Reviews

'Although migration has become synonymous with international migration, this volume demonstrates that internal migration remains as potent a force as ever in shaping the lives of individuals and communities. In so doing, this volume reflects the full diversity of methods and topics in the contemporary study of this subject area and reclaims the rightful place of the study of internal migration within the field of migration studies.' Thomas J. Cooke, University of Connecticut, USA
