"This
paper reviews the methods of analysis of migration histories. We
assume that migrations are the observable outcomes of a dynamic
process. The characteristics and the covariates of the process can be
estimated from the migration history data. The maximum likelihood
methods provide the researchers with a modeling tool that can handle
longitudinal data. The properties of the data from the ESCAP National
Migration Surveys are of special concern to this paper. The potential
problems that may arise during the analysis of the ESCAP survey data
are discussed in detail."

Migration trends in the north of Mexico are
analyzed. Data are from a survey of 1,326 Mexican migrants in three
U.S. cities and a survey of 2,320 individuals in the frontier zones of
Mexico, both of which were carried out in 1982. Both international and
internal migration are considered. The focus is on the relationship
between migration and inequalities in income

"This paper
presents the results of an empirical test of a multilevel model of
migration behavior in Ilocos Norte, the Philippines. It distinguishes
families with any form of migration from those who have not adopted a
form of migration, and shows how migration behavior is jointly
determined by both family economic concerns and community social and
economic structure." Data are for a sample of 4,000 individuals
included in the Philippine Migration Survey and reinterviewed in
1982.

Economic Development and Cultural Change, Vol. 34, No. 2, Jan 1986.
245-62 pp. Chicago, Illinois. In Eng.
The authors analyze aspects
of Palestinian demographic change in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip
during the years 1922-1982. "The research is initiated in Section II
with a brief historical overview of demographic change in the
territories, including comparison of fertility, natality, and mortality
during periods of Jordanian and Israeli administration. Section III
focuses on composition, destination, and local demographic impacts of
Palestinian migration. In Section IV, econometric evaluation of
migratory determinants is undertaken." Data are from official
Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Israeli, and Palestinian sources and from other
published literature.
The significance of migration in explaining
demographic trends in the region is noted. Migratory movements in the
wake of the 1948 and 1967 wars are shown to be similar in magnitude to
those observed during periods of relative political stability. The
authors also suggest that "consumption patterns, housing development,
and indices of employment opportunity in local and foreign labor
markets are highly significant in an explanation of Palestinian
emigration over the post-1967 period." Population growth forecasts and
policy implications are briefly considered.

"Data from the
1971 Census records included in the OPCS Longitudinal Study were used
to examine the relationship between geographic mobility and marriage
termination and remarriage [in England and Wales]. Remarried women had
high rates of mobility and there seemed to be a clear 'excess' of moves
made around the time of remarriage, shortly after the end of the first
marriage. There was a suggestion too of a peak in movements following
widowhood but no indication of excess movement at the time of de jure
divorce."
In addition, "data from linked 1971-81 Census information
showed that changes of marital status were strongly associated with
changes of tenure. Other characteristics of divorced, widowed and
remarried women were also examined to see how they might affect their
patterns of geographic movement."

"Information about the
true skill level of individual workers may not flow freely across labor
markets or between firms, and though available to the workers
themselves may not be equally available to some employers.
Consequently, the level and composition of labor mobility is affected.
In this paper [the authors] derive some results concerning the impact
of moving costs in conjunction with informational asymmetry upon the
level of labor mobility, the skill level of those who move and the
effect upon both these variables of costly

Eng.
The purpose of this book, which consists of several articles
by different authors, is to "provide an analytical overview of the
nexus among the economic, social, cultural, and political aspects of
migration and national development in Subsaharan Africa. Particular
attention is devoted to the role of voluntary labor or employment
migration (for the purpose of wage employment) since job-seeking is a
dominant reason for migration. Although less prevalent, commercial
migration (for the purpose of business opportunity) is also discussed
as a form of voluntary movement."
An introduction to the
relationship between national development and migration and a
historical overview of labor migration in the subcontinent since the
colonial period are first presented. Particular aspects of African
migration are then discussed, including Yoruban migration in West
Africa, restraints on emigration from rural villages in Mali,
socioeconomic factors involved in the migration of Zambian women to
Lusaka, health care among migrant workers in Lesotho, the influence of
Senegal's educational system on the rural exodus, and the implications
for economic development of the regional distribution of Kenya's
population. Similarities among the specific subjects are highlighted
in the final chapter.

