The Movement of People in Asia: Internal, Intra-Regional and International Migration
In: Asian and Pacific migration journal: APMJ, Band 3, Heft 2-3, S. 209-250
Abstract
The comprehensive overview of Asian-Pacific migration summarizes early population movements during the colonial period and describes the major types of contemporary Asian population movements: (1) environmental refugees, (2) political refugees, (3) internal population movements, (4) contract labor migration, (5) migration of permanent settlers, (6) business related movements and tourism. Projections of net international migration are given. Population growth, employment absorption and emigration pressures are likely to contribute to a large mobility potential for Asia, with significant implications for Australia.
