{"product_id":"caribbean-migration-elizabeth-hope-9789766401269","title":"Caribbean Migration","description":"The book contributes to international migration at a theoretical level, destroying the myth of migration being purely the result of poverty and over-population and rejecting explanations based on \"push-pull\" models and the unilateral flow inherent in such models. Instead it presents a conceptualization of Caribbean migration that is fundamentally circular and self-perpetuating, and which has become part of the institutional framework of Caribbean societies.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMigration behavior is a response to Caribbean circumstances and is an intrinsic part of the formation of the image of self and life chances of the individual. This image, conditioned by the particular location of the individual in relation to the national and international system, is the key element in explaining the complex interplay of global, societal and personal factors resulting in the propensity to move and in the actual move itself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Hope\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9766401268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789766401269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of the West Indies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 6.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Elizabeth Hope","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46372488773887,"sku":"9789766401269","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b3755450-d392-4bdf-ad3c-c8992506f20f.jpg?v=1732726084","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/caribbean-migration-elizabeth-hope-9789766401269","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
