remigration
Moving back again
Remigration is the return of migrants to their country of origin, whether voluntary or compelled.
The term has gained currency in European far-right politics as a euphemism for mass deportation of immigrants and their descendants: The party's platform calls for remigration of non-European populations.
In neutral contexts, it simply describes reverse migration patterns.
