Migrant Domestic and Care Workers in Europe: New Patterns of Circulation?

In its documentation on migration issues, the European Commission has promoted “circularity” as an efficient way to manage labor mobility. But how does the employment of circular migrants exactly work? And what are its implications for Europe's societal and demographic challenges such as aging? To answer these questions, this special issue focuses on migrants employed in domestic service and home-care work, in EU countries, as special types of circular migrants, with the aim to promote a scholarly debate on the convenience and the special challenges of “circularity” in this sector.
