Abstract :
In this study we explored the latest migration
trends of Pakistani community and their migration
decisions. For the better understanding, we conducted a
survey and interviewed Pakistanis in different cities of
Italy. The survey was fully voluntary and anonymous.
According to Italian bureau of Statistics ISTAT, there
were 122,884 Pakistanis in Italy till 2016, mostly living
in the northern Italy. This study mainly presents the
distributional analysis of demographic profile of
Pakistanis in Italy. It further aims to understanding
their causes of migration and particularly choosing Italy
as their destination country and impact on their socioeconomic conditions after migration. Lewis (1954),
Ranis & Fei (1961) and Harris & Todaro (1970)’s wage
differentials and demographic differences theories of
migration, Lee (1966)’s Push-pull factors and NELM
theory of migration are best suited with Pakistani
migrants in Italy.
