Circular Migration: A View from Destination Households in Two Urban Informal Settlements in South Africa
基于南非两个非正规定居点移民数据,分析双重家庭归属与返乡意愿,发现双重家庭归属普遍但返乡意愿不足一半,探讨其对循环迁移测量的影响。
This article analyses dual household membership and the return intentions of migrants, using data collected from migrants living in two informal settlements in South Africa. While dual household membership is very common among the migrants we surveyed, less than half of these migrants wanted to return to their other household in the future. We explore the correlates of dual household membership and intended return migration and we consider the implications of our findings for measures of circular individual migration using existing cross-sectional datasets.
