H. Migration

Studies that treat quantitative data on migration analytically. Methodological studies concerned primarily with migration are coded in this division and cross-referenced to N. Methods of Research and Analysis Including Models, as appropriate. Includes some consideration of policy aspects, but studies relating primarily to policies designed to affect migration are coded under M.3. Measures Affecting Migration.

H.1. General Migration

Studies that concern both international and internal migration.

"German migration statistics are based on a system of local registers, and a change of dwelling is considered to be a migration event. In the international context, this may lead to many discrepancies, because other countries usually use other or modified definitions. Often a particular intended length of stay is a precondition for a definition of an individual as a migrant. Sometimes only a change of permanent residence is recognised as creating a migration event, excluding all seasonal movements with an intended stay of several years. Migration data thus have to be used very carefully. One possibility for avoiding extreme differences in data between two countries may be to consider only migration balances. By doing so many disturbance effects in the data may cancel each other out in the long term."

"This paper will review selected migration processes in the longer term. It will seek to place modern migration patterns into a wider range of the migration behaviour which human populations have experienced in their history and prehistory. It will emphasise that the forms of migration which we see today, and [by] which we judge the demographic effects of migration, are only a sub-set of possible migratory behaviour. Other forms of migration, some now extinct, have had much more substantial effects upon human population than do most current forms of migration, even the recent substantial international migration to Western Europe and the United States."

The author discusses differences in destinations chosen by immigrants and native-born migrants in the United States. "The surging immigration of the 1990s continues to cluster into just a handful of large, mostly coastal metro areas. In contrast, domestic migrants are attracted to growth poles in economically booming metros and nonmetro counties east of the California immigrant ports and to dynamic metros in the Southeast and Texas and interior parts of the North. They prefer smaller metros and nonmetropolitan areas." Additional information and supporting statistics are available online at http://www.psc.lsa.umich.edu/pubs.

"The extent of taxation and redistribution policy is generally determined at a political-economy equilibrium by a balance between those who gain and those who lose from a more extensive tax-transfer policy. In a stylized model of migration and human capital formation we find, somewhat against conventional wisdom, that low-skill migration may lead to a lower tax burden and less redistribution than without migration, even though the migrants (naturally) join the pro-tax cum transfer coalition."

"The changes toward market economy and democracy are the `double transition' context for migration decision-making of people in post-communist Eastern European countries. Using data from a 1995 sample survey of the adult population of Romania, this research explores the consequences of people's values, market and democracy reform orientations, and local area market economy-related changes on intentions to move. Multiple regression models showed that the major determinants of migration intentions were younger people's beliefs favoring migration for life success and their expectations of attaining valued goals in another locality compared to their home community."

"Migration from the mountain areas of pre-industrial Europe has been seen as the product of poverty. While hardship controlled the strategies of the more marginalized households, better placed families used their migration experience to establish themselves in commerce. Over generations they used contacts and kinship systems to develop important informal trading networks. It is difficult to establish the effects of this hidden activity on local mountain economies, but dowry payments and post mortem inventories [from Savoy, now in France] are used to expose the impact of inflowing capital and its circulation."

"Data from the 1981 Census of Canada are used to develop a typology of migrants on the basis of their personal characteristics. Migrants are defined as those individuals who have changed their residence since the 1976 Census, crossing at least a municipal boundary. Socio-economic and demographic characteristics are perceived to differentiate stayers from movers, and to distinguish each migrant type [that is to say] intraprovincial, interprovincial and international. Discriminant analysis is applied to classify people into migrant types based on their personal characteristics and the typology developed."

The author outlines an implementation of a theory of labor migration under asymmetric information that provides a rich and integrated set of predictions. A basic model of labor migration under conditions of asymmetric information is first developed. The author then traces migration patterns arising from an example involving just two skill levels. He then proceeds to a four-skill-levels case and derives the resulting migration patterns. Finally, the approach utilized in the paper is placed in the context of several hypotheses concerning labor migration.

"The present paper attempts a critical review of the data systems of seven major labour-exporting countries--Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand--which account for over 90 per cent of labour outflows from Asia....Data...are discussed under separate sections focusing on limitations as well as potential for further exploitation....For all countries reviewed here, these data significantly understate total labour outflows, and the magnitude of the error seems to vary between countries and reflect both differences relating to the coverage and efficiency of the approval and monitoring procedure. This throws serious doubts on the appropriateness of official outmigration series for cross country comparison. Frequent changes in reporting procedures also make for discrete changes and spurious shifts in data which render trend analysis quite hazardous."

