Produktbeschreibung
The literature on international migration in Ghana indicates an extensive research on the emigration of labour who moved out for greener pastures with the economic downturn in the mid-1960s. Meanwhile, paucity of empirical evidence exists on the phenomenon of return migration. That is, while there is growing evidence on the changing dynamics of out-migration from Ghana, characterized by changing origin regions, destination patterns and actors of migration, research on returning migrants remains relatively scarce. This study, therefore, strove to fill a lacuna in the Ghanaian migration literature by providing some quantitative evidence regarding the determinants of return migration of Ghanaian migrants, the nature of their return decision-making process and the socio-economic implications of their return to Ghana. The book is useful to researchers in the field of migration issues, policy-makers and the general public.
