| | The literature on developing countries, migration and urbanisation is enormous and growing, with most empirical studies focusing on rural-urban and inter-regional migration. | | | In this paper, we consider the role of public sector job creation on migration and population redistribution, distinguishing between the uneven provincial allocation of public sector jobs, and the effect of being employed in the public sector, and consequences for migration incentives to private sector jobs. | | | The results of the study are expected to shed some lights on the relevance of the infant mortality-fertility debate to the Gulf countries and accordingly on the validity of applying the demographic transition theory, in its entirety, to the population situation in the Gulf region. |

| | The process of intensive deruralization or decline in total rural population of the FR of Yugoslavia in the second half of the 20th century came exclusively as a result of migration from rural to urban areas. | | | The author analyzes components and dynamics of natural movement in rural population with emphasis on the period from 1981 to 1997, regional specifics up to the republican and provincial levels, and the main differences from the specifics of natural movement in urban population. | | | The information gathered in the 90s by means of questionnaires conducted in low and high-fertility regions was analyzed to highlight the need for implementing the program in rural population and to assess the prospects of the program-related efforts pertaining to a change in reproductive behavior. |

| | The proponents of this view maintain that the role of public policy should be limited to programs that facilitate migration from the rural areas. | | | One common response from rural bankers is that the Internet could be the elixir that helps them to overcome their problems, but this remains to be seen. | | | Many rural bankers tell the same story: an elderly depositor with large accounts in the bank passes away, and the deposits that the community bank had used to fund loans and other investments are withdrawn quickly by heirs who no longer live in the community but have long since moved to more thriving metropolitan counties. |

| | Rural tax investment credits of up to $1 million would be available for every rural, high out-migration county -- those that have lost at least 10 percent of their population during the past 20 years -- to businesses that expand or relocate there. | | | Rural depopulation is so gradual, and so isolated, that it becomes invisible. | | | Subsidies tend to go to those who are least likely to bring change to rural areas, such as the elderly, who aren't inclined to reinvent the local economy, said Kotkin, a senior fellow at the Davenport Institute for Public Policy at Pepperdine University. |

| | Bad Times, by Alfred Russel Wallace |
| | But even this by no means represents the full measure of the rural depopulation; for, besides these areas in which the population has actually decreased, there is a large additional area over which they have increased less than the normal 17 per cent., and from which there must therefore have been some migration. | | | Rural depopulation must therefore be held to be a direct and very important cause of depression of trade. | | | The loss by the transference of a million of labourers and other working men from their rural homes to the great cities is thus a real and very important loss to the community. |

| | AEH: EUR.DEMO: Extreme Depopulation in the Spanish Rural Mountain Areas: A Case Study of Aragon in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries |
| | Throughout the nineteenth century, the traditional economic model of these territories broke down due to the crisis suffered by seasonal sheep migration, the non-viability of the old forms of agricultural production based on self-sufficiency and the destruction of the scattered textile industry. | | | "Extreme Depopulation in the Spanish Rural Mountain Areas: A Case Study of Aragon in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries." Rural History (2004) 15, 2, 149-166. | | | However, it is only these latter activities that have demonstrated some capacity to alter significantly the demographic tendencies, and even then they have done so in a somewhat delayed fashion and in a way limited to a small proportion of the geographical areas under study. |

| | Migration is often seen as an economic phenomenon--in discussions of labour migration from rural to urban areas or from the developing countries to the developed countries, for example. | | | However, net rural-urban migration is more likely to be derived from indirect estimation procedures than directly from census data. | | | The most common estimation approach is to calculate the net migration rate as the difference between the growth rate of a country's population over a certain period and the rate of natural increase of that population (itself being the difference of the birth rate and the death rate). |

| | Surprisingly, even though rural exodus is known to be triggered by land degradation, extant literature tends to focus on the area of destination, viewing migration as a process of urbanization, rather than from the point of origin and destination. | | | It is the impact of migration on rural areas, and particularly on farming systems and land tenure, that are the focus of this module. | | | Rural-to-urban migration is a mechanism of individual and group adjustments to development gaps created between the dynamic and inviting industrial sector in urban and pert-urban areas and the often more inert and less attractive agricultural sector in rural areas. |

| | For example, in the case of male migration to cities, the studies do not relate this phenomenon to the change of status of women in rural areas or its effects on the modernization process, questions which are of direct interest to rural development. | | | The whole area of migration and rural development is problematic and therefore merits much greater attention and research precisely because of the complexity of the relationships involved. | | | Since the number of educated rural youth is small in comparison to those with little or no education, the variations in city opportunities would have much more effect on their migration. |

| | Migration and Food Security in Namibia |
| | A recent study of Windhoek, the capital city, shows that high levels of migration are responsible for increased social and economic reciprocity between rural and urban households, and that it is the flow of food produced in the rural areas that is central to the survival capacity of poor urban households. | | | Although the country enjoys positive economic growth, there is widespread rural and urban poverty, high population growth, limited rural and urban resources, and high levels of rural-urban migration. | | | Quantify the importance of demographic coping strategies for both rural and urban households in the survival equation, evidenced through the social links and attendant reciprocal movement of children and adults between rural and urban households. |

| | Surprisingly, even though rural exodus is known to be triggered by land degradation, extant literature tends to focus on the area of destination, viewing migration as a process of urbanization, rather than from the point of origin and destination. | | | Conversely, rural out-migration patterns tend to be predominantly male in all countries of Africa, parts of Asia and the Pacific, and the Near East. | | | Another major "push" factor out of rural areas is the growing shortage of fertile arable land in the context of high population growth, landholding inequality, environmental degradation, rural poverty, and the lack of infrastructure and social services in rural areas. |

| | For example, the proportion of rural to urban migration which is temporary or targeted to particular short-term ends (such as seeking a marriage-partner or start-up funds) and the scale and impact of return migration are largely unknown. | | | High population growth rates in the rural areas help fuel migration: many of the migrants are in the prime of their reproductive years and their children are added to the city populations. | | | Migration is highly concentrated around the time of entry into the labour force, between the ages of 15 and 24. |

| | China Migration 1 |
| | In addition, the emerging urban-rural (vs rural-urban) migration exerts pressure on the government and appropriate management to reform the state-owned segment of the economy if they wish to have some control over the outflows of the highly educated and skilled workers from the formal sector. | | | This inter-sectoral migration, which overwhelmingly depends on the growth of local industrial enterprises in various forms, has important implications for the urbanisation path in China and for the restructuring of the national economy as well as for the flow of resources. | | | Given the huge surplus of rural population and the government intention to promote rural urbanisation through the development of towns and cities up to the medium size, one would logically expect the urban territories to accommodate a substantial proportion of long-term migrants with the exception of the large cities. |
