内容説明

The author builds a new model of labour migration explaining it on the basis of three premise - firstly, that though migrants are often individual agents, there is more to migration than individual optimizing behaviour; secondly, that migration is not simply a response to wage differentials; and thirdly, that a great many migratory phenomena would not occur if the set of markets and financial institutions were complete. In the light of these premises, the author offers new insights on the strategic migratory behaviour of families, and the distribution of human capital and labour supply across markets and time. The work is aimed at researchers and graduate students in development and labour economics, development studies, demography, geography and policy analysis.
