dc.description.abstract | The willingness to migrate and locational choice may be influenced by others? choices orplans, particularly if the ?other people?, such as family and friends, are migrants, formermigrants, or potential migrants themselves. We examine the roles ?other people? play ininfluencing an individual?s potential migration decision. In analyzing the influence of others onmigration decisions, we rely on the concepts of migration networks and herd effects. | en |
