In the picturesque mountain village of Rostushe in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, the gloom of a grey wintery day was reflected in the faces of women talking about how migration had taken the heart and spirit out of their community. Migration is not a new phenomenon in this village, they said. Young men have been going abroad for work since the 1960s, to Turkey, then later to Western Europe and North America.
