Will Asylum Seekers Stay in the Netherlands?

Arjen Leerkes, Professor of Migration, Securitization and Social Cohesion

We may view the Netherlands as the final destination for asylum seekers who receive a residence permit. But is that really the case? Arjen Leerkes talks about analyses he made of the migration behaviour of all refugees who came to the Netherlands in the second half of the 1990s. He also draws lessons from this for dealing with recent refugee flows to Europe.
