Migration and Development Within and Across Borders
This innovative collection of articles examines the too often ignored connections between international and internal migration and compares their relations with processes of development in different regions of the world. Encompassing both sending and receiving regions and countries, the essays cover labor migration to development on the level of individual migrants, their families, communities, and nations. Each article discusses the potential contributions of research to programs and policies that are intended to enhance the development.
