“The India Migration Report, an annual series, under the expert stewardship of Professor Rajan, has just witnessed the publication of its 14th edition. Researchers and policy-makers on all aspects of Indian migration eagerly await its appearance each year, as it commentates upon, and analyses, highly contemporary, cutting-edge issues and debates. 2023 is no exception, with the focus this time upon Indian student migration. Focussing largely upon international student migration, all aspects of this phenomenon are covered – from the role of families and agents in the migration process to the health and financial impacts of student migration. The geographical reach of the volume is impressive, with studies on Indian student migration to Canada, the United States and Eastern and Western Europe. The impact of COVID-19 and its aftermath is also analysed. As we have come to expect with the IMR, the research upon which the chapters are based is highly rigorous and up-to-date, the analysis presented is crisp and insightful and the conclusions and recommendations presented will have direct social, political and policy impact. It should be essential reading for scholars, practitioners and policy-makers concerned with migration in India and beyond.” — Professor Steve Taylor, Centre for Global Development, Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences, Northumbria University, United Kingdom “The annual India migration reports edited by Professor Rajan have made a significant contribution of our knowledge about the complex changing dynamics of Indian international migration. Now moving into the 14th edition, the collection is a testament to the intellectual labour of Professor Rajan, and his ability to attract a wide range of early career to senior scholars in the field of migration studies. The collections are organized by specific themes, and the contributions are always novel, timely and provide unique insights into emerging issues in student migration. The effort taken to collate these collections on a regular basis has contributed immensely to researchers’ awareness of changes taking place in Indian migration dynamics.” — Professor Margaret Walton-Roberts, Balsillie School of International Affairs, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada. “For more than a decade the India Migration Reports have served as an outstanding source of information and inspiration for researchers and policy makers on various facets of migration. With contributions from well-established and leading academics as well as emerging scholars, IMR 2023 is no exception and is an excellent addition to this long-standing series. Among other issues, the volume deals with an exhaustive set of concerns faced by Indian students accessing international education. The volume is topical, stimulating and deals with several under researched areas.” — Professor Arjun Bedi, Deputy Rector for Research, International Institute of Social Studies, The Netherlands