The relative influence of factors that determine the
expectations of individuals concerning migration over the course of
their lives is examined using data collected in Chicago, Illinois, in
1982. "Factors representing personal characteristics, ties to origin,
and ties to potential destinations were used to discriminate between
expected migrants and nonmigrants in three population subgroups
representing different stages of life. These subgroups included a
general adult population, a preretirement population, and an elderly
population."
The findings show "that personal characteristics are
most influential among preretirement persons, ties to origin are most
influential among the general and elderly populations, and ties to
potential destinations are influential among all population
subgroups."

organizations.
The papers are organized under the following general
headings: the impact of development on migration; the impact of
emigration on development, which includes case studies on the Eastern
Caribbean, Jamaica, and Hispaniola; the impact on development of
different types of migration, including return migration, temporary
worker programs in Florida, illegal migration to the United States, and
migration to the Caribbean; Caribbean policies on migration and

from one Arab country to another, which is likely to be temporary, and
movement to industrialized countries, which is likely to be permanent.
The author discusses recent international statements concerning an Arab
brain drain, government policies involving inducements to stay or
restrictions on leaving, conditions in Gulf countries that induce Arabs
to return from industrial countries, political instability and
socioeconomic conditions encouraging emigration, and the relative
importance of professionals and technicians in the Arab labor
market.

suggestions for procedures that might be followed for such surveys are
also presented. A brief examination of the kinds of migration
information currently collected through the censuses of these Western

Trends in Palestinian
migration since 1948 are discussed. The author notes that movement was
initially to Arab countries that bordered Palestine and subsequently to
the oil- producing Gulf countries. Motivated by the dual purposes of
retaining Palestinian identity through the establishment of Palestinian
communities and securing advantageous employment, Palestinians
relocated in large groups to places of employment. Data from official
government publications, the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and
other published sources are used to show the growth and distribution of
the Palestinian population to the present time.
In concluding, the
author considers ways in which the socioeconomic success of Palestinian
migration affects the Palestinian national cause, namely, return to the
Palestinian homeland.

In this study of migrant workers in the oil-producing
countries of Western Asia, consideration is given to factors affecting
the demand for foreign labor, the development of new migration streams,
and the broad range of jobs for which foreign labor is necessary.
Special attention is given to the differentiation of migrant workers by
nationality into separate areas of employment. Rejecting the results
of recent research that focuses on an equilibrium between labor supply
and demand, the authors instead identify four mechanisms for labor
allocation in the Gulf countries that, taken together, may be used to
explain the distribution of workers by nationality. Appendixes show the
hierarchy by nationality in certain sectors of the Saudi Arabian
economy.

The author critically examines arguments
concerning the compensation principle of international migration and
focuses the discussion primarily on explanations presented by S.
Bhagwati and Herbert Grubel. The concept of compensation, which is
based on an interpretation of international migration according to the
pure theory of trade, postulates that countries of origin sustain a
loss and countries of destination, a gain in the international movement
of highly skilled and professional workers. The author first finds
fault with specific assumptions underlying the compensation principle
and then concludes that "the broad picture that emerges is one which
makes one feel that the brain drain issue may at least be
exaggerated."

International
migration to the Arab regions of North Africa and Western Asia during
the period 1975- 1980 is studied, with particular attention given to
intra-regional migration. Data are from a 1980 International Labour
Office study, previously published work of the authors, and central
bank publications from the countries concerned. Specific consideration
is given to the cases of Jordan and Yemen.
Migration patterns noted
between 1975 and 1980 include the development of secondary labor
markets, the redirection of migration streams away from Europe, the
persistent predominance of Indians and Pakistanis among the migrants,
the growing number of migrants from East and Southeast Asia, the
stabilization of the proportion of Arab migrants, and settling, which
implies population redistribution in the Arab countries. The authors
note that as wealth has increased among migrants, money is no longer
the sole motivator of migration. Leisure, security of income,
education, and health services are now significant determinants as
well.

Trends in current and
potential migration of North African workers to the Persian Gulf
countries of Bahrain, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia are discussed. Aspects
considered include the implications for North African workers of recent
restrictions on immigration in European countries, kinds of employment
opportunities available in the Gulf countries, the suitability of North
African workers for these jobs, immigration policies in the Gulf
countries, and the probability of North African workers migrating
directly from North Africa or secondarily from Europe.
It is
concluded that employment opportunities for skilled workers exist in
the Gulf countries; however, the reluctance of most Gulf countries to
increase their permanent immigrant populations is a significant
obstacle to increased migration of North African workers to these
countries. Migration statistics, presented in tabular form, and
representative legislation concerning the employment of aliens in Gulf
countries are contained in two appendixes.

