Abstract Development and migration are related because the processes of capital substitution, enclosure, and market penetration destroy the foundations of the peasant economy and create a pool of displaced persons who seek better opportunities elsewhere. Given the cyclical nature of economic growth, the persistence of international wage differentials, and the decline of transport costs, some movement abroad is inevitable. The extent of emigration is determined by the degree of economic integration between countries, but once begun, international migration tends to feed on itself and grow rapidly. Historically, among European countries in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, emigration was extensive and reliably linked to the onset of industrialization. As a contemporary example, Mexico conforms closely to expected patterns and its level of emigration is not exceptional by historical standards. Journal Information Founded in 1975, Population and Development Review seeks to advance knowledge of the interrelationships between population and socioeconomic development and provides a forum for discussion of related issues of public policy. Combining readability with scholarship, the journal draws on high-level social science expertise-in economics, anthropology, sociology, and political science-to offer challenging ideas, provocative analysis, and critical insights. Each issue includes a lively collection of book reviews and an archives section that brings to light historical writings with a resonance for contemporary population debate. Supplements to the journal also are available. Publisher Information The Population Council conducts research to address critical health and development issues. Our work allows couples to plan their families and chart their futures. We help people avoid HIV infection and access life-saving HIV services.
