Migration in the 1930s
This paper analyzes in detail the role of environmental and economic shocks in the migration of the 1930s. The 1940 US Census of Population asked every inhabitant where they lived five years earlier, a unique source for understanding migration flows and networks. Earlier research documented migrant origins and destinations, but we will show how short-term and annual weather conditions at sending locations in the 1930s explain those flows, and how…
Controlling land they call their own
Formal rights to land are often promoted as an essential part of empowering women, particularly in the Global South. We look at two grassroots non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working on land rights and empowerment with Maasai communities in Northern Tanzania. Women involved with both NGOS attest to the power of land ownership for personal empowerment and transformations in gender relations. Yet very few have obtained land ownership titles. …

The Indirect Estimation of Migration
What can the age composition of a population tell us about the age composition of its out‐migrants
Preliminary findings show that the age structure of a population can provide valuable information about the age composition of its out‐migrants, and that this relationship can become a key ingredient in the proposed new method for estimating the age profile of out‐migrants when accurate data are not available. The method relies on the Rogers‐Castro model schedule to consistently and accurately represent age profiles of out‐migration, and the resu…

Disaggregating the historical demographic sources of regional foreign-born and native-born population growth in the United States
In this paper we offer a general method for analysing the demographic processes that contribute to population growth and redistribution in a multiregional system. The method incorporates a historical perspective that can be used to trace dynamic population processes as they evolve over time. It uses an open multiregional projection model framework for identifying the contributions to regional growth made by each of the principal demographic compo…
