Między starym a nowym krajem czyli o życiu na walizkach na przełomie XX i XXI wieku

Abstract

The article begins with the revision of various forms and types of emigration. Further, the demographic situation in the united Europe is outlined, as a background for the presentation of human migration. The last part of the article is a discussion of migration out of Poland; it is shown how over many years the targets (countries and continents) for Polish emigration have changed, and how the social-demographic profile of the emigrant has altered.
