  • Title: The geography of Bangladeshi migration to Rome.
    Author: Knights M, King R.
    Journal: Int J Popul Geogr; 1998 Dec; 4(4):299-321. PubMed ID: 12294529.
    Abstract:
    "With reference to the Bangladeshi community in Rome, this paper provides some answers to three key geographical questions: what is the migrants' regional pattern of origin in their home country; what are the mechanisms and routes of their migration to Italy; how are they spatially distributed in Rome?... Chain migration links specific origins in Bangladesh with spatial clusters and economic activities in Rome; the key here is the role of Bangladeshi community leaders in Rome who act both as migration sponsors and entrepreneurs."
