Descrizione del libro

This 1970 collection of specially commissioned papers develops the theory of both long- and short-distance migration. The movement of human population tended in the past to be considered primarily in terms of economic interest. It embraces, however, many complex aspects of human aspirations and changing circumstances that are developed in the initial decision to migrate.