Feb 1996. 37 pp. University of Western Ontario, Population Studies Centre: London, Canada. In Fre.
Demographic trends concerning immigrants to Canada are analyzed using data from a number of sources, including the 1991 census. The author concludes that the demographic behavior of immigrants does not differ greatly from that of Canadians as a whole. However, immigrants generally tend to settle in major urban areas, and assimilate into the English-speaking rather than the Francophone community. Overall, immigrants compare favorably with native Canadians in respect to income; however, more recent immigrants from places other than Europe or the United States tend to be less economically successful, which could pose some problems for the future.

I explore these issues in the context of the different policies towards the migration of lesbians and gay men in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom."

This article provides some answers which we hope will allow the debate on the extent and causes of migrant professional progress in Australia to proceed on a firmer foundation." The authors find that "migrants have made a major contribution to Australia's professionally-qualified workforce. Those arriving pre-1980s and early 1980s have largely been able to convert their qualifications into professional level employment. However, later arriving migrants have been far less successful."

"Evidence on labor immigration and capital inflows to three high labor-immigration economies (Australia, Canada, the United States) is examined over periods ranging from 1820-1870 through to 1991. Data show a close association between capital flows and immigration, although causality implications are ambiguous. For the United States, the relation between factor flows is more complex than for the other countries, but flows to the United States have influenced those to smaller economies. All three nations have been subjected to common immigrant push factors through to 1930-1950 but, since World War II, linkages between factor flows have altered. Post-World War II U.S. immigration restrictions have become more important as a global determinant of labor flows, with factor flow policymaking becoming increasingly internationally interdependent."

The experiences of France and the United States concerning immigration and the integration of immigrants into the labor force are compared for the period 1880 to 1930. "Although immigration to the U.S. was politically interpreted and valued as the individual migrants' voluntary decision, only one step removed from citizenship, the absence of state regulation in the labor market reinforced the role of ethnic groups as mediators of the migration and integration process. In France, conversely, immigrants, assisted as they were and directed to their place of work by the joint effort of employers and state agencies with the consent of organized labor, found themselves direct wards of the State which developed its administrative functions to intervene on behalf of the migrants, of employers and of the `national' labor force to prevent the formation of dual labor markets. This analysis...emphasizes the historical construction of the silent and complete assimilation process within the working class in pre-World War II France, and that of ethnicity as an enduring category in the American society resulting from the vacuum of state run industrial relations."

Production uses three inputs: mobile labour, immobile capital and land. It is shown that both countries are necessarily inhabited by agents of both types and exhibit equal density of population and equal interest rate at the steady state equilibrium of the integrated economy. The steady state welfare implications of international labour migration are studied."

"The distribution of Italian surnames in France was studied for the periods 1891-1915 and 1916-1940 by using birth registration data. The 100 most common surnames in each Italian region were used as references. Differences in the distribution of surnames between Italy and each French département were assessed and mapped to show changes in the distribution of the Italian population between one period and the next. In addition, by recording increasing birth rates among those with Italian surnames, it was possible to determine the flow of migration in terms of the Italian regions involved. These methods show that Italian migration is the result of both rather old migration flows on the south eastern border of France, and a more recent movement towards areas of employment (north east and south east)...."

"In Canada, paid domestic work is often associated with (im)migrant women from a variety of countries of origin. We critically analyse Canada's foreign domestic worker programmes, noting the shifting definitions of which nationalities should participate.

This is a collection of 14 papers by various authors focusing on the economic, social, and political integration of the immigrant population of New Jersey over the decade 1980-1990. Implications for national immigration policies are drawn throughout the book. The foreword describes New Jersey in comparative perspective. Part 1 examines the demographic context, and is divided into three chapters: a comparison of the demographic and labor-market characteristics of the foreign-born population of New Jersey and the foreign-born population of the United States as a whole; an estimation of the numbers and demographic characteristics of undocumented immigrants in New Jersey, including a discussion of their fiscal impact in the state and the federal and state public policies aimed at reducing their size and impact; and an analysis of public opinion concerning immigration. Part 2 describes the economic, social, and political impacts of immigration and has chapters on the impact on wages and employment; state and local fiscal impacts; education; the effect of place of birth and ethnicity on birth outcomes; and the political behavior of immigrants. Part 3 analyzes immigrant adaptation and provides chapters on differences in fertility between immigrants and natives; immigrant incomes and labor-force assimilation; homeownership; segregation; and language ecology.

