This
is a general nontechnical study of human migration around the world.
The author demonstrates that migration has been a constant factor
throughout history, whether as belligerent invasion or peaceful
immigration, and that the consequences of such migration range from
genocide to cultural and socioeconomic enrichment. The focus is on the
relevance of migration concepts to modern French
politics.

Mahmoud A. A dynamic migration model with
uncertainty. Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, Vol. 18,
1994. 511-38 pp. Amsterdam, Netherlands. In Eng.
The author
presents "a dynamic version of the Harris-Todaro migration model where
a finite population of infinitely-lived Bayesian agents choose
consumption and migration decision rules as a function of their
histories. The agents do not know the production functions in the two
sectors and learn about them through wage draws that they receive from
the stochastic production functions. The government knows the true
production functions but is uninformed about the agents' beliefs, and
the actual wage draws they observe. The government maximizes its
welfare function using wage subsidies in the two sectors, and a
migration tax. We solve the agents' dynamics programming problem, and
then use the solution to solve the government's dynamic programming
problem. We study the effects of government policies on the population
distribution, and illustrate the model by numerically solving a
particular parametric example."

International Migration Review, Vol. 28, No. 3, Fall 1994. 539-53 pp.
Staten Island, New York. In Eng.
"Using data from a longitudinal
panel study conducted in 1982 and 1989 in...Mali, this article
demonstrates that the level of migration did not rise during the
drought of 1983-1985. However, there was a dramatic increase in the
migration of women and children during the severe 1983-1985 drought.
Along with this increase in migration by women and children, there was
a shift to short-cycle circulation, with 64 percent of the migrants
adopting circular patterns. The study describes the characteristics of
these migrants and recommends changes to development and migration
policies that will facilitate such migrations in subsequent
droughts."

This is a general introduction to the study of migration
and to the use of models in such studies. An introductory chapter
examines the sociological theories of migration. Part 1 examines
behavioral approaches to migration, including employment opportunities,
predicting individual behavior, and occupational mobility. Part 2
looks at return migration. Part 3 deals with immigration, and Part 4
with migration streams and their effect on spatial distribution. Part
5 concerns the role of migration in population projections. The
geographical scope is worldwide, with particular emphasis in several
cases on the United States.

"The
purpose of this paper...is twofold: first, to specify a way of
calculating place utility so that potential migrants could move to the
place where overall place utility is maximized; and second, which is
more important, to reveal how decision-makers in the real world, who
are acting within 'bounded rationalities'...,make their decisions on
where to migrate. This study is supported by an empirical survey of
recent Chinese immigrants to Edmonton [Canada]....The findings reveal
that when people evaluate different places, they do not necessarily
look for the one that generates the highest overall value or utility
across all properties....The study further indicates that the
assumption underlying most microeconomic models (that maximizing
utility or benefit is the ultimate rule for choosing one location out
of several) has not been verified."

'rights' of illegal immigrants, a system of centralized identity cards
for legal residents tied to a computer network like credit cards, and a
concerted effort to make the smuggling of illegals unprofitable to the

thesis is that Europe is undergoing an international but
intracontinental migration such as it has not seen since the beginning
of the Cold War. The authors cite several reasons for the recent
outburst of migration: ethnic relocation, the search for refuge and
asylum, and the need for work. They also present a country-by-country
description of sending and receiving nations. The push and pull
factors causing such massive migration cannot only be contained by the
present methods of having each government erect legislative and other
barriers--such as armed border guards--against
newcomers."

"Passages funded by Australia's
colonial governments accounted for 56 per cent of all arrivals from the
United Kingdom between 1831 and 1860. In concert with a range of
private, Colonial Office, and Poor Law sources in the U.K., analysis of
data on the emigrants' age, sex, occupation, county of origin,
literacy, and religious persuasion, collected by colonial Immigration
Agents, challenges the traditional view of Australia's government
immigrants. Rather than indigent misfits, shovelled out by a system
anxious to rid the U.K. of its poor, they were primarily well-informed,
self-selecting, literate individuals who often sought help from
philanthropic agencies or their local parish to enable them to finance
their passage deposit, mandatory clothing, and travel to the port of
embarkation. Comparative analysis of data on occupation and county of
origin, which suggests that they were not the spillover of the North
America-bound streams, further challenges the prevailing
view."

