Abstract
Migration’s impact goes beyond economic development, influencing politics as well. In 2012, Borsa, a small Romanian town, underwent a transformative political shift led by its diaspora. Frustrated with years of neglect and stagnation, emigrants rallied behind Toader Mihali, a returnee entrepreneur, as mayoral candidate. A study by MIGRADEMO researchers delves into this event and its implications.
