Book Internal Migration and Structural Changes in the Labour Force

Download or read book Internal Migration and Structural Changes in the Labour Force written by United Nations. Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research was carried out as activities of a project on in-depth analysis of internal migration data for selected Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) countries, implemented by the ESCAP Population Division and the UN Population Fund. The research reported in this volume was conducted for the Republic of Korea and Thailand because both countries have published a special volume of migration tables based on their 1980 population and housing censuses. In addition, survey data on labor force status and occupation prior to and after migration to urban or rural areas were available for both countries. For at least the last 2 decades the population of the Republic of Korea has been exceptionally mobile, both in terms of residence and employment. During that time the structure of the economy has changed greatly, and internal migration has contributed disproportionately to that change. 62% of the increase in employed persons in urban areas between 1975 and 1980 was attributable to net in-migration. It may be fair to conclude that internal migration has permitted the rapid growth and restructuring of Korea's economy and that measures to slow it would probably be expensive and counter-productive. The growth of the urban labor force is primarily attributable to in-migration while decline in the rural labor force is not primarily due to out-migration as most migrants to urban areas are not in the labor force before migrating. Females typically experience greater labor force mobility than males, although at lower levels. 91% of the increase in female urban employment between 1975 and 1980 was attributable to net rural-urban migration. The Labour Force Surveys in Thailand reported that the urban labor force increased by 1.1 million persons between 1975 and 1980. Net migration accounted for 13% of this increase or 142,000 persons. The impact of migration on growth of the labor force varies greatly by occupation. About 44% of the growth in the number of service workers in urban areas was due to net migration. Females in Thailand have particularly high labor force participation and migration rates relative to males. A major policy recommendation resulting from this study is that employment opportunities be dispersed from Bangkok Metropolis to other municipal and non-municipal areas.

Book Moving for Prosperity

Download or read book Moving for Prosperity written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migration presents a stark policy dilemma. Research repeatedly confirms that migrants, their families back home, and the countries that welcome them experience large economic and social gains. Easing immigration restrictions is one of the most effective tools for ending poverty and sharing prosperity across the globe. Yet, we see widespread opposition in destination countries, where migrants are depicted as the primary cause of many of their economic problems, from high unemployment to declining social services. Moving for Prosperity: Global Migration and Labor Markets addresses this dilemma. In addition to providing comprehensive data and empirical analysis of migration patterns and their impact, the report argues for a series of policies that work with, rather than against, labor market forces. Policy makers should aim to ease short-run dislocations and adjustment costs so that the substantial long-term benefits are shared more evenly. Only then can we avoid draconian migration restrictions that will hurt everybody. Moving for Prosperity aims to inform and stimulate policy debate, facilitate further research, and identify prominent knowledge gaps. It demonstrates why existing income gaps, demographic differences, and rapidly declining transportation costs mean that global mobility will continue to be a key feature of our lives for generations to come. Its audience includes anyone interested in one of the most controversial policy debates of our time.

Download or read book Labor Markets Migration and Mobility written by William Cochrane and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is devoted to three key themes central to studies in regional science: the sub-national labor market, migration, and mobility, and their analysis. The book brings together essays that cover a wide range of topics including the development of uncertainty in national and subnational population projections; the impacts of widening and deepening human capital; the relationship between migration, neighborhood change, and area-based urban policy; the facilitating role played by outmigration and remittances in economic transition; and the contrasting importance of quality of life and quality of business for domestic and international migrants. All of the contributions here are by leading figures in their fields and employ state-of-the art methodologies. Given the variety of topics and themes covered this book, it will appeal to a broad range of readers interested in both regional science and related disciplines such as demography, population economics, and public policy.

Book ILO Global Estimates on International Migrant Workers

Download or read book ILO Global Estimates on International Migrant Workers written by Natalia Popova (Labor economist) and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the right policies are in place, labour migration can help countries respond to shifts in labour supply and demand, stimulate innovation and sustainable development, and transfer and update skills. However, a lack of international standards regarding concepts, definitions and methodologies for measuring labour migration data still needs to be addressed. This report gives global and regional estimates, broken down by income group, gender and age. It also describes the data, sources and methodology used, as well as the corresponding limitations. The report seeks to contribute to the 2018 Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and to achieving SDG targets 8.8 and 10.7

Book Internal Migration in the Developed World

Download or read book Internal Migration in the Developed World written by Tony Champion and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-16 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The frequency with which people move home has important implications for national economic performance and the well-being of individuals and families. Much contemporary social and migration theory posits that the world is becoming more mobile, leading to the recent ‘mobilities turn’ within the social sciences. Yet, there is mounting evidence to suggest that this may not be true of all types of mobility, nor apply equally to all geographical contexts. For example, it is now clear that internal migration rates have been falling in the USA since at least the 1980s. To what extent might this trend be true of other developed countries? Drawing on detailed empirical literature, Internal Migration in the Developed World examines the long-term trends in internal migration in a variety of more advanced countries to explore the factors that underpin these changes. Using case studies of the USA, UK, Australia, Japan, Sweden, Germany and Italy, this pioneering book presents a critical assessment of the extent to which global structural forces, as opposed to national context, influence internal migration in the Global North. Internal Migration in the Developed World fills the void in this neglected aspect of migration studies and will appeal to a wide disciplinary audience of researchers and students working in Geography, Migration Studies, Population Studies and Development Studies.

Book Population Migration and the Changing World Order

Download or read book Population Migration and the Changing World Order written by W. T. S. Gould and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1994-09-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International population migration has recently become a major topic of renewed interest to the global community. With the ending of the Cold War, many of the physical and political barriers to migration have fallen, and as international economic disparities have widened, the incentive for movement has grown. In many countries new legislative and administrative restrictions have been imposed on the immigration of economic migrants and refugees. Population Migration and the Changing World Order is a collection of 16 papers built around the theme of how global migration systems have been affected by recent geopolitical and geoeconomic changes. It contains general introductory and concluding overviews, and three sections that focus on movements within the Developed World, from the Third World to the Developed World, and within the Third World. These case study chapters draw on original research from a wide range of geographical areas, including Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa and North America, and deal thematically with specific migrant categories, both in terms of origin and destination, workers and families, skilled and unskilled, refugees and school leavers, rich and poor. Overall, this collection offers a global perspective by geographers on a widespread phenomenon of growing concern and importance. It presents international migration in the 1990s not as a threat to economic and political stability but rather as an opportunity for migrants and states to react positively to the new and still changing world order.
