[Indirect estimates and data on migration in Brazil:  a conceptual and methodological appraisal of recent census information].
Problems related to the analysis of data from the 1970 and 1980 censuses of Brazil concerning migration are explored.  The author first notes that the 1980 census used new methods of data collection that make comparisons with previous censuses difficult.  Procedures to overcome these problems are suggested.  The inclusion for the first time in 1980 of data on intra-municipal migration is noted.  "A procedure is proposed to estimate the intra-municipal migration during the decade, and to add it to estimates of other types of migration, in order to avoid double counting.  Internal migration estimates for the 1960s and 1970s are presented for three States (Pernambuco, Minas Gerais [and] Sao Paulo).  Special attention is paid to the different concepts implied by estimates obtained through direct and indirect measurement."  (summary in ENG)
