International Migration of Romanians – Typologies and Social Development. Case Studies

International migration is a major research topic, both at the world and national level, due to the socio-economic situation of Romania in the last thirty years, more precisely, after the revolution of 1989, although international migration existed before the revolution, but in a much reduced flow. At the international level, migration is caused by some reasons related to a low economic situation of the people who choose to emigrate, or to extreme social situations – wars, totalitarian political regimes, revolutions or civil war, etc. Romania’s integration into the European Union led to numerous migration legislations, to the formulation of rights and obligations of people who migrate within the European Union, being true migratory waves from economically less developed areas, such as former communist countries, to more developed areas from an economic point of view such as Western countries – Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, etc.
