Migration has emerged as an important issue in contemporary global
politics and in the discourse around human development. This book
highlights the role of migration in socioeconomic development and
its interdependence with urbanization, employment, labour and
industry. This volume identifies the challenges which migration and
the subsequent dynamism in population and spatial parameters pose
to land-use patterns, ecology, social politics and international
relations. Through a study of migration patterns and trends in
different parts of India, this collection analyzes the relationship
of migration with social and occupational mobility, poverty and
wealth indices, inequality, distribution of resources and
demographic change. It also explores policy measures and frameworks
which can bring migration into the fold of national development
strategies. Timely and comprehensive, the book underscores the
importance of migration and urbanization, sustainability and
inclusivity to economic growth and development. It will be an
essential read for scholars and researchers of migration studies,
political studies, sociology, urban studies, development studies
and political sociology.
