This authoritative Handbook provides an interdisciplinary appraisal of the field of return migration, advancing concepts and theories and setting an agenda for new debates.

 
Structured into four parts, the Handbook maps the contemporary field of return migration, examining the effects and politicisation of return migration, before moving on to explore the theme of reintegration and the impact of return migration on development in the migrants? countries of origin. Taking an intersectional approach, expert contributors delve into the economics of return migration, deportation, the psychological wellbeing of migrants, student mobility and second-generation ?return? migration. The Handbook opens up new avenues for research, including new theories and conceptualisations of return migration, and articulates key issues that should be considered, both for research and for policy and practice.

 
This Handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars and advanced students interested in migration and human rights. Its use of empirical examples and case studies will also be beneficial for policy-makers seeking an insight into the current issues in return migration.

?Russell King and Katie Kuschminder have brought together a multidisciplinary team to cover return migration from multiple conceptual, theoretical, empirical and political angles. The volume focuses on the intersection of these approaches to provide a general but also detailed survey of the field. Given the multidisciplinary nature of this collection, this volume will be useful across the field of migration studies as well as within the specific discipline approach of each individual chapter. In particular, scholars and practitioners working in the area of migration and ethics, especially human rights, should find this collection valuable.?
