Patterns of Inter-Regional Migration in India:1961-81, A Spatio-Temporal Analysis
Subscribe/Renew Journal
This paper argues that in a cross-section data as in India, migration by different durations of residence can provide information on temporal distribution of migration during a period. Since this information is also available for migration between different regions (or states) as well as for sectoral and gender patterns of migration, this paper undertakes a systematic analysis of the spatio-temporal patterns of inter-regional migration in India. These analyses imply, among others, 'that migration is a dynamic process occurring in time and space and its distinctive patterns between regions, sectors and gender may add new insights into the actual disaggregate migration process. These implications are hoped to providing perspective for researchers on determinants and consequences of inter-regional migration in India.
