摘要：The paper discusses the demographic characteristics of contemporary labour migration from Montenegro in Denmark. In early sixties, slow economic development of the country (former Yugoslavia) triggered the decision of the Yugoslav workers to go abroad. Among these countries, it was definitely Denmark being an important destination. In 1991 there were 1300 Montenegrin emigrants living Denmark, which is 12.9% of the total number of Yugoslavian immigrants (10 039) in this Scandinavian country. The period 1964 - 1969, could be regarded as initial, first stage in the process of emigration from the homeland with its 109 immigrants. In the second phase between 1970 and 1979, number of immigrants was the highest (682). In the third phase (1980 - 1991) it was 509 immigrants, while during the fourth phase (1991-2000), a total of 311 Montenegrin emigrants moved to Denmark.
