Abstract
This part of the book focuses on tensions arising from the combination of changes in migration patterns and in long-term care (LTC) policies for the elderly.1 The interrelation of migration and LTC for the elderly has become an increasingly important issue in recent years as societies are ageing and labour market and family structures are re-structuring, both in countries with extensive and formalized public support for care for the elderly as well as in those with less public and more informal involvement with these people.
