Geography of population flow according to the Migrants' Educational level
Keywords:
Population flows in Brazil, Population redistribution by educational level, RegionalizationAbstract
THE PRODUCTIVE reorganization induced new contours in the spatial redistribution of economic activities, which, in turn, influenced the spatial redistribution of the Brazilian population. This paper seeks to identify the spatial patterns of migratory flows in Brazil, attempting to relate them with the new locational requirements of the deconcentration of economic and interurban activities. For such, the main migratory networks of Brazil have been delimited, both for the more educated and less educated populations. The evidences point to an increasing channelization of population flows, mainly in relation to the networks of more educated migrants. Concomitantly, those migratory movements of longer distance, that characterized the periods of occupation of the agricultural-mineral frontiers and the movements of low human capital workers toward industrial regions, experienced a notorious weakening process.Downloads