"This article
examines the cross-country and intertemporal determinants of overseas
migration from Europe in the late nineteenth century. Using a new real
wage data base, the results support the pioneering work of Richard
Easterlin: rates of natural increase in Europe and income gaps between
Europe and overseas were both important, while any additional influence
associated with industrialization was modest. The network effects of
previous migrants were very strong. The upswing of the emigration
cycle was dominated by the earlier stages of the demographic transition
and industrialization, reinforced by the rising stock of migrants
abroad. On the downswing of the cycle these forces ebbed and were
increasingly dominated by the convergence of real wages in the Old
World on real wages in the New."

country. In: Migration policies in Europe and the United States,
edited by Giacomo Luciani. 1993. 145-62 pp. Kluwer Academic: Boston,
Massachusetts/Dordrecht, Netherlands. In Eng.
The author attempts
"to show that economic theory does not offer clear-cut indications
concerning the sign and size of the impact of immigration on the host
country. In other words, economic theory does not unambiguously
support the view often shared by politicians and policy makers,
according to which migration inflows have mainly undesirable effects on
the native economy. Indeed, based on the survey of some economic
models and of the limited available empirical evidence, this paper
shows that there might be desirable correlations between migration
inflows and economic indicators taken from three areas: 1) labour
market, 2) output and growth, and 3) public finance and
welfare."

"Unlike
prior researchers, we argue that social capital contained in migrant
networks is not dichotomous, but continuous and varies in terms of
quality and quantity. Quality is defined by the strength of social
ties to people with U.S. experience and by the closeness of their
attachment to the United States. Quantity is simply the number of
connections at a given level of quality. We construct four indices of
social capital that take into account these notions of quality and
quantity, and use them to show that social capital has little effect on
the costs of undocumented migration between Mexico and the United
States, but that it significantly raises the benefits. We go on to
demonstrate that social capital increases the odds of undocumented
migration in theoretically expected ways and offer a reformulation of
network theory that emphasizes the benefits rather than the costs of
migration."

post-war period can be divided into three phases, each raising specific
economic and social issues. Until 1973 European growth was accompanied
by a large migration movement, which will be analyzed first. In
1973-1974, European countries put an end to the influx of immigrants by
closing their borders, and the implications of this will be considered.
Finally, the present situation will be examined, and perspectives for

changes in the immigration pattern of Surinam [to the Netherlands] it
is important to take into consideration that the age structure of the
Surinamese population in the Netherlands and in Surinam are similar.
The age group 15-44 years is relatively large. Because of
family-formation migration, the age structure can be considered as a
demographic pull-factor. In 1983 and 1987 the political situation in
Surinam may explain increases in migration. In the last months of 1993
there was a sharp increase in immigration that cannot be explained by
the political situation. The economic situation has grown much

Trends in
international migration to Europe are reviewed. Two strategies for
dealing with the pressure of immigration are then discussed: the
creation of an environment favorable to immigration in the receiving
countries, and the use of development aid to improve living conditions
in the countries of origin. The need for international cooperation is
stressed.

"The paper reviews techniques developed in demography, geography
and statistics that are useful for bridging the gap between available
data on international migration flows and the information required for
policy making and research. The basic idea of the paper is as follows:
to establish a coherent and consistent data base that contains
sufficiently detailed, up-to-date and accurate information, data from
several sources should be combined....The issues may be tackled more
easily if the statistics that are being compiled are viewed as
different outcomes or manifestations of underlying stochastic processes
governing migration. The link between the processes and their outcomes
is described by models, the parameters of which must be estimated from
the available data....The paper discusses the experience of the U.S.
Bureau of the Census in combining migration data from several sources.
It also summarizes the many efforts in Europe to establish a coherent
and consistent data base on international
migration."

