Immigrants from the European socialist countries in the U.S.A. and Canada: socio-demographical aspects.
The author analyzes changes in the rate of migration and choice of destination among migrants from socialist countries in eastern and southern Europe to the United States and Canada during the period 1941-1990.  "The data presented show that in the period in question the immigrants from the European socialist countries constituted only 2.9% of the total number of immigrants to the U.S.A. while their proportion in the total number of immigrants to Canada was 6.6%.... In comparison with the decades 1961-70 and 1971-80, in the middle of the 80's the proportion of immigrants from the examined countries in the U.S.A. and Canada increased.... The proportion of Poles among the emigrants from the East European countries in the U.S.A. and Canada is comparatively the highest...." (SUMMARY IN SCR)
