[Internal migration in Italy: an overview of studies in the early 1990s].

The author examines "the content of the studies mentioned in the bibliography in order to [investigate]...both the most recent general tendencies of short and long distance migrations [in Italy]. Economic variables appear to have lost a good deal of their explanatory capacity on behalf of causal factors linked with the ¿life cycle'. Also mentioned are the main conceptual categories used in order to define the consequences of migrations on the spatial distribution of populations: so-called ¿atomistic' settlement models, based on administrative units, are now in competition with the growing importance of ¿functional' models, based on pull areas."

Socio-economic and urbanization profiles of internal migration in Egypt: a canonical correlation analysis.

"Data on in- and out-migration in Egypt by governorate and on variables believed to interact with migration are examined. The purpose is to identify the dimensions through which the basic demographic phenomenon can be rationally structured. This objective is approached through a general multivariate analysis technique known as canonical correlation analysis....A number of variables believed to act as determinants of migration are used and arbitrarily classified into four groups to represent four distinct migration profiles, namely, sociodemographic, economic, urbanization, and health profiles.... The analysis shows that the economic profile of migration is the most pronounced one of the four profiles examined."
