These 21 national case studies of internal migration were
written especially for this unusual and useful volume. . . . The
resulting blend of the general and the particular, especially when
viewed across the 21 countries, will be useful to a wide range of
basic and applied social scientists. "Choice"
Social and economic change within countries can often be traced
through the movement of population at the national level. The
abandonment or return to inner cities, the volume of movement
within and between rural and urban areas, the movement of the
elderly, all of these factors and others combine to give us an
important picture of national change.
The "International Handbook on Internal Migration" is a
compilation of 21 case studies, each focusing on a different
country, each written specifically for this book by an expert in
the field. Extensively illustrated with tables and figures, the
book will serve as an invaluable reference text. It will also be of
great interest to students of the social sciences, especially
sociology, economics, and geography.
