Skilled German Migrants and Their Motives for Migration Within Europe

Abstract German migration within Europe has so far received little attention from researchers. This is especially true of migrants with intermediate qualifications (vocational training, technical school, master craftsman’s certificate). The present contribution is devoted to this phenomenon and examines the reasons why people belonging to this particular group migrate. To do this we pick up on central theoretical arguments in migration research, on the basis of which we examine the relevance of economic and social factors for Germans who migrate within Europe. It emerges that, empirically, for Germans with intermediate qualifications, economic factors are crucial. In particular, unemployment, low or falling wages, as well as poor working conditions in Germany constitute important push factors, while job offers, higher wages and better working conditions in the destination countries constitute the main pull factors. In comparison, social networks are less important factors in migration, since only in a few cases did the interviewees have solid contacts abroad. The empirical results of the study are based on the analysis of available population statistics and 40 problem-centred, biographical interviews carried out between October 2006 and April 2007 in various regions of Germany (Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg, Bremen, Lower Saxony, Berlin).Jusqu’à maintenant, peu de chercheurs se sont penchés sur la migration des Allemands à l’intérieur de l’Europe. Notamment, les migrants avec des titres de compétences intermédiaires (formation professionnelle, école technique, certificat de maître d’œuvre) ne sont guère pris en considération. Cet article se consacre à ce phénomène et traite des raisons pour lesquelles des personnes qui font partie de ce groupe migrent. Pour ce faire, nous nous appuyons sur les principaux arguments théoriques de la recherche en migration et étudions l’importance des facteurs économiques et sociaux pour les Allemands qui migrent en Europe. Il apparait que, empiriquement, les facteurs économiques sont décisifs pour les Allemands ayant des titres de compétences intermédiaires. Plus précisément, le chômage, les salaires modiques ou en baisse et les mauvaises conditions de travail en Allemagne constituent des facteurs qui incitent au départ, alors que les offres d’emploi, les salaires élevés et les meilleures conditions de travail dans les pays de destination constituent les principaux facteurs qui attirent les migrants. Par contre, les réseaux sociaux se sont avérés être des facteurs moins importants, très peu des personnes interviewées ayant eu des contacts solides à l’étranger. Les résultats empiriques de cette recherche sont basés sur l’analyse de statistiques portant sur la population et sur 40 entrevues biographiques, qui ont été menées entre octobre 2006 et avril 2007 dans diverses régions d’Allemagne (Schleswig-Holstein, Hambourg, Brême, Basse-Saxe, Berlin).
