The emergence of migration theory and a suggested new direction.
"The literature on internal labour migration is surveyed using a four-fold taxonomic scheme.  The potential migrant, as presented in the existing literature, can be viewed as a supplier of labour, an investor in human capital and a consumer of regional amenities such as public goods. The paper develops a fourth approach which treats the household, rather than the individual, as the migrating unit and which views the potential migrant as a producer of home produced commodities.  The continuities as well as the contrasts between the four approaches are discussed in the paper."