In this report, the author examines some of the possible solutions to the problems caused by global migration pressures. The proposed solutions aim at two main objectives: first, to increase employment opportunities in the countries of migrant origin; and second, to provide increased levels of international support through the United Nations Population Fund for programs to reduce fertility in those countries. Measures for a moderate increase in legal migration from South to North are also discussed.

"This paper tries to combine the issue of immigration and the long-term development of social security budgets....Can immigration help to solve the problems that future demographic change will cause for social security funds? The paper [examines] this problem using German social security data....The simulations show that the effects of immigration on the contribution rates of the social security system are quite small. In other words the problems of social security systems cannot be resolved by immigration policy....As demographic developments and institutional arrangements in social security are similar in most European states, the results also allow conclusions about other European countries."

"Immigrants who arrived in the United States before the Civil War were less likely to reside in locations with high immigrant concentrations as their time in the U.S. increased. This is contrary to the experience of recent immigrants who show no decrease in concentration after arrival....The isolation of contemporary immigrants even after several years in the U.S. thus results more from the reluctance of the native-born to relocate to places with many immigrants than from immigrants' reluctance to move to places with fewer immigrants. Contemporary immigrants had greater success than antebellum immigrants avoiding unskilled jobs as they entered the U.S. job market, though they moved out of unskilled jobs less often than antebellum immigrants....These findings suggest the need to reevaluate some of the premises upon which the concerns about the economic performance of recent immigrants are based."

The role of the immigrant entrepreneur in the mass immigration from Europe to the United States that occurred over the course of the nineteenth century is examined. The authors define entrepreneurship and hypothesize about its transfer from one country to another; they then review possible sources of immigrant entrepreneurship. Finally, they examine the extent to which entrepreneurship was linked to nineteenth-century immigration to the United States by analyzing several data samples.

"The recent scrutiny given to the impact of post-1965 immigration to the United States has largely overlooked an important long-term consequence: social and demographic divisions, across regions, that are being created by distinctly different migration patterns of immigrants and domestic, mostly native-born migrants. Evidence for 1990-95 shows a continuation of: highly focused destinations among immigrants whose race-ethnic and skill-level profiles differ from those of the rest of the population; migration patterns among domestic migrants favoring areas that are not attracting immigrants; and accentuated domestic outmigration away from high immigration areas that is most evident for less educated and lower-income long-term residents. These separate migration patterns are leading to widening divisions by race-ethnicity and population growth across broad regions of the country. These patterns are likely to make immigrant assimilation more difficult and social and political cleavages more pronounced."

"This paper examines the issues of who is likely to migrate and why, and what happens when people migrate, by viewing the migratory process as a strategy formulated and implemented by networks of kin for culturally surviving the redefinitions of contemporary political systems within the context of the capitalist world economy. Specifically the argument presented is that people move across the juridical boundaries of contemporary nation-states as part of household strategies designed to maintain membership in a specific social stratum. For a substantial number this social stratum is a middle class. Self-identification with a social stratum, in other words, takes precedence over self-identification with, and commitments to, nation, region or ethnic group."

This chapter "constitutes an attempt to summarize the present state of knowledge concerning the national economic impacts of immigrants on domestic workers in the United States. Section I provides a simple model of international migration that allows us to theoretically describe some of the basic points of contention in the debate regarding the economic effects of immigration. Section II develops a wide range of empirical evidence that relates to the issues raised in Section I. Section III provides conclusions." The authors advance some possible reasons for what they see as the relatively small impact of immigration on the U.S. economy as a whole.

This chapter "presents the standard economic analysis of the effects of labor migration on output and income distribution, and expands it by considering the implications of accompanying flows of financial, human, and knowledge capital." The author expands on traditional models by introducing the concepts of rival and nonrival capital used in the New Growth Theory. He concludes that "this paper has presented a framework for the positive analysis of the effects of migration on wage rates and income shares of the populations in the countries of emigration and immigration. The main and most general conclusion of the analysis is that migration raises global efficiency and income."