In the first section of this paper, international

suggested that migration patterns have changed since 1950, so that
movement from underdeveloped countries to industrialized or
oil-producing countries now predominates. Attention is given to the
ecological, social, political, economic, and demographic factors
influencing migration; economic factors are shown to exert the
strongest influence. In the second section of the paper, recent
significant migration streams throughout the world are identified. In
the final section, four possible patterns of future world development
are described, and the implications for international migration are
discussed.

attempts to cover similar topics, including the history of migration,
motives for leaving, reasons for choosing the United States as a
destination, initial impressions and subsequent satisfaction with life
in the United States, and the possibility of return migration.

This collection of essays is concerned with contemporary
immigration to the United States from areas other than Europe. The 10
papers deal with Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese,
Mexican-American, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Canadian, black, Arab, and
Australian immigration. Each essay attempts to cover the same topics,
including the history of migration, motives for leaving, reasons for
choosing the United States as a destination, initial impressions and
subsequent satisfaction with life in the United States, and the
possibility of return migration.

Population trends in the Middle East and North
Africa between 1950 and 1980 are examined, with particular emphasis on
the effects of international migration. Data are from U.N.
publications and the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Patterns of population
growth and net migration rates are first presented for both rich and
poor countries. The author then focuses on several of the oil-rich
countries, comparing native and nonnative populations by age, sex,
fertility, and labor force participation. It is concluded that if
rapid development continues in these oil-rich countries, the majority
of their populations will be nonnative before 1990. Some implications
of this finding are also discussed.

"This paper develops a
simple two- country model of international migration. By
distinguishing individuals in terms of their ability and age, the model
enables us to examine not only the equilibrium flow of migrants and the
pattern of factor rewards in the two economies, but also the factors
which determine the skill and age profile of those who migrate. In
addition, the effects of both qualitative and quantitative restrictions
on immigration are analysed within a general-equilibrium framework.
The role of an emigration tax and how it interacts with the immigration
policy of the labor-importing country is also
considered."

The problems associated with emigration and return
migration in Greece since 1890 are explored. The basic concepts and
institutional framework in which this migration has occurred are first
introduced. Variations in migration trends over time are then
described. Next, characteristics of migrants are considered, as well
as place of origin and destination. A chapter is included on migration
theory. Political, macroeconomic, and macro-sociological factors
affecting migration are also discussed, with particular reference to
the differences between the agricultural and nonagricultural
sectors.
The next part of the book deals with return migration.
Consideration is given to factors in receiving countries that have
increased pressures for migrants to return to their country of origin,
and to factors in Greece that have encouraged such movements. The
effects of these migrations on employment, production, foreign exchange
flows, skills and training, and population structure are emphasized.
The effects of migration and return on the individuals concerned are
also considered. The problems of second generation migrants are
examined, and policy issues are reviewed.

discussed separately within each section. The five categories
considered are demographic, geographic, economic, social, and

around one of these factors, but with reference to the others, is most
likely to yield the best results. He also emphasizes that constant
attention to changing patterns and issues is needed for such work to

This paper assesses
the usefulness of selected census data in estimating international
migration. Consideration is given to the problems to be expected when
using data on age and sex, birthplace, nationality, residence a
specified number of years ago, duration of residence, and residence of
relatives. The author illustrates some of these problems by using data
from the Kuwaiti censuses of 1965 and 1970 to develop net international
migration estimates for Kuwait. Some advantages of using data from two
censuses are also demonstrated. The author concludes that census data
can be used to give reasonable estimates of immigration but not of
emigration.

statistics are presented concerning the structure of the population by
native or nonative status, nationality, and sex. The data show that
since 1965 foreigners have constituted a majority of the country's
population. Figures are also included concerning the distribution of
the native and nonnative labor force among the various types of
economic activity. The economic, social, and political consequences
for Kuwait of this recent immigration are then
considered.

The migration of workers from labor-rich to
capital-rich countries, with particular reference to Arab countries, is
considered from two points of view. The assumption is first made that
present patterns of migration will continue. Systems of compensation,
taxation, and remittances that might increase the benefits to the
sending countries are also discussed. Available alternatives to
migration are then considered, in the event that migration should stop.
Most important among these alternatives are the development of
labor-intensive production systems for labor-rich countries, the
replacement of labor with capital, and the foreign investment of
capital for capital-rich countries.

distribution, and nationality of migrants; the temporary and
exploitative nature of migration; the dual allegiance of migrants;
natives' resentment of migrants; migrant domination of some sectors of
the labor market; the shortage of skilled workers in sending countries;
the inequality of treatment for migrants and natives; inflation;
excessive consumption of luxury items; and "cultural schizophrenia"
produced by overly rapid change.

