About the Author
Hein de Haas is a renowned migration scholar and Professor of Sociology at the University of Amsterdam, where he directs the Amsterdam Centre for Migration and Refugee Studies. With a background in anthropology and development sociology from Leiden University, he has dedicated his career to unraveling the complexities of global population movements, challenging simplistic narratives around migration and borders. His research, grounded in extensive fieldwork across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, emphasizes how migration drives social change, economic development, and cultural exchange. De Haas's work bridges academia and policy, influencing international debates on immigration, integration, and human mobility in an increasingly interconnected world. Through rigorous analysis and accessible prose, he advocates for evidence-based approaches to one of the defining issues of our time.
