title: Migration behaviour among the unemployed and the role of unemployment benefits.
abstract: "In this paper the migration behaviour of young unemployed people in Sweden is analysed.  The migration stream is divided into labour market migration and migration motivated by other reasons.  The results show that a larger part of total migration is motivated by reasons other than pure labour market considerations.  Explanatory factors have different effects on the two streams.  Labour market motivated migration is sensitive to local labour market conditions while migration motivated by other reasons is not.  Those who are receiving unemployment benefits are less willing to migrate than those who are not receiving such benefits."