The history of inter-Arab relations since the
1950s is summarized, and the year 1973 is highlighted as the start of
substantial intra-regional migration. The author contends that
political relations between Arab countries since 1973 and the pattern
of Arab migration during this period have been characterized by both
pragmatism and turmoil. On the one hand, migration has served the
economic interests of both sending and receiving countries.
On the
other hand, the xenophobia of many Arab populations, the disruption of
relations between Egypt and the rest of the Arab world after the Camp
David accords, the revolution in Iran, and the Iran- Iraq war have
sustained inter-Arab conflict and, in turn, depressed intra-regional
migration. As illustrations, the cases of Kuwait and Egypt are
examined in detail.

The history of North African emigration from World War I through 1980
is reviewed. Among the factors affecting emigration that are
considered are the colonial relationship between France and the North
African countries; the shortages of workers in France following both
world wars; the willingness of North African workers to do jobs
considered undesirable by Europeans; and concern in France over the
proportion of immigrants, especially Arabs, in the French population.
Data are from Algerian and French government records and from other
published reports.

Subsequent chapters discuss socioeconomic aspects of the
immigrants' life in California and the level of assimilation achieved;
the effects of the influx of immigrants on job availability and wages;
the impact of immigration on public revenues and expenditures and on

sources for examining migration status and related household and family
structures. By asking for the self-identification of ethnic origin, in
this case Spanish/Hispanic origin, a census is able to trace not only
first generation migrants by different durations of residence, but also
later generations. The flexibility afforded by microdata tape files
enables [the authors] to further examine multilevel effects of
migration and family patterns. In this present example, the widespread
nature of family instability among persons of Puerto Rican origin in
the New York/New Jersey area has been noted."

The purpose of this study is to consider the

oil-producing Arab countries. The author notes that the increasing
dependency of oil- producing countries on migrant labor is causing
concern, particularly when the workers are non-Arabs. The importance
of limiting foreign labor is stressed, and some measures aimed at
increasing the native labor force are described. The author also
suggests that it would be desirable to encourage migrants from Arab
countries in situations where foreign labor remains a
necessity.

This is a
collection of papers by different authors concerning migrants from
North Africa currently residing in France. The focus of the papers is
on the situation since 1974 and on the extent to which this migration
is in a state of change from temporary to permanent. The papers are
grouped in four parts. The first part contains four papers dealing
with the history of this migratory movement. The second part is
concerned with the growth of a modern labor force in North Africa and
its relationship to the French economy. The primary geographical focus
is on Algeria, although consideration is also given to questions
concerning internal migration, international migration, and social
change in Morocco and Tunisia.
The third part concerns the process
of development of permanently resident migrant communities in France,
problems of assimilation, and the prospects of return migration. A
final section contains four papers in which the authors attempt to
present syntheses of the current situation.

The intra-regional migration
of Arab workers in North Africa and Western Asia is studied from the
points of view of both the sending and receiving countries. Factors
differentiating this migration from migration streams elsewhere are
discussed, and the economic effects are considered. For the receiving
countries, the author emphasizes that in order to have continued
economic growth those countries must rely on immigration to compensate
for shortages of certain kinds of labor in their native populations.
For sending countries, the effects noted are in the areas of
employment, salary transfers, and income
distribution.

This study of the socioeconomic characteristics of
international migrants focuses on six oil-producing Gulf countries:
the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, and Saudi
Arabia. Data are from censuses of these countries and concern the
years 1960-1980, with particular attention to the 1975 censuses of
Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. Migrants are
differentiated as Arab, Asian, or Western. Among the topics considered
with respect to the migrant populations are level of migration into the
country of residence, age and sex structure, duration of residence and
determining factors, educational status, levels and rates of
employment, distribution by occupation, and distribution by economic
sector.

[Les migrations internationales en Europe.] Mondes en Developpement,
Vol. 11, No. 43- 44, 1983. 349-68 pp. Brussels, Belgium. In Fre.
Recent international migration trends to and within Europe are
analyzed. It is noted that the foreign population of Europe has been
growing in size since 1979, despite employment problems and the
development of policies designed to reduce immigration and encourage
migrants to return home. Reasons for this apparent contradiction are
examined. The author concludes that the employment of foreign workers
facilitates the regulation of long-term and short-term economic cycles
as well as the restructuring of certain sectors of the
economy.

