Genus
|January 1, 1992
Summary
This study introduces two key indicators to measure inter-regional mobility by analyzing net migration patterns in Italy from 1955-1989. These indices help quantify the extent of population movement between different regions.
Area of Science:
- Demography
- Human Geography
- Sociology
Context:
- Examines internal migration patterns within Italy between 1955 and 1989.
- Focuses on the relationship between partial and total net migration figures across Italian regions.
Purpose:
- To develop and identify novel indicators for assessing inter-regional mobility.
- To analyze the significance of total net migration relative to all migratory exchanges between territorial units.
Summary:
- Introduces the index of net regional migratory interchange and the index of net total migratory interchange.
- Utilizes data from Italian regions spanning 1955-1989 to calculate and evaluate these indices.
- Investigates the interplay between localized and broader migration flows.
Impact:
- Provides a quantitative framework for understanding regional population dynamics.
- Offers tools for policymakers and researchers studying internal migration and its spatial impacts.
- Enhances the analysis of demographic shifts and their socio-economic consequences in Italy.
