and in Paris since 1945: the history of a cohort. Population.
English Selection, Vol. 2, 1990. 187-212 pp. Paris, France. In Eng.
Using data from two retrospective surveys carried out in France in
1981 and 1986, the authors "reconstitute the residential history of a
cohort and...measure the differences [in migration histories] between
Paris and the whole of France....We shall attempt to reconstruct the
residential histories of these individuals, by analysing firstly the
stage when they left their parents to set up their first independent
home, and secondly mobility throughout their life course, paying
particular attention to the extension of home ownership in this
cohort."
This is a translation of the French article published in
1989 and cited in 56:10416.

choice in which the pros and cons of using gross versus net migration
measures are discussed. A second introduces and discusses the concept
of a 'spatial' choice set, which has the potential to be implemented
with laboratory experimental techniques. The third involves a
wide-ranging discussion of new directions in modeling the
interrelationships between employment and migration." The primary

The effects of age, period, and cohort (APC) on migration
behavior are analyzed using data for the Netherlands. "This paper
explores whether APC analysis is fruitful in providing new conclusions
when studying aggregate migration data from vital statistics. First,
some expectations are formulated as to the existence of age, period,
and cohort effects. Then, the data and methods are described. Next,
the results of the analyses are presented. Each of the possible
perspectives within the age-period-cohort framework will be adopted:
the age-by-period, the age-by-cohort, the period-by-cohort, and the
age-by-period-by-cohort perspective. It will be shown how each
perspective gives rise to its own conclusions on the existence of age,
period, and cohort effects, and how these conclusions together permit a
meaningful interpretation. The paper concludes with a discussion of
the main results and some intentions for future
research."

The nine papers in this volume were originally
presented at the 1989 annual conference of the Social History Society
in Oxford, England. The theme of this conference was migration and
social change. The papers span the period from the seventeenth to the
twentieth century and cover both internal and international migration.
While the primary geographical focus is on the United Kingdom, the
section on emigration considers the effect on place of destination,
including Australia, the United States, and other areas of European
settlement. Papers comparing Scotland and England are included in the
section on internal migration, as are studies on the role of the family
in the migration process, and migration from Wales to England over
time. The final paper examines immigration to
Britain.

possible to measure it directly, but an indirect way of measuring it at
cohort level is illustrated. Its use in further analyses of migration

living in the Gulf...the war...was much more of a disaster for Arabs
than for Asians....Arab migrant populations...were dramatically
affected by the Gulf crisis. In contrast, the Asian migrant community
was largely concentrated in Saudi Arabia and the [United Arab Emirates]
and remained relatively less affected by the crisis. Subsequent
polarization in the Arab world gives Asian labor-exporting countries an
unexpected opportunity to increase their share of Gulf labor markets
still further in the coming years."

The authors provide a socioeconomic profile and an analysis of
labor migration from Bangladesh to the Middle East, which peaked in the
early 1980s. They compare this migration with earlier Bangladeshi
migration to the United Kingdom. Because migration to the Middle East
was organized by the governments concerned rather than by individuals,
the authors feel that it is unlikely to result in the establishment of
permanent ethnic minority populations as it did in the United Kingdom.
They also suggest that this migration has favored wealthy
Bangladeshis.

Statistics are presented for
the Netherlands for the year 1990 on international migration,
population growth due to migration, and the emigration and return of
both nationals and foreigners. An increase of some 19 percent in the
number of immigrants occurred, while emigration declined by 4 percent.
The problem of underreporting of migrants, especially foreigners, is
noted.

This is a general review of the history of international migration
in the Netherlands from 1590 to 1900. "We first consider immigration
to the Netherlands; we then discuss emigration, and finally the
importance of migration in the development of the Netherlands during
the period studied, and the European significance of Dutch migration
history." Particular attention is paid to the importance of labor
migration.

The
author discusses migration to Great Britain since 1945, with a focus on
the importance of taking a historical approach in order to understand
long-held assumptions regarding migration from the British Caribbean
and the Indian subcontinent. Causes and consequences of non-European
migrants being considered members of distinct and inferior races are
analyzed. The author concludes that "when seeking to explain the
nature and significance of racism in contemporary Europe, we might
usefully begin by focussing on the processes involved in the
construction and reproduction of the
Nation-State...."

The
role of Miami as a major immigrant city in the United States is
explored. The author suggests that in contrast to earlier trends,
migration to Miami, particularly from Cuba, demonstrates a new pattern
of adjustment to, rather than assimilation into, mainstream American
society and culture. The growth of ethnicity and biculturalism as
major forces in Miami is described.

Japanese emigration to the U.S. Pacific Northwest, using a multiple
regression analysis. In estimating the regression equations, new
proxies are introduced for the 'family-and-friends' effect that are
free of the statistical problems common in previous studies on
long-distance migration. The result shows that the information
networks that developed between pioneer immigrants and their home
districts played a central role in shaping emigration patterns. The
lack of an alternative means of obtaining reliable information about
conditions in the United States appears to be
responsible."

"The contention of this
article is that the debate on 'immigration' in France needs to take
into account a number of issues which are frequently underestimated or
ignored....First, the surge of migration over the last three decades,
and the role of the French state, must be seen in the context of
economic and demographic issues that have dominated French thinking for
a century or more. Second, 'immigrants' cannot be treated as a
homogeneous group....Thirdly, the article reassesses the role of state
policy since 1945 and reviews the varying impact of controls on
migration. Finally, the case is put for addressing some aspects of the
question at the regional rather than the national scale and for taking
into account very recent changes in the [labor force] demand for
migrants that will have significant effects on their future
role."

European population since government relaxation of strict passport and
currency restrictions in the 1980s. Employment and economic
opportunities in the receiving countries are cited as prime motivators
for migrants, while for the countries of origin, the main advantage of
allowing emigration is the anticipated transfer of currency back to
those countries.