This book is a study of emigration from Wurttemberg, in
southwest Germany, during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The
focus is on emigration to North America and to other European
countries. The book is divided into two parts. The first deals with
emigration and emigration policy during the eighteenth century and the
second with mass emigration between 1815 and 1870. Topics covered
include the volume of migration and trends over time; characteristics
of migrants; reasons for migration, including poverty in the area of
origin and efforts to attract migrants to the area of destination; and
policy aspects.

A. Migration and education subsidies by governments: a
game-theoretic analysis. Journal of Public Economics, Vol. 26, No.
2, Mar 1985. 249-62 pp. Amsterdam, Netherlands. In Eng.
This study
is concerned with the implications of the brain drain. "The brain
drain alters both the endowments of educated labor and the cost of
increasing the endowment of such labor in both countries of immigration
and emigration." It thus affects government subsidies for education
both directly and indirectly. "This has implications for the burden of
education expenditures and net supplies of educated labor in a world
with a brain drain. The [author] shows the need for inclusion of a
mechanism for transfers between the involved governments if a
compensation scheme is to yield Pareto efficient
migration."

This paper focuses on the migration of laborers
from oil-importing countries in Western Asia to oil-exporting countries
in the same region. Economic conditions that affect migration are
examined for both the sending and receiving countries. Tables based on
U.N. data are included to show comparative population distributions by
age and sex. The socioeconomic implications of emigration for the
sending countries are also discussed. Important among these are the
resulting shortage of educated and skilled laborers, repatriated
remittances, and the demographic consequences of the disproportionate
emigration of young males.

In this attempt to assess the significance
for the sending countries of emigration from the Arab world of highly
skilled and educated workers, the author reviews the published work on
the subject. Such determinants of migration as income, professional
support, professional prestige, and social conditions are discussed.
The consequences of emigration of professionals are then considered,
with particular attention given to the topics of manpower loss,
repatriated earnings, and repatriated skills. The author concludes
that there are no specific or quantifiable negative effects in Arab
countries that can be directly attributed to the Arab brain
drain.

This study is
concerned with the effect of life cycle changes on migration in
Indonesia. "The main purposes of this study were: (1) to examine the
extent to which the major life cycle events are accompanied by changes
in place of residence, (2) to analyze the probability of migration in
different life cycle stages, and (3) to investigate how the probability
of migration in a specific life cycle stage varies by socioeconomic and
demographic characteristics of the individuals." Data concern 1,587
women aged 14 to 49 and 888 males included in the Asian Marriage Survey
carried out in Semarang in 1979.
Among the factors affecting
migration that are considered are schooling, employment, marriage, and
marriage dissolution.

This study is concerned with the role that inter-industry mobility
plays in the decision to migrate in Canada, and also with the joint
impact on earnings of inter-industry and interregional migration,
corrected for selectivity bias. The data, for the period 1970-1971,
are from a one percent random sample of a micro data base established
by the Unemployment Insurance Commission. "Contrary to the commonly
held belief that a migrant's decision to change his location is
independent of his decision to change his industry of employment, this
paper provides evidence that these movements are in fact
interrelated."

and sex distribution, fertility, mortality, and mobility of the migrant
population.
The findings show that "age reporting problems detected
are common to those estimated [using] censuses as well as other
surveys; this rural-rural migration is highly selective of males;
migrants have lower fertility and mortality than non-migrants in the
districts of out-migration; and a substantial proportion of migrants
are temporary...."

distribution in the country; and (3) to make suggestions regarding the
implications for development policy."
By fitting 1977 data to a
Markov chain, movements in population on the regional and district
levels for 1988 and 1999 are projected. Results show a general trend
toward a more even distribution of population throughout the country.
Implications for the development of the commercial-estate sector in

The recent increase in marital migration in
China among the rural population of the Beijing suburbs is examined,
with a focus on the impact of uneven economic developments in villages
and of different rates of population growth and distribution,
fertility, and sex ratios. Findings are based on a survey of 1981
marriage patterns in a number of Beijing suburban communes. It is
found that slightly over 50 percent of the women married within their
communes, less than 20 percent married men from other suburban
communes, and the remainder married outside the communes. The author
observes that more women than men have migrated into the Beijing area
and that marriage has been a major determinant of this
movement.

and examples ranging from the time of Abraham to the twentieth century
are included. The six types are described as follows: voluntary
migration on account of beliefs; intruders driven out by natives, even
if after a long period of settlement; resettlement of subjects within
their territory at the command of their rulers; resettlement of
subjects outside of their native territory, also to serve the needs of
the ruler; deportation of natives when lands are invaded; and
deportation of natives from their lands in colonial territories to make
land available for colonists.

