Some scholars argue that intra-EU labour migration improves the allocation of human capital in Europe and that labour mobility is still too low to constitute a single European labour market. Others insist that free movement of labour and services makes employment more precarious and causes wage dumping. Less attention has been given to the origins, destinations and nature of flows of posted workers, partly because data on posting are scarce. We aim to fill this gap by exploring unique posting data for Belgium. We argue that while the free movement of labour and a single European labour market have been policy goals for decades, it is the free movement of services that is shaping a hybrid single European labour market, since high levels of short-term service mobility are more significant than long-term labour migration. This is as much a phenomenon of intra-EU15 mobility as of post-accession mobility, and is set to remain more prevalent than classic free movement of labour.

The Impact

The article is devoted to the analysis of trends and directions of the development of international labour migration in modern Russia. The focus of the work is trends, transformations and the consequences of attracting and using foreign labour in the national economy in the context of overcoming the consequences of the crisis associated with the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic. The main content of the article, its theoretical and empirical provisions include: (i) study of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the transformation of labour immigration; (ii) identifying and disclosing the socioeconomic impact of international labour mobility before and during the coronavirus pandemic; (iii) consideration of the impact of the pandemic on the situation and migration behavior of labour migrants; (iv) discussion of the problems of regulating labour migration after the end of the active phase of combating the coronavirus epidemic. Based on the use of statistical methods and the results of sample sociological studies, an attempt is made to show what is happening in the country today with international labour mobility, its pros and cons in the development of the domestic economy. The article defines and describes the main features of labour immigration. The impact of the coronavirus epidemic on the processes of interaction between states in the field of international labour exchange is considered. The contradictory effects of the inflow and outflow of foreign workers on the functioning of the national labour market are analyzed. Estimates are given to the consequences of the epidemic's impact on the employment of migrants and their redistribution into the shadow economy. The features of the migration behavior of foreign workers are revealed. It is shown that in their migration intentions there is a fairly large number of those who are not going to leave and do not think to leave the country in the near future. Special attention is paid to the problems of regulation of external labour migration. Answers are given to fundamental questions about how the state the migration policy can and should change in the field of attracting and using foreign labour during the post-pandemic recovery of the domestic economy.

Abstract Recently, there has been some exploration of labour mobility policies in the context of refugees as a way of local country integration that can help with refugee self-reliance, with some examples from Africa and Latin America. Building on these examples, this paper explores the opportunities the Global Compact for Refugees presents in the countries making up the Gulf Cooperation Council, specifically the United Arab Emirates (UAE), as related to expanding access to third-country solutions, refugee self-reliance, and responsibility-sharing. Many of the countries making up the Gulf Cooperation Council rely in large part on expatriate labour and are indeed made up of majority non-citizens. Many Syrians who have been able to obtain work visas have preferred to go to the UAE rather than seek refuge in other neighbouring countries. Some positive initiatives, such as a 2018 Amnesty Law in the UAE, which created a specific category of residency permits for those from countries suffering war and natural disasters, have ensured that de facto refugees are protected against refoulement in the event that they lose their residency. However, in order for labour migration in this context to work, there need to be better guarantees and minimum protections, such as schooling for children and healthcare.

Gender Boundaries

In post-Socialist countries, cross-border labour migration has become a common individual and family livelihood strategy. The paper is based on the analysis of semi-structured interviews conducted with two ethnic Hungarian women whose lives have been significantly reshaped by cross-border migration. Focusing on the interplay of gender and cross-border migration, our aim is to reveal how gender roles and boundaries are reinforced and repositioned by labour migration in the post-socialist context where both the socialist dual-earner model and conventional ideas of family and gender roles simultaneously prevail. We found that cross-border migration challenged these women to pursue diverse strategies to balance their roles of breadwinner, wife, and mother responsible for reproductive work. Nevertheless, the boundaries between female and male work or status were neither discursively nor in practice transgressed. Thus, the effect of cross-border migration on altering gender boundaries in post-socialist peripheries is limited.
