- Abstract
Th e article deals with the contemporary labor migrations from Bosnia and Herzegovina to Slovenia and the other countries of European Union, specifi cally during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic. On the basis of fi eldwork among the participants in these migrations, it seeks to identify the specifi cs of circumstances and situations that arose suddenly with the closure of political borders and the demands of social distancing. In these circumstances, we supposed that labor migrants found themselves to be a particularly vulnerable group of population. Th e case study has denied that this is completely true. On the other hand, labor migrations from Bosnia and Herzegovina to Central, Western and North European and some non-European countries have been a continuous process for the last century and at least migration fl ows must be taken as a fact which directions, volumes and character are greatly infl uenced by labor market regulations in each individual EU member and other states. Periodically, specifi c political and social situations also gain importance. Th e COVID-19 pandemic has exactly such an impact.
