Summary/Abstract: The recent international economic and financial crisis has a number of ramifications that reflect, inter alia, adjustments in international migration flows. Immigration is amongst the most crucial and vibrant phenomena in the world, particularly in the European area, which is currently under severe migration pressure, on the one side, due to geopolitical reshuffling at international scale, and on the other, because the whole European framework appears to be a "land of opportunity" for population groups of countries that have lived through a long period of time. The short-term impact of recessions on foreign migration are characterized by a reduction in the flow of migrants into crisis-hit developed countries, a rise in the flow of migrants, and the introduction of government policies that attract unemployed immigrants to resettlement. Contemporary demographic movements, furthermore, consider taking on increasingly complicated dimensions, such as inland, circular and short or medium-sized transnational movements, which also render it extremely difficult to adhere to the classic typology of (permanent or prolonged) migration from one country (origin) to another (establishment). This study tries to include the available data as far as the economic consequences of migration in EU countries and especially Greece.
