International Migration in Europe

Beschreibung

At present there is no unified treatment, drawing together models to allow a consistent and reliable set of migration flows, across countries. This text seeks to do exactly that, potentially improving policies, planning and understanding about migration processes worldwide, via the presentation of migration estimation and modeling techniques. These modeling techniques are explored from both frequentist and Bayesian perspectives. The vital concepts such as missing data and collection methods (and their possible harmonization) are discussed in depth, and there are whole chapters dedicated to both modeling asylum flows and forecasts about the future of international migration.

"Summarizing, the book is written for specialists and gives a small, but stimulating contribution to today's problems of modeling and predicting migration." (Stat Papers, 2011) "The book draws together modern statistical approaches to provide a unified treatment of [these] methods, allowing a consistent and dependable set of migration flows to be developed." (Impact, Review 2008)
