Migration patterns in Hungary: a life course approach

"This paper discusses the consequences of the ongoing transformation for migration in Hungary. We investigate migration flows towards the Hungarian capital, provincial capitals, towns and rural areas, using a life-course approach. A main aspect within this question is whether there are substantial differences in the migration patterns between the different settlement types. We present answers to questions [about] how the migration patterns changed in the period 1970-1994 and what changes in the kind of triggers resulting [in] moves occurred. The analysis is focused on different settlement types in Hungary: the capital Budapest, 18 provincial capitals, the towns and the rural communities."
