Abstract

Most studies on post-war migration to Western Europe fail to encompass a demographic approach. The reasons for this are sought in existing, mainly sociological, studies and in the discipline of demography. It is argued that demography is highly relevant to the topic, and could make an important contribution to the debate concerning the temporary or permanent status of migrants in Europe. The case for the inclusion of Britain in such European studies is also put forward.
