Sažetak
In the last two decades, many have been emigrating from Venezuela due to the political and economic crisis in the country. As many of the immigrants have European origins which provides them with the possibility of obtaining a new and/or dual citizenship, one of the migration routes leads to the countries of the European Union. Based on qualitative research and the life stories of immigrants from Venezuela to the Republic of Croatia and the European Union, this work aims to illustrate the migrants’ intersections between culture, informality, (im)mobilities, transnationalism and integration across the internal and external European borders. By studying the push and pull factors of migration and experiences of life in a new environment, it aims to present the interconnectedness of multiple forms of migration among both families and individuals, cultural and social integration, employment, business practices, care and education and transnationalism. Migrants compare between the possibility of obtaining citizenship and using existing cultural capital, e.g. emigrating to Spain with a Croatian passport due to lack of proficiency in the Croatian language, or descendants of the German national minority from Croatia who have a knowledge of German emigrating to German-speaking countries with a Croatian passport etc.
