik Rye, University of Oslo
Prof. Dariusz Stola, Polish Academy of Sciences
