Advancing the embedding framework: Using longitudinal methods to revisit French highly skilled migrants in the context of Brexit
There has been exponential growth in research about the impact of Brexit on the plans and projects of EU migrants in the UK. Much research focuses on highly visible migrants, such as the Poles. By focusing on French highly skilled migrants in London, our paper offers the perspectives of those who, prior to the referendum, were relatively invisible and largely absent from anti-immigration discourses. In so doing, we consider how the shock of Brexi…

Embedding in Motion: Analysing Relational, Spatial and Temporal Dynamics among Highly Skilled Migrants
I find it here pretty difficult to make friends, true friends... it is pretty difficult to build up a relationship, a true relationship. There are a few exceptions to that. But I think a lot of people are, just like, stand on the surface, but you can’t rely on these people... most of my closest friends would be like in France or in Luxembourg. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywor…
Gotta Go Visit Family’: Reconsidering the Relationship Between Tourism and Transnationalism
A comparative examination of two groups of highly skilled Global North migrants – US citizens (Americans) in London, Berlin, and Paris and French citizens in London – this paper explores the nature of these migrants' visits home, situating these visits between tourism and transnationalism. We question whether there has been a tendency to conceptualise visits home by migrants from the Global North as tourism and those from the Global South as tran…
The distance between us: A Comparative Examination of the Technical, Spatial and Temporal Dimensions of the Transnational Social Relationships of Highly Skilled Migrants
In this article, through comparing two highly skilled migrant groups in London, we explore how new types of information and communication technologies (ICTs) shape the form and content of transnational practices through time and space. In so doing, we aim to contribute to several debates in the field of migration studies. First, our findings highlight enduring practical constraints emanating from everyday routines and responsibilities, thus quest…
French connections: The networking strategies of French highly skilled migrants in London
Although the migration studies literature often takes social networks for granted, these social ties are not spontaneous but require effort and nurturing. There has been insufficient research on the actual process of networking, especially among highly skilled migrants. Our understanding of why and how migrants form networks with particular characteristics is still poor. In this article, we argue that it is necessary to consider both the structur…
Trading Places: French Highly Skilled Migrants Negotiating Mobility and Emplacement In London
This paper investigates the migratory strategies of highly skilled French migrants in London's business and financial sectors. Drawing on qualitative data with 37 participants from this under-researched group, we contribute to the growing interest in micro-level analysis of the motivations, experiences and trajectories of highly skilled migrants. Unlike other studies which either focus on Intra-Company Transfers (ICTs) or exclude them entirely, w…
Talking Ties: Reflecting on Network Visualisation and Qualitative Interviewing
This paper uses a reflexive approach to consider the opportunities and challenges of using a visualisation tool in qualitative research on social networks. Although widely used to map social networks over many decades, particularly in health studies and psychology, network visualisation tools are less common in qualitative sociological research. While recent trends in Social Network Analysis (SNA) have tended to concentrate within the quantitativ…
Wives Are the Route to Social Life: An Analysis of Family Life and Networking amongst Highly Skilled Migrants in London
There is developing interest in the role of social networks in migratory experiences of highly skilled migrants. While there is some research on the networking of single economic actors, there is less focus on the social ties associated with family life and parenting among highly skilled migrants. The limited research that has been undertaken, mainly in the USA, points to the role of 'trailing wives' in building local social relationships. This a…
Doing the Business: Variegation, Opportunity and Intercultural Experience among Intra‐ EU Highly‐Skilled Migrants
Focusing on the working experiences of the French highly skilled in London's financial and business sectors, this paper examines the impact of ongoing pan‐European variegation on intra‐EU highly skilled migration in two key respects: firstly, in its role as a driver for mobility, through its association with divergent opportunity structures across different nations and regions; and secondly, as a potential obstacle to the successful realization o…
