Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: This paper is organized in three main sections. The first section provides some definitions of the key terms and describes how both internal and international migration impact on development. An underlying theme is that internal migration poses the same questions for development as international migration and it brings with it equal, if not greater, opportunities. Using examples from China, Mexico and Thailand, the second section illustrates how the recommendations and best practices that apply to international migration are also valid to foster the development potential of internal migration.