International Migration Review, Vol. 28, No. 3, Fall 1994. 449-77 pp.
Staten Island, New York. In Eng.
"Prior research on immigrant
naturalization has focused mainly on the effects of immigrants'
adaptation experiences and demographic characteristics on their
propensity to naturalize. This article proposes a broader analytical
framework which incorporates immigrants' individual characteristics and
larger social contexts in the country of origin and the country of
destination to explain the likelihood of citizenship acquisition. The
framework is tested for a cohort of recent immigrants, using the PUMS
data from the 1980 U.S. census. The results show that economic,
political, social, cultural and geographical conditions in the country
of origin, and immigrants ethnic communities and urban concentration in
the country of destination, to a large extent influence immigrants'
propensity for naturalization and that, net of the contextual factors,
many of the immigrants' adaptation and demographic characteristics are
also significant predictors of citizenship
acquisition."

An analysis of migration patterns in Mali is presented.
The author concludes that "rural migrations in Mali tend to be from
North to South, involving mainly the peoples of the sahelian regions
and those dwelling at the northern edges of the sudanic areas. The
results demographically speaking in the South are large concentrated
pockets of population." The problems posed by the these migrations for
development planning are noted.

Studies Center: Ann Arbor, Michigan. In Eng.
"Using data from the
1985 American Housing Survey, this analysis takes an in-depth look at
racial differentials in intrametropolitan mobility [in the United
States]." The results indicate that "although blacks are more likely
to move than whites, no racial difference remains when pre-move
household and housing variables are added to the equation. However,
tenure and location interact with race in the prediction of local
mobility. Black city renters have particularly low chances of moving
while black suburban owners have particularly high chances."

An analysis of migration in California is presented using data from
the 1990 U.S. census. The focus is on migration from California to
other parts of the United States, and its causes. Two separate
migration streams are identified, the out-migration of lower-income,
less-educated Californians to neighboring states that is probably the
result of large-scale immigration to the state from Mexico, and a more
normal migration of the better educated, higher-income Californians
with the rest of the country as a whole. The impact of these migration
trends on the population of neighboring states is also
assessed.

The author
examines the hypothesis that cotton harvest mechanization was a major
cause of African American out-migration from the rural South of the
United States between 1950 and 1960. The results suggest that the
effect of mechanization on migration has been exaggerated. "In order
to link previous estimates of migration to displacement by
mechanization, an estimate is made of the number of cotton acres upon
which mechanized harvesting would have been profitable in 1959 and of
the number of African-Americans harvesting that acreage. It is found
that about one-fourth of the migration could have resulted directly
from the harvester."

work of Wilber (1963) and Long (1973) as historical benchmarks,
migration expectancy is found to have fallen since the earlier studies.
Longer-distance migration (between counties and between states) has
remained relatively constant over the same period so that these types
of moves now account for a larger proportion of total residential
mobility."

refugees in the Eastern Province of Zambia. Previous studies of forced
migration elsewhere in Africa have suggested that not only stresses,
but also positive gains for local development may be felt in areas

appropriate framework from which to analyze the impact of refugees is
to focus separately on the effects of population increase on the one
hand, and the specific characteristics of refugees on the other. Using
this distinction, a model is developed of potential beneficial changes
resulting from the arrival of refugees. Key assumptions of this model
are then identified to be of relevance to policies designed to promote
local economic development under conditions of refugee
migration."

The difficulty of tracking temporary short-term population
movements (commuting, seasonal visitation, convention and business
travel) is examined, with a focus on Hawaiian statistician Robert
Schmitt's work. The author finds that "Schmitt's contributions toward a
methodology for estimating daytime populations were important because
this approach utilized data sources that were widely available for
small areas on at least an annual basis. Consequently, this approach
could be used for frequent updates of the estimates, for many areas and
at relatively little cost....The major drawback of the approach is the
lack of solid data on temporary residents to serve as larger-area
control totals and as a historical base for small-area estimates." The
geographical focus is on the United States, particularly
Hawaii.