"We examine illegal immigration in the United States from Mexico over the period 1976-1995. One challenge is that we do not observe the number of individuals that attempt to enter the United States illegally; we only observe the number of individuals apprehended attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally. Based on a simple migration model, we postulate the existence of an apprehensions function, which expresses apprehensions at the border as a function of illegal attempts to cross the border and U.S. border-enforcement effort....We find that a 10% decrease in the Mexican real wage leads to a 7.5% to 8.8% increase in apprehensions at the border."

Current trends in international migration are examined in the context of recent changes in the world economy. The author notes that "despite tighter controls, increasing numbers of workers are moving, whether legally or not, between countries. Unskilled immigrant workers play a vital role in improving standards of living in the developed world. And in turn the countries from which they have come benefit in a major way from the earnings sent back home. Arguing that few of the fears about immigration are justified, and that increased immigration tends to mean that jobs and incomes expand, [the author] shows why governments will have to ensure the freedom of people to come and go as they choose."

"Recent studies suggest that the earnings of pre-1890 immigrants grew slowly compared with those of natives and imply that these immigrants did not assimilate well into the American labor market. Using data for Michigan and California this article estimates new specifications for immigrant and native-born earnings, and finds that immigrants who arrived as children had similar earnings profiles to the native-born. Immigrants who arrived as adults suffered an initial earnings disadvantage but their earnings grew faster than those of the native-born. These results are consistent with the traditional view that pre-1890 immigrants assimilated well."

The two areas studied in detail, central Zacatecas and northern Coahuila, are first described, and the history of Mexican-U.S. migration is summarized. The author then analyzes the effect of migration on household economic behavior in the places of migrant origin. The life histories of selected heads of migrant households are presented. The study concludes with a review of the economic impact on the community of origin as a whole.

"This paper searches first for alternative explanations about migration dynamics and, in particular, the migration transition in Asian countries. It raises the question whether increasing economic interdependence will increase labor mobility and attempts to explain the association between them with a simple model. Countries in the region are divided [into] three groups with regard to international labor migration: transitional, non-transitional exporters, and non-transitional importers. Increasing economic integration will lead to migration transition for many Asian countries, but with uncertainties concerning in particular China and South Asia."

"A methodology is devised for the empirical analysis of the determinants of outmigration of immigrants in a population. Empirical studies in this area have been hindered by a lack of longitudinal data on the characteristics of the immigrants. This problem is tackled by making use of cross-sectional data at two points in time. It is applied to the study of male immigrants in the United States. It is found that education is positively related to the rate of outmigration for immigrants from Canada, Asia and the pooled sample of immigrants. This finding suggests that the cross-sectional estimates of the growth in earnings of immigrants in the United States are underestimated for these groups of immigrants."

Several lessons from the Malaysian experience are drawn at the end to be utilized by other countries that still have to reach the turning points of the migration transition."

"Using data gathered in 25 Mexican communities, the authors link individual acts of migration to 41 theoretically defined individual-, household-, community-, and macroeconomic-level predictors. The indicators vary through time to yield a discrete-time event-history analysis. Over the past 25 years, probabilities of first, repeat, and return migration have been linked more to the forces identified by social capital theory and the new economics of migration than to the cost-benefit calculations assumed by the neoclassical model. The authors find that Mexico-U.S. migration stems from three mutually reinforcing processes: social capital formation, human capital formation, and market consolidation."

"This paper is intended to be a prelude of a study on intermediaries in international migration in Asia, based primarily on the Japanese case. In the next section, I introduce the legal framework of labor contracting in Japan....In Section 3, I pick up several actual examples of the channels of migrant workers coming to Japan. They are: (i) Japanese-descended migrant workers from Brazil, (ii) job-trainees from China, (iii) entertainers from the Philippines, (iv) `slavery' women from Thailand, and (v) workers smuggled from China by snake heads. This illustrates differences according to types of migrants, as well as common features across them. In Section 4, I try to explain the features by using simple economic concepts. Section 5 considers a broader Asian context. Section 6 concludes with a summary of major findings in this paper."

More and more proletarians from different parts of the continent searched for labor opportunities in the center of the agrarian and industrial capitalism. In several countries, including Russia, capitalists more and more actively recruited labor migrants for seasonal work. The labor migrants became a political issue as a part of the trade negotiations between Germany and Russia. Also, the Austrian colonization and political expansion in the Balkans can be looked upon in a perspective of (labor) migration. Class and ethnic conflicts coincided and escalated into an international conflict."

