title: Inter-provincial migration in Turkey and its socio-economic background:  a correlation analysis.
abstract: An analysis of the socioeconomic factors affecting inter-provincial migration in Turkey is presented.  The data concern the period 1970-1975 and are derived from census data on provincial age structure.  The results suggest that the level of urban wages has little impact on migration and that push factors in the region of origin are significant.  The findings also indicate that "it is not only...urban job creation that promotes migration but the stock of job opportunities as well.  These stock variables of employment opportunities correlated significantly higher with migration rates than the flow variables of job creation."  (summary in TUR)
