Abstract

One of the most important effects of the enlargement of the European Union in 2004 was an increase of migration flows from new member states to old ones: post-accession migration. This study investigates the migration process which took place after 2004 from the moment of leaving Poland until the time when migrants start to lead an own life in The Hague. The main research question of this study is formulated as follows: „To what extent the migration process of Polish migrants to The Hague is influenced by migration networks formed before and after their migration, and the personal life goals they aim to fulfil in The Hague?‟
