spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/5678 Rural urban migration in developing countries : a survey of economic theory and empirical evidence Welch, Matthew Economics Bibliography: leaves 57-66. This survey focuses on the theoretical and empirical aspects of rural-urban migration as a determinant of the observed rapid urbanisation in developing countries. The theoretical work covers the neo-classical as well as alternative economic theories of migration. The empirical component covers work on the determinants of migration and attempts to test the economic theories. The more recent modelling and simulation techniques of the computable general equilibrium models (CGE) are then discussed and their merits assessed. 2014-07-31T12:21:26Z 2014-07-31T12:21:26Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5678 eng application/pdf School of Economics Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
