Abstract

Based on personal experience, this paper shows how shifting and precarious conditions in the labour market impact early career researchers. In particular, it focuses on how visa regimes, citizenship and class difference, and access to “safety nets”, together with structural conditions, impact academic opportunities and daily life differently in Western and Eastern Europe, and how they impose mobility.