Books: Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey/London, England. In Eng.
A
historical world overview of labor migration, both forced and
voluntary, is presented. "The study concentrates on giving an account
of the world market for labour power in its direct forms, that is to
say, those forms which require or include the transfer of human beings.
It points out the links, similarities and differences between these
various forms and attempts to clarify those forms of exploitation
specific to female workers....Chapters 1 to 5 offer an historical
analysis of the processes of the world market for labour power in its
direct forms, beginning at the end of the 15th century and extending to
the present day, Chapter 6 considers the extent to which theories of
development and migration deal with these structures and processes, and
finally Chapter 7 draws together the elements of a preliminary
theoretical analysis of the world market for labour power."
Consideration is given to the Spanish colonization of the Americas,
forced migration of Africans to the United States and the Caribbean,
forced and migrant labor within Africa, and modern-day facets of labor
migration, including that of skilled labor.

magnitude of the problem which the Mexican immigrants represent and the

efficiency, taxes and dependency, and unemployment. The next chapter
examines the impact of immigration on Canada's international status and
on the distribution of power among the provinces and municipalities.
Two chapters explore the experience of immigrants in the labor force
and the special case of refugees. Prejudice, tolerance, diversity, and
multiculturalism are then considered. A final chapter summarizes the

PDOD Paper, No. 8, Jul 1991. 35 pp. Universiteit van Amsterdam,

Netherlands. In Eng.
"It is argued in this paper that the future of
international migration in and towards Europe cannot be assessed
without an examination of the changes in the ideological situation
which the continent has experienced. As a result security needs have
changed, and economic and political adjustments will have to follow.
The conclusion formulated is that Eastern and Western Europe will be
drawn closer together than has long been possible, that the cultural
homogeneity of Europe will be stressed and that Europe will gradually
adjust itself to the status of 'epicentre' of immigration. If current
plans are an indication, this adjustment will make both legal and
undocumented migration more difficult than is currently the case, while
asylum seekers will be faced with quicker procedures to assess the
basis of their request. Nevertheless, a substantial inflow from third
countries is likely, while within Europe the flow from East to West
could become significant."

This is the continuation of a study on generational

of the Paris region in French migration, using data from two
retrospective surveys carried out by INED on migration over the course
of the twentieth century. The study identifies regional differences as
well as the key role of the Paris region in influencing national
migration trends. The authors note that Paris attracts young migrants,
some of whom subsequently leave for their region of origin. A clear
link is established between geographical and social mobility, with
Paris seen as the place to go in order to achieve upward social
mobility.

whether fiscally induced migration occurs in Canada; that is, whether

migration is developed in which individuals choose to live in the
province where their utility would be highest. The model is estimated
using aggregate data for the period 1962-81....The results indicate
that migration is influenced by provincial government spending, trough
the magnitude and direction of the effect differs with the type of
government spending....The implication of these results is that
intergovernmental transfer payments and provincial natural resource
revenues also have the potential to influence migration flows in
Canada."

"This paper tests the causal
ordering between property taxes and inter-municipal migration, using
both bivariate and multivariate methods. Empirical results, based on
annual data for post-war Canada (1940-84), support the Tiebout-Tullock
hypothesis, which implies that differential local tax [systems] and
public services induce intercommunity migration, inter alia. Local
spending and taxation are not therefore fully capitalized in property
values."

"This paper examines
the impact of a college or military installation in a [U.S.]
metropolitan area on the age structure of the migration for the area.
We find that the presence of such institutions causes significant and
systematic impacts on age patterns of in- and out-migration that may
not be obvious a priori. Failure to account for these effects in
studies of gross migration (whether or not aggregated over age groups),
or of net migration by age, will typically lead to bias or to
inefficiency in the results, depending on the techniques of analysis
used."

explanation for recent changes in the West German migration
system. Geoforum, Vol. 22, No. 3, 1991. 299-317 pp. Elmsford, New
York/Oxford, England. In Eng.
The author uses a deconcentration
theory to explain shifts in migration that occurred in the Federal
Republic of Germany during the 1980s. He finds that "a general
redistribution of the West German population down the metropolitan size
hierarchy occurred during the first half of the 1980s, and was not the
result of (a net) out-migration from old industrial areas....A spatial
deconcentration of manufacturing and service sector employment during
the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s allowed family-aged migrants to actualize
their preferences for living in lower-density and small urban areas,
and as a result a regional deconcentration of population became evident
in the 1980s."

dominance in these activities. Larger net migration was expected for
counties specialized in activities that operate in international
ecosystems in which the United States is dominant and less in other
types of counties. The results for post-1980 migration in United

"In attempting to model
gross migration flows, as distinct from net flows, entropy and
information theory models supplement those from the demographic
tradition. However, clear differences exist between these two classes,
including the type of origin and destination information which needs to
be supplied, the relationship between the overall decision to migrate
and the conditional choice of destination, the role of behavioral
variables other than distance, and the expected predictive performance.
In this paper, an enhanced interregional migration model is introduced
which attempts a further integration of both the above classes. A
linear version of the model is used for exploratory data analysis on a
large Australian population census data set. Several alternative
hypotheses are then tested with the general model. Some guidelines are
also indicated toward developing a fully dynamic version of the model
as well as a formal hierarchical
framework."

counties during the era of the Great Migration. Using county-level
data for ten southern states, including a new inventory of southern
lynchings, we find support for the model during two decades, 1910-1920
and 1920-1930. Out-migration of blacks was heaviest from counties
where more lynchings had occurred and, in turn counties that witnessed
relatively more out-migration of blacks experienced fewer lynchings of
blacks. We conclude that mob violence was an important social force
driving blacks from certain areas of the
South."
