Abstract
Australia has one of the largest communities of overseas Italians which has evolved from a number of waves of migration. The contemporary migration relationship between the two countries is complex involving movement in both directions, much of it temporary. This article demonstrates that although there has been little permanent migration from Italy to Australia for several decades there has been a substantial increase in non-permanent movements in both directions. The article examines the characteristics of different types of movers and then addresses the implications of the mobility.
