Returns to the East: German internal migrations and local development in East Germany

Abstract: The paper focuses on the phenomenon of internal migrations in Germany after German Reunification. The eastern part of Germany (the former GDR) lost a large share of its population due to internal migration from East to West Germany, resulting in a concomitant process of demographic and economic decline. However, in recent years, some regions such as rural areas and territories near the former inner-German Border are experiencing a re-migration process (from West to East Germany), with an economic renewal. To what extent could the re-migration to East Germany be considered as a potential demographic and economic resource? The aim of this article is to question the sustainability of return movements in the East at three levels: demographic and migratory dynamics, economic transformations, and public policies which support these mutations
