Abstract

Raw statistics are no way to understand a complex phenomenon. If we have learned anything from Russell over the years it is surely that. And Russell is definitely a complex phenomenon. So 70 years? Just a number, an accident of the calendar that we really should not be making any fuss about. Some 45 years in Geography Departments, 43 PhD students supervised to completion, 13 research monographs, 19 edited books, way more than 400 chapters, articles, reviews, reports? We‟re obviously not even getting close to the contours of an academic career that has touched so many, inspired a generation (maybe two) of geographers of migration and influenced the way in which migration is researched and studied across Europe and well beyond.
