摘要
Out-migration, environmental degradation. and changes in land distribution are all key processes of rural transformation in the developing world. but few quantitative studies have investigated their interaction,, in migrant origin areas. This study uses survey data front the Southern Ecuadorian Andes and all event history model to investigate the effects of land ownership and environmental conditions, oil out-migration to local, internal, and international destinations. The re results[S indicate that the effects of land ownership and other factors differ strongly across migration streams. Also, negative environmental conditions and landlessness do not consistently increase out-migration as commonly assumed in the literature. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
