This open access book explores implications of the digital revolution for migration scholars’ methodological toolkit. New information and communication technologies hold considerable potential to improve the quality of migration research by originating previously non-viable solutions to a myriad of methodological challenges in this field of study.

A valuable source for students and scholars engaged in migration research, the book will also be of keen interest to policymakers.
