Illinois. In Eng.
"This article considers the effects of migration
and return specifically on agriculture in one region of Portugal, the
Serra do Alvao. This area has experienced both a massive outflow of
population and, at the same time, the maintenance of a high proportion
of its remaining population in agriculture. I identify a number of
adjustments to agricultural and social practices which were initiated
largely in response to this widespread migration and return and, at the
same time, I distinguish the impact of different categories of
returning migrants on the farming system." The data were collected
during field research carried out in 1987 and
1988.

"The purpose of this book is to explore the
phenomenon of human migration, especially as it occurs within the
so-called developed countries of the world. The approach is
analytical, and various kinds of migration models are described and
explained....Structural equation models are used to specify the
interrelationships among sets of variables that are hypothesized to
explain migration....There is a unifying geographic emphasis on the
relationship between socioeconomic processes and spatial patterns. The
book is organized according to two main axes of differentiation.
First, a distinction is made between macro and micro approaches to
explaining migration....A second distinction is made between
interregional migration and migration within cities, or residential
mobility."

posed by return migration, the demise of 'guest-workers',
multi-culturality, political and electoral geography, and the
particular position of second and third generation migrants. The final
section considers present and future trends, with particular emphasis
on the role of skilled migrants, Eastern Europe, South-to-North

and the volume is divided into three parts. "Part I concentrates on
methodological issues and on instructive historical patterns of
migration during the period of European rule. In Part II the various
authors are concerned with recent movements of refugees, transmigrants,
and immigrants to frontier realms within Southeast Asia or to other
lands. The chapters in Part III consider the adjustment of migrants to
new economic and cultural environments and discuss certain theoretical
implications of the current migrational
process."

This collection of
studies by various authors is the product of a 1991 conference held in
Colorado concerning elderly migration. The studies focus on the
migration of those aged 60 and over in Western developed countries.
The book "examines the factors that govern why the elderly decide to
migrate, how the migration processes operate and the impact the arrival
and departure of an age-specific group has on the population at large.
The study is cast in a comparative framework that points out the
similarities and contrasts between North America, Europe and Japan."
The contributions are organized into four parts, which deal with
motivation and causes, the proximity of children and living
arrangements, elderly metropolitan redistribution patterns, and three
case studies concerning Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United
States.

"The article deals with the problem of migration of

The authors focus their attention on the fact that in the latter half
of the 1980s most of the migratory waves to Russia differed radically
from the migration of previous years in scope, form, structure, and
intensity. Migration is tending to increase. The proclamation of
sovereignty by the former Union republics and the aggravation of
relations between nationalities have induced mounting waves of
migration of Russian-speaking people. The authors write that Russians
are moving from all sovereign states, and they forecast an increasing
exodus of Russians in the 1990s."

mainly qualitative and the collection of life histories constitutes the
main data source." The author notes that "the increasing social and
economic marginalization of the peasant population, the exodus of the
young labor force, and the educational and migratory strategy of
parents for their children are all but a few factors which transform
the traditional peasant mode of living. Given the actual state of the
economy and polity in Haiti, emigration generates

of 13 per cent in Poland. Total emigration potential from the region is
estimated to have been between 10.2 and 16.7 million....A multiple

democracy are the main factors that were independently associated with
desire to emigrate."

that the effects on the composition and characteristics of the

Some aspects of recent immigration trends in
Europe are analyzed, with particular reference to the situation in
Italy. The focus is on the process of settlement and the level of
assimilation of migrants. The author suggests that in contrast to
previous European experience, migrants in the last 20 years have tended
to preserve their ethnic and cultural identity rather than assimilate
into the receiving society. The consequences of this change, which
include the development of multicultural societies, the growth of
anti-immigrant opinion, and the development of informal economies, are
reviewed.

Migration patterns by country and
ethnic group from the South Pacific region to the United States and
Canada are discussed, with a focus on the period since 1960.
Consideration is given to the causes of such migration and its impact
on the sending countries; mortality, health status, and occupational
status of migrants by country of origin; employment and socioeconomic
status differentials of migrants in their home and host countries; and
fertility rates among Pacific Islanders living in the United States or
Canada. Data are from the 1980 U.S. census, the 1981 Canadian census,
and other official or published sources.

