      Local Abstract: [PIP] The author investigates social and historic reasons for the emigration of Tuscans to Western Australia. "The particularity of the seasonal migration [from Lucca, Italy], first towards other Italian regional areas and later abroad and overseas, aimed at a strategy of a possibly quick economic individual dividend, which could warrant a financially sound return home. We have suggested reasons for the objective obstacles which they might have faced in their aim to return to Lucca and how this migration flow started following a different pattern since the late 1950s."
