%T Potential East-West Migration %A Hintermann, Christiane %A Fassmann, Heinz %J Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review %N 1 %P 59-72 %V 6 %D 1998 %K Eastern Europe %= 2009-03-17T16:41:00Z %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-54260 %X Examines the migration potential in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, & Slovakia, using 1996 survey data from 4,392 persons. Results indicate that all scenarios that predict an imminent exodus of people from East & Central Europe are exaggerating the real dimension of East-West migration. The migration potential in the four countries investigated here is between 700,000 & (potentially) 4 million persons, higher than the numbers foreseen by the law for annual immigration to Austria & the Federal Republic of Germany & higher than the numbers thought politically acceptable. Principal information concealing the demographic & social structure of the people who are willing to leave their country & planning a stay in Western Europe is given. %C MISC %G en %9 journal article %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
