About the Book
Migration, health, and development are three deeply interconnected themes in today’s global development discourse. This scholarly volume provides a comprehensive analysis of these issues using both micro- and macro-level data derived from national censuses, large-scale surveys, and focused field studies, primarily in Asian countries with a special emphasis on India.
The book comprises 20 research papers organized into five critical sections:
-
Migration and Urbanization
-
Population, Development and Environment
-
Ageing
-
Demography of Ethnic Groups
-
Population Policies and Programmes
Each section addresses vital contemporary concerns, making this volume an invaluable reference for population scientists, urban planners, policymakers, social scientists, and administrators involved in development planning and demographic studies.
