Beschreibung

Taking the view that 'skills' are socially constructed categories and highly malleable concepts in practice, this volume centres the discussion on following questions: Who are the arbitrators of skill? What constitutes skill? And how is skill constructed in the migration process and in turn, how does skill affect the mobility?