The author contends that migration can
have positive effects for the sending country under the following
circumstances: the migrants stay only temporarily in the receiving
country; they eventually return to their country of origin; and they
remit money saved while working in the host country to their country of
origin. Some advantages of temporary migration are discussed, both for
the migrant himself and for his country of origin, and three common
patterns of emigration and return are described. Most of the examples
given reflect the migration experience of

characteristics and effects of circular migration. Individuals who
participate in this type of migration are young, relatively well
educated, single, and economically motivated. Circulation is an
alternative to permanent migration and should be accommodated by
planners and policymakers. The setting for this case study is Cebu and
Misamis Oriental provinces, the Philippines."

The
effect of the urban traditional sector on rural-urban migration in
developing countries is examined. The author constructs a three-sector
model along the lines of a model developed by Harris and Todaro, which
also includes the urban traditional sector. The implications for
social welfare policy and urban wages are
considered.

Urbanization and outmigration in Somalia: final report. LC
85-144207. May 1983. vi, 70 pp. Clark University, International
Development Program: Worcester, Massachusetts. In Eng.
The authors
report on a study of rural exodus and urbanization in Somalia, which
was conducted in a four-week period in 1983 and involved interviews
with 30 public officials and rural village leaders. Particular
attention is given to "i) changes in income and investment patterns
arising out of migration; ii) shifts in the settlement hierarchy due to
migration; and iii) the types of linkages maintained between migrants
and their places of origin."
The survey findings show a rapid pace
of urbanization in Mogadishu and in some regional urban centers,
accompanied by significant rural out-migration. The existence of
income disparities between rural and urban areas as a factor
contributing to migration patterns is considered. The need to take
into account the economic and demographic consequences of urbanization
and rural exodus in framing development policy for Somalia is
emphasized.

Alden; Harris, John. Education, earnings, and migration in
Indonesia. Economic Development and Cultural Change, Vol. 34, No.
2, Jan 1986. 223-44 pp. Chicago, Illinois. In Eng.
In this
investigation of migration in Indonesia and its determinants, the
authors assert that "Java is best characterized as an equilibrium
system in which migration flows are sufficiently responsive to
differential geographic emergence of opportunities to prevent large
earning differentials from becoming established." They compare the
earnings of those who have migrated to urban areas with the earnings of
rural residents, identify major characteristics of migrants and rural
residents, and assess differential migration rates on the basis of
these characteristics.
The findings show sharp differences in
propensities for rural-urban migration by age, sex, and education. The
authors conclude that "the key variable that can influence the
[migration] flows is the location of job creation with specific
education and/or skill requirements." The analysis is based on data
from a 1973 survey of migration in Java, conducted by the National
Institute of Economics and Social Research in
Indonesia.

migration and urbanisation in India: a critical analysis. Gujarat
Institute of Area Planning Working Paper, No. 2, Dec 1985. vi, 88 pp.
Gujarat Institute of Area Planning: Ahmedabad, India. In Eng.
The
authors critically examine a range of data concerning migration and
urbanization in India. They attempt "to identify how far the observed
urban growth is attributable to (a) the reclassification of localities
from rural to urban (or vice versa); (b) an extension of the boundaries
of urban localities; (c) natural increase; and (d) net migration from
rural to urban areas." Data are from decennial censuses for the years
1901-1911, national sample surveys, unpublished university studies, and
other published sources.
Among the issues considered are
reservations about birthplace data, the classification of migrants by
birthplace and by place of last residence, migration according to
duration of residence data, components of India's urban growth from
1961 to 1981, and reasons for the deceleration in rural-urban migration
since the 1950s. The need for a multidisciplinary approach to such
problems is stressed.

Migration between rural peripheral areas and urban central areas is
analyzed using the city of Nairobi, Kenya, as an example. The study is
based on official Kenyan data for 1969-1979. The role of Nairobi as a
focal point for both centripetal and centrifugal migration is
discussed, and the volume, intensity, and direction of migration
streams are examined. An attempt is also made to evaluate this
migration in terms of modernization and dependency
theories.

An analysis of recent rural migrants in the city
of Monterrey, Mexico, is presented. The focus of the study is on the
impact of rural-urban migration on social class. The author concludes
that in contrast to Europe, where the assimilation of rural migrants
has been the norm, migrants in Monterrey are in the process of
establishing original and distinct social and economic structures in
the city.
