Based on an unusual source a retrospective survey of migration from
1900 to 1975 this book traces the history of internal and
international labor migration in colonial and contemporary Burkina
Faso, the West African coast, and other parts of Africa. Interviews
with returned migrants elicited information about age, matrimonial
status, motives for migrating, employment, destinations, residence,
and motives for returning. The survey, which includes data on
nearly one hundred thousand migrants and on 1.5 million instances
of migration, offers a uniquely African perspective on migration in
the region