"This paper brings some simple general equilibrium modelling with unemployment to bear on the question of the economic effects of immigration. Employment and taxation effects, rather than wage and distribution effects, are found to be crucial in determining the impact of immigration on the welfare of factor owners in the receiving country....Certain types of immigration are shown to be Pareto improving for the receiving country, without any need for lump sum transfers. Some simple simulations are carried out to illustrate the results. The results contrast sharply with findings of previous partial equilibrium and full employment studies, and have significant policy implications."

This is a collection of six studies by various authors on aspects of contemporary Caribbean migration, particularly concerning the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Haiti, and the United States. "The volume's contributors present innovative ways of reconceptualizing and studying Caribbean emigration and return. The authors jettison the conventional, settler-sojourner model and recommend, instead, a more dynamic approach that affirms the transnational identities, processes, and structures that constitute contemporary Caribbean migration. Their accounts are enriched by an appreciation of the ways in which these identities and processes are inflected by differences of class, race, gender, generation, and locality. Finally in exploring the crucial link between Caribbean migration and economic development the contributors emphasize the social embeddedness of individual migrants' economic actions."

"The paper explores, under a wide variety of circumstances, the welfare impact of emigration. The analytical framework posited is a simple two-factor, two-commodity, two-class general equilibrium model that makes a distinction between traded and non-traded goods. The principal aim is to collect and synthesize the well-known results in the literature, derived from diverse analytical frameworks, as well as to establish a number of new ones. It is shown that pure emigration can be beneficial to the non-emigrants in the source country, irrespective of the welfare criteria adopted, if accompanied by sufficient remittances. The paper also highlights the fact that emigration does not affect all classes in society symmetrically. The division of losers and gainers depends on the volume of remittances, the distribution of factor endowments and the type of emigration."

The economic impact of immigration on the countries of North America and Western Europe is examined, with particular emphasis on the tax-and-transfer aspects. The author concludes that "though high-skill immigrants have a stronger positive effect than low-skill immigrants do...there is no group of immigrants--no matter how small their educations--who have been shown to have a negative effect upon the economy." He therefore recommends policies that allow more immigrants or provide for an auction of potential immigrants if unrestricted immigration is not an option; and he suggests developing guest-worker programs as an alternative to illegal immigration.

"It has been estimated that more than 70 million people, from developing countries mostly, are employed outside their native countries, legally or illegally, that more than a million people emigrate on a permanent basis to other countries every year, that as many seek asylum and that more than 12 million refugees live outside their native countries. These estimates point at external migrations as a widely spread and growing phenomenon, with various important developmental, economic, political and humanitarian facets. Like almost all other countries, Yugoslavia too is affected by this global phenomenon and it has been in the world migratory trends for a long time now. Its entire territory was characterized by external migrations and some of its regions particularly by migration for economic reasons."

"In France, the study of migrations has been hampered by considerable inadequacies in the system of statistical production. This paper analyses the structural factors underlying this weakness, that is inadequate freedom for publicly-funded research, overwhelming presence of ideology and lack of interest in truly empirical methods. Such factors have meant that relatively little priority has been given to migration study and have delayed the emergence of methodological reflections. Thus it was natural that the INED (National Institute for Demographic Studies), who had worked in this way, should undertake the first large-scale random survey on immigrants or foreign origin populations in France."

The chapters in this book are a selection from papers presented at a conference on labor migration held in Antwerp, Belgium, November 4, 1994; the meeting was the fifteenth annual conference of the Belgian-Dutch Association of Post-Keynesian Studies. The first chapter, by Russell King, puts migration into its historical perspective, and argues that labor migration has played a key role over the course of history. The second, by Bimal Ghosh, looks at the economic aspects of labor migration from the perspective of the sending countries. Vernon Briggs looks at the impact of labor migration on receiving countries, and examines immigrants and efficiency in labor markets, the inclusion of equity issues into public policy, and the impact of social policy. Finally, Heinz Werner analyzes the process of economic integration in the European Union and its relation to international labor migration, and considers the prospects for developing an immigration policy at the communal, as opposed to the national, level.

"This article seeks to bring the `urban' back into immigration research. Each immigrant receiving area has its own particular group of newcomers, and the economic and political structures of the immigrant receiving areas are also distinctive. Those structures are not all determining, as immigrant trajectories are shaped by the interaction between distinctive urban institutions and the specific characteristics of the relevant ethnic groups. But in the last analysis, the urban context makes a difference, as this study shows by examining the leading [U.S.] immigrant destinations--New York and Los Angeles."