In this book, originally written as a
dissertation, the author examines the socioeconomic consequences of
labor force migration from Jordan after 1973. Most of this migration
was directed toward the Arab oil-exporting countries. Part 1 covers
theories and problems of analyzing the effects of migration, Part 2 is
a case study of Jordan, and Part 3 examines the future need for
migrants in the Arab oil states.

This study examines characteristics of U.S.
citizens who are resident outside the United States. The focus of the
study is on a comparative analysis of Americans living in Australia and
Israel. Three main questions are addressed: "(1) What accounts for
the motivation of migrants to move? (2) What are the sources of the
adjustment problems the migrants experience? (3) What explains whether
the migrants remain or return to the United
States?"

This publication presents 25 contributions by various authors on
aspects of current immigration to the United States. The papers deal
with such issues as whether immigration perpetuates the underclass and
impedes economic improvement for black and Hispanic U.S. citizens,
whether migrants displace American workers and depress wages, the
purpose of immigration law, and how and why the myth of labor shortage
arose. The common theme of the studies is that current U.S.
immigration policies are contributing to a decline in U.S. economic
competitiveness and are undermining the job opportunities, wages, and
working conditions of the disadvantaged.

international migration based upon factor income maximization, factor
endowments, income distribution and constitutions. Section III shows
how the model fits a large component of nineteenth-century experience
and Section IV focuses on the, at first sight, anomalous policy of the
most important destination for European immigration, the United

patterns are examined across U.S. migration experience categories, and

relative levels of agricultural and human capital

"Alternative multi-state population projections to 2050 based on six
scenarios show that (1) in the case of no further immigration the total
population of Western Europe will start to decline after 2010; (2) the
rate of integration influences the future size of the non-European
population much more than alternative levels of immigration; (3) in the
long run the Eastern Europeans will be quantitatively insignificant;
(4) the Western European population is bound to significant population
aging no matter what happens with immigration; and (5) in the short to
medium run immigrants contribute to the alleviation of the pension
burden."

and that the weekly earnings of immigrants who worked full time were
significantly lower than those of natives. The survey also pointed to
differences in the level of schooling as a major reason for these
disparities....Other factors affecting the labor market status of
immigrants include the length of time they had lived in the United
States and their fluency in English."

pp. Oxford, England. In Eng.
Factors affecting the flow of migrants
from Ireland in the nineteenth century are discussed, in answer to two
questions. "The first is: why was it that labour flowed from Ireland
to Britain (and elsewhere), while capital failed to flow from Britain
(and elsewhere) to Ireland? The second is: did more productive
members of society emigrate?...[The author] outlines a simple two
country, two factor, one good model that will be used to formally link
[these] two questions....[He also] suggests that high quality workers
may indeed have been disproportionately mobile in nineteenth century
Ireland. A simple microeconomic argument is given in support of this
claim."

The rapid increase in international migration from Eastern
to Western Europe that occurred in 1989-1990 is described, with
particular attention to the effect of this trend on Poland. The author
notes that the relaxation of migration laws in Eastern Europe has
allowed migration that would have previously been banned. In addition
to the migration stream from east to west, the author also observes
that Eastern Europe may become a major destination of refugees from the
former Soviet Union as well as from developing
countries.

This is a comparative study of two North
American migration streams: Italian immigrants to North America in
general, and French-Canadian migration from Quebec province to the
United States. The objective of the study is "to penetrate the local
microcosms of sending societies and to identify those selection
mechanisms responsible for sending away some villagers but not others
or for bringing some of those migrants back to their villages." The
study examines the process of working-class formation and the unusual
place held by Quebec as both a sending and a receiving society. The
time period covered is from 1860 to 1914.

