Description
This text addresses the need for an integrated multi-disciplinary study of the spatial impact and the resulting socioeconomic and political issues concerning migration. It presents two major themes - that migration is an inherently dynamic process and that there should be an emphasis placed on the importance of personal networks in shaping international migration patterns, leading to pronounced clusters of (urban) areas from which migrants are drawn and of migrant settlement.
