Return-migration to the Ancestral and/or Cultural Homeland: Financial, Cultural, Social, and Emotional Perspectives and Processes Undergone by Women Moved to the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia
Return-migration is considered a complex phenomenon (Lui, 2016) with many factors influencing the decision-making process to re-migrate or for second generations to move to the cultural 'homeland', such as, family considerations, older generations, education, work opportunities, reception of returnees and political ideologies. This study used in-depth interviews to examine the perspectives of women located on primarily the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia who re-migrated to Croatia or are second generation Croatians who decided to try life in their ‘cultural homeland'. The study examined how these women function in the transnational social space between Croatia and the country they left where often other family members remain. Consideration is also given to the interviewees’ families' perceptions and support or opposition to their plans to return during the decision-making process and following their move. Their perceptions and the process of their re-entry or entry into the cultural homeland, financially, politically and emotionally were examined with married women being asked to reflect on their perceptions of their experience in comparison with how they viewed their husbands' experiences. Interviewees who returned with children expressed the push and pull factors for being transnational when considering their children's education. This article presents the patterns and trends in the data as well as providing insightful quotations which illustrate the complex nature of return-migration
