Book Rural Urban Migration in Vietnam

Download or read book Rural Urban Migration in Vietnam written by Amy Y. C. Liu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume provides a comprehensive overview of rural-urban migration in Vietnam. It addresses a wide range of important topics, including Vietnam’s household registration system (ho khau), migration trends, remittance behaviour and social networking. In addition, it examines migrants’ earnings, their children’s schooling, housing issues and their families’ consumption behaviour in their destination cities. The book is mainly based on new data from the Australian National University's ‘Study of Rural-Urban Migration in Vietnam with Insights from China and Indonesia’ (VRUM) project, which identifies migrants from the large-scale, representative ‘Vietnam Household Living Standards Survey’ 2012 (VHLSS2012). In addition to the data from the VRUM project, the book draws on other widely used data sources to provide a comprehensive picture of rural-urban migrants in Vietnam. By highlighting the issues and challenges brought about by the large-scale rural-urban migration in Vietnam, the book helps researchers and policymakers more effectively formulate policies to respond to those challenges. Moreover, Vietnam’s experience can serve as lessons learnt to other transitional/developing countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost all developing countries are plagued by the problem of peasants crowding into cities in search of a better life. For scholars of and visitors to Vietnam, it is increasingly clear that the problem has also arrived in this recently freed socialist economy. Is it going to get worse before it gets better? What is the official response to the social disruptions and friction it causes? This ISEAS study completed at the end of 1993 is one of a few early surveys of this urban drift, and provides empirical data on the spontaneous migration to Hanoi from its rural environs. It also draws on a vast corpus of journalistic and academic literature in Vietnamese as well as government documents and decrees. The final work provides a picture of the migration pattern, the lifestyle of migrants in the city, the institutional changes that have been energized by this movement, and its many political and socioeconomic implications.

Book Shocks  Development Policies  and Rural Urban Migration in Vietnam

Download or read book Shocks Development Policies and Rural Urban Migration in Vietnam written by Manh Hung Do and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behaviors of migrants towards shocks are worthy to study to understand their reflection on external unexpected events to narrow the gap in the literature of migrations. Besides, rural development policies are believed to help reverse the rural-urban migration. This research paper was aimed at taking these critical points from literature into examination for justifications such as impacts of shocks, rural development interventions, and other determinants on migrants' decision to return and staying duration in the cities with an empirical analysis from the unique Thailand - Vietnam Socio-Economic Panel (TVSEP) data. The estimation results from the two-step Heckman model show that demographic shocks positively affect migrants' decision to return, while social shocks affecting the migrants during the time in the cities are negatively impact their decision to return. In the outcome stage of migration period, the result signifies that economic shocks positively influence migrants' staying period in the cities. Besides, migrants from poor communes with poverty reduction projects are more unlikely to return. This implies that current rural development policies in Vietnam with a goal of poverty reduction might not be attractive or efficient enough to fill the gap between the rural and urban regions.

Book Impacts of Rural urban Migration on Family Relationships and Gender Relations in Mother migrant and Father left behind Families in Vietnam

Download or read book Impacts of Rural urban Migration on Family Relationships and Gender Relations in Mother migrant and Father left behind Families in Vietnam written by Bich Ha Dao and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Doi Moi in 1986 there has been an increasing demand for female labour in urban Vietnam. In response to that demand many rural women, including already married women with children, have left their families behind to engage in labour migration. They constitute an important segment of the labour force, but have received little attention in the literature. With a view to filling this gap in the literature, this study seeks to investigate the link between rural-urban migration and relationship breakdown and cohesion in conjugal and parent-child relationships in mother-migrant/father-left-behind families. It also seeks to understand how gender roles, gender identities and social norms shape the experiences of migrant mothers and left-behind fathers, and in turn how rural-urban migration has changed gender relations, gender roles and expectations, and intra-familial power within their families. The study employs both secondary data sources and primary data collected through fieldwork. First, to achieve a better sense of the importance of married female migrants who migrate alone in the contemporary migration context in Vietnam, four secondary data sources were made use of. They were 1. The 2009 Census 2. The 2008, 2010 and 2012 Vietnam Living Standard Surveys 3. The 2004 Vietnam Migration Survey and 4. The 2008 Survey on the Impact of Rural-Urban Migration. Unfortunately, all except the last data source have limitations which prevent accurate identification of the particular group of women of interest. Moreover, from the 2008 Survey on the Impact of Rural-Urban Migration only a small number of married female lone migrants were found. Although this number was not large enough for detailed quantitative analysis, each of the women still provided valuable information and were carefully treated as potential case studies. Second, 72 in-depth interviews were carried out with married female lone migrants, left-behind husbands and children, extended family kin and local leaders. Cases from the secondary data source and from the fieldwork were used together to explore the research topic. The study found that spatial separation through migration often imposed emotional strains on migrant women and their families. However, it did not seem to have caused serious impacts on their wellbeing and their family relationships because migrants and their left behinds usually put a great deal of effort into maintaining love, affection, nurturing, validation, moral support and cohesion within their families. The study also found that the migration of married females tended to be a strategy of rural households to diversify income, provide a buffer against economic shocks faced in home villages and fulfil reproduction responsibilities. The migration on decision, moreover, was shaped by social norms. It consequently created a more equitable division of labour within the household and shifted gender and power relations in a more egalitarian direction. These changes did not appear to have led to serious family tension or fragmentation, because migrant women and their husbands adopted various strategies to minimize strain on their family relationships and disruption to their families' cohesion.

Book Urban Disasters and Resilience in Asia

Download or read book Urban Disasters and Resilience in Asia written by Rajib Shaw and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2016-01-06 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Disasters and Resilience in Asia presents the latest information on the intensity and frequency of disasters. Specifically, the fact that, in urban areas, more than 50% of the world's population is living on just 2% of the land surface, with most of these cities located in Asia and developing countries that have high vulnerability and intensification. The book offers an in-depth and multidisciplinary approach to reducing the impact of disasters by examining specific evidence from events in these areas that can be used to develop best practices and increase urban resilience worldwide. As urban resilience is largely a function of resilient and resourceful citizens, building cities which are more resilient internally and externally can lead to more productive economic returns. In an era of rapid urbanization and increasing disaster risks and vulnerabilities in Asian cities, Urban Disasters and Resilience in Asia is an invaluable tool for policy makers, researchers, and practitioners working in both public and private sectors. - Explores a broad range of aspects of disaster and urban resiliency, including environmental, economic, architectural, and engineering factors - Bridges the gap between urban resilience and rural areas and community building - Provides evidence-based data that can lead to improved disaster resiliency in urban Asia - Focuses on Asian cities, some of the most densely populated areas on the planet, where disasters are particularly devastating