"The educational, occupational, industrial and income

Seven alternative theoretical models are reviewed. A composite model
of 'segmented structural change' is found to correspond more closely
than alternative theoretical perspectives to the empirical evidence.
Specifically, immigrants are found at all levels of the system, but
there is differential incorporation by gender, ethnicity and period of
immigration. Recent immigrants from Third World countries tend to be
disadvantaged."

population growth and low living standards will encourage emigration,
except by the highly skilled. One consequence will be more illegal

of specification bears on the testing of migration theories, and
assessing the role migration plays in job and housing markets: the
direction and significance of the effects of economic variates on
migration depends on the specification of the statistical model. The
application is in the context of migration in London and South East

"The purpose of this paper is to 'resurrect'
the measure of net migration and defend its continued use under
specific research circumstances, despite the current dissatisfaction
with the measure as expressed by some scholars. We employ data from
the 1980 [U.S.] Census of Population to compare five measures of
migration, including net migration rates, in- and out-migration rates,
migration efficiency ratios and migration turnover rates. We
demonstrate the additivity of in- and out-migration rates with net
migration rates and migration turnover rates. Also, we show how the
migration efficiency ratio and turnover rates are conceptually and
mathematically related. Finally, a simple multivariate model is
estimated to show how regression coefficients from in- and
out-migration rate models are related to net migration and migration
turnover rates."

theory of sequential migration to the study of internal labor migration
of migrants with scant knowledge about the destination area or the
financial implications of migrating. Consideration is given to the
impact of socioeconomic status on the decision to migrate from both
urban and rural areas. Data are from the 1985-1986 Survey of Living
Standards in Peru.

"In this paper 1980 [Brazilian] Census microdata are used to
evaluate the experiences of males who moved from the Northeast to the
Southeast in the post- 'miracle' period. Using regression analysis,
migrant earnings are compared to those of persons who remain in the
Northeast, to estimate the average earnings gain from relocating.
These results are then disaggregated by education, age at migration,
period of residence, and particular sending and receiving location, to
provide more specific information on which groups benefit most. Wide
variation in gains is observed, but substantial improvements in
earnings are reported in most cases."

role of black kin, friend, and communal networks in the process. Thus,
the essays locate black migration within the South, situate it within
the changing political economy, and emphasize the role of blacks in
shaping their own migration experiences."

migration of refugees. The author also considers the
interrelationships among foreign, refugee, and immigration policies in
the United States. The study begins with an overview of the events
that are leading to increasing out-migration from the third world, and
then focuses on official and political refugees. Parts 2 and 3 examine
migration routes taken by refugees from various countries' revolutions
and how these migrants have been received in the United States. Part 4
looks at repatriation, and Part 5 focuses on policy implications for
the United States.

"The number of forced

changed international climate of the 1990s...has shifted the focus from
the asylum and resettlement countries to the countries of origin:
there is today a greater willingness to intervene in other countries'
affairs either to avert the creation of new flows of focused migrants
or to assist internally displaced populations, and there is the
expectation of large-scale voluntary returns of refugees in asylum.
This article discusses these and other policy issues concerning forced
migration in this new international
environment."

This book presents seven case studies on the
experiences of migrant workers returning from the Middle East to
Bangladesh, Kerala in India, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea,
Sri Lanka, and Thailand. The data are from a survey of some 500
returning migrants. "The survey revealed what sort of labourers
migrated and why; how migrants were recruited; conditions of employment
in the host country and how migrants adjusted to their new
environments; the impact of migration on the worker's household; and
experiences of returned migrants as they reentered the work-force and
were reabsorbed in their home country." The general conclusion drawn is
that "in terms of economic well-being and human development, the
migration has brought benefits to a significant proportion of the
migrants."

workers to be employed in their area of residence, the spatial
distribution of jobs and sex-typed occupations often necessitates
workers commuting to places discordant with their

paper contains a model with which the desirability of persistent
urbanization can be examined. There are two regions: city and
countryside. Joint restrictions on the technologies in each region and
on preferences over the goods produced in each region are the driving
force of migration. In equilibrium there is persistent migration from
the countryside to the city. Even though there are externalities in
production, the competitive equilibrium is Pareto
optimal."
