Migration dynamics and development in rural South Africa: demographic and socioeconomic perspectives.
"This paper addresses five key questions related to migration dynamics and development in rural South Africa: (1) Which individual and household level factors are particularly important in understanding migration patterns? (2) Taken together, are sociodemographic or socioeconomic factors more influential? (3) Do present patterns of migration and remittance flows reflect strategies that connote survival, or do they represent household efforts to advance their well-being and their position in society? (4) Which segments of the population appear to gain or lose from contemporary patterns of migration and remittance flows? and (5) How might remittances shape trends in local level development and equality, or inequality?... The data source is the nationwide representative sample survey ¿Project for Statistics on Living Standards and Development' undertaken in the latter part of 1993."