In Section I, the author articulates two demographic factors that will determine the availability of human resources in Europe at the turn of the century: a continued decline in fertility that will lead to labor shortages, and an increase in migration pressures from non-EC countries. "Section II summarizes some stylized facts of aging and migration in Europe and West Germany, stating that Germany can serve as an important reference case because (i) its labor force is aging considerably, (ii) it has experienced a large inflow of immigrants in recent decades, and (iii) it seems to be attractive [on the basis of] current economic conditions. Section III outlines the European migration problem, where it is discussed to what extent this problem can be approached with lessons [from] North America. Section IV summarizes the papers in the volume and outlines what can be learned [that is relevant to] the European migration problem. Section V concludes."

"This paper attempts to identify the factors that influence motivations for migration among the migrants [in Nigeria] (push and pull factors). The empirical results from the national survey of internal migration on which this study is based showed that the differences observed in the weights migrants attached to motivations for migration were statistically significant and did not just occur by chance. Though both the push and pull factors were important in explaining migration [decisions], the push factors were more important in the decision to migrate than the pull factors. This calls for a more comprehensive and coherent attention on the push factors in government efforts to stem anti-developmental migration patterns in Nigeria."

"Migration flows for the total population have been the subject of a great number of studies. Migration flows relating to foreigners within national borders, on the other hand, have not been widely examined. And yet we can legitimately ask what the role of such migration flows is on the distribution of foreigners within the country. After a brief analysis of the mobility rates between census years for the main nationality groupings, we present an analytical method which shows that, as far as the regions in the south of France are concerned, migration flows have had a minimal effect on the fall in numbers of foreigners and immigrants registered over the last few years."

"In this analysis, data are used from the 1991 Census Special Migration Statistics to model the migration flows into the Scottish highlands and islands, from the remainder of Britain, between 1990 and 1991. A Poisson regression approach is used to identify the origins of unusually large flows into this broad destination area, and to introduce origin-based explanatory variables which help to explain the factors influencing these flows. The flows into this area which originate in Scotland are contrasted with those which originate in England and Wales and the findings suggest that middle class in-migration from southern England continues to be a significant element of population change in this remote rural destination."

"This paper maintains that the special motive force behind the current migration within China is caused by the population distribution pattern in the country and by a deformed industrial structure born of the long-followed strategy of giving priority to the development of heavy industry. Added to this motive force is the gap between urban and rural areas in terms of income, which has constantly widened ever since reform. An analysis [of] the characteristics of migration shows that the migratory process is in step with the laws of economic growth and market development and is therefore inevitable. Finally, this paper presents a prediction of future trends and possible directions of policies."

In the empirical part of the paper a regression model is estimated using annual data for 14 Danish counties covering the period 1981-1993. The migration rate is influenced by factors such as unemployment, vacancy rates and other economic factors such as wages and prices. Finally, the influence of spatial factors is discussed."

"This paper uses a typology of local metropolitan development to examine population redistribution trends in the U.S. over the past three decades. Theories of systemic maturation and urban life-cycles are discussed and evaluated. Analysis of population and inter-county migration data reveals that localised deconcentration has become an increasingly common sub-process of metropolitanisation, but that this sub-process cannot be fully explained by a life-cycle model of metropolitan development. More importantly, results indicate that metro-based migration varies significantly with local patterns of metropolitanisation. The nature of this variation implies that declining metropolitan areas tend to redistribute migrants to relatively distant metropolitan and non-metropolitan territory in a manner consistent with extended processes of population deconcentration."

The results indicate that, while some of the traditional factors influencing migration are important, others are not, suggesting that in the post-Soviet era, differentiating the persistence of Soviet-type forces from emerging market-type forces will be important for an understanding of urban to urban migration."

"An analysis of migration patterns [in India] using data (on male migrants) from the census indicates a slowing down of population mobility over the decades since independence. This article focuses on the dynamics of migration and urbanisation in the context of the changing structure of economic development." The focus is on internal migration.

"Using nationally representative data from the 1988 China 2/1,000 Fertility and Birth Control Survey, this article examines the impact of economic reform and rural enterprises on the different forms of mobility in China during 1983-88. Central to our endeavor is the measurement of the impact of economic development, foreign capital investment, and rural enterprises on interprovincial migration." The results confirm that migrants are more likely to move out of provinces with a large population and lower levels of economic development.
This is a revised version of a paper originally presented at the 1994 Annual Meeting of the Population Association of America.

