Visions of Europe at the European Union eastern border. Focus on Moldavian migration to Romania

This paper, issued from the final report of the work package 3 (migrants and borders), presents Europe's representations among different types of Moldovian migrants. While some plan to migrate, some are asylum claimers, and other ones already live in Romania. Based on qualitative interviews realised in the framework of the EuroBroadMap project, this paper demonstrates that Romania became an important access point to European Union for migrants but that, most of the time, it is also considered as a first step rather than as a final destination
