In this chapter, we put the analytical spotlight on the voices of BiH refugees, exploring the mutual relationship between BiH refugee experiences: their ‘encounters’ with both institutions and individuals, integration and immigration policies, practices of organizing, economic concerns, and structural labor market conditions. We also emphasize how BiH refugees exercised agency in the processes of reaching individual goals of integration and investigate the processes by which they overcame obstacles and developed their own strategies for pursuing educational and professional goals. The principle finding in this chapter is that labor market establishment rarely depends on one single process. Rather, there are mutual relations between processes. These have an impact, either directly or indirectly, on the ability of migrants to become established in the labor market. |