"This paper examines data from a mainland Scotland survey of household migration into owner-occupied properties identified from the Register of Sasines. Plotting of movements reveals migration patterns, but of arguably greater interest are the increasingly segmented and largely unexplored household decisions which drive migration. The purpose of the survey was to reveal something of these migration processes. Overview results presented here confirm that most moves are short distance, reasons for moving differ according to distance travelled, and although employment remains important for long-distance moves, its significance has declined in favour of quality of life considerations."

The author examines "the content of the studies mentioned in the bibliography in order to [investigate]...both the most recent general tendencies of short and long distance migrations [in Italy]. Economic variables appear to have lost a good deal of their explanatory capacity on behalf of causal factors linked with the `life cycle'. Also mentioned are the main conceptual categories used in order to define the consequences of migrations on the spatial distribution of populations: so-called `atomistic' settlement models, based on administrative units, are now in competition with the growing importance of `functional' models, based on pull areas."

"This paper investigates the role of housing age in constraining residential mobility, measured as the percent of households that have moved into their homes in the past 15 months. The leading explanation for why mobility rates differ so much among regions of the United States has been the overall level of growth. The present analysis shows that the growth effect operates through both the newness of population (migration) and the newness of housing available for occupancy by all local residents. The posited explanation for this housing age effect is that progressively older units contain increasingly settled occupants, yielding fewer opportunities for in-movers in areas with older housing. It is empirically demonstrated that households in older housing have lower likelihood of recent mobility even after controlling for age, tenure, migration status, and state location of residence. The analysis reveals the temporal interdependency of mobility, migration, person age, and housing age."

"This paper uses the U.S. 1990 Public Use Micro Sample to characterize the 1985-1990 primary, return, and onward interstate migration patterns....Major migration streams, migration rates, and net migration are evaluated for each migrant type and compared for blacks and whites. Overall, the migration patterns of blacks resemble those of whites, with an attraction to the South and the Southwest and movement out of the Northeast and the Midwest. Some differences were observed, however, between the two races. Return migration rates were somewhat higher for black migrants as compared with whites, and onward migration rates were lower. Black primary out-migrants represented a larger proportion of the total flows from the southern states as compared with white out-migrant flows, and they represented a larger share of the out-migrants from the rust belt states. The major migration streams also had different regional and national patterns by race and migrant type."

This paper describes "the trends of mobility and flows of not only the internal migration of population but also the commutation of population between the place of residence and the place of work or school...for the postwar period until the early 1990s, using chiefly the statistics from the national population censuses and the basic resident registers. The main discussions are made not only upon the changes in the patterns of migratory flows between metropolitan and non-metropolitan regions or within a metropolitan region in internal migration, but also upon the association between internal migration and commutation of population within a metropolitan region, in particular, within Tokyo metropolitan region."

"Between December 1993 and September 1995 a total of 1,388 respondents [in Britain] provided useable information on 16,091 individuals born between 1750 and 1930 who had undertaken a total of 73,864 recorded residential moves during their lifetimes. These data have now been analysed and this article reports some of the key results of the project....The paper simply summarizes some of the key findings which challenge or refine existing knowledge on migration in the past."

"As New Bombay is located in close proximity to Greater Bombay city, it is expected that it would have attracted a large population from Greater Bombay. Since it is a planned city it is also expected that the living condition will be better in New Bombay....The specific objectives of the study are as follows: 1. to study the socio-economic and demographic profile of the population living in New Bombay. 2. To study the pattern and causes of migration to New Bombay and 3. To study the availability of different infrastructural services and amenities in New Bombay."

Data from the Cumulative General Social Surveys for the period 1972-1994 are used to compare attitudes of U.S. white migrants who have moved away from and to the South. The results indicate that "nonsoutherners who have moved to the South hold almost the same values as other nonsoutherners, suggesting that these migrants have not adopted southern opinions. Southerners who have relocated outside the South, however, hold attitudes that are closer to those of nonsoutherners than to those of southerners. This pattern persists when the data are segmented into two periods, 1972-1983 and 1984-1994." The authors conclude that "placed in the framework of the theoretical literature on migration, southern migrants seem to be assimilating into nonsouthern culture and nonsouthern migrants appear to be retaining their views, leaving the South a more pluralistic region."
