Resumen
BRAZ-GOLGHER, André y FRANCA-MARQUEZ, Denise Helena. Regional socioeconomic diversity of internal migration flows in Brazil. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2009, vol.9, n.31, pp.681-721. ISSN 2448-6183.
Poverty levels in Brazil present a remarkable spatial heterogeneity. Among other phenomena, migration may also have an impact on regional poverty levels. Based on this background, we analyzed the regional socioeconomic diversity of urban/urban, rural/urban, urban/rural and rural/rural flows of migrants within and between states in Brazil. In order to do so, we applied the multivariate technique of Cluster Analysis. We observed some general tendencies, as the higher socioeconomic levels of urban/urban and distant flows, and lower socioeconomic levels for rural/rural and short step migrations. Moreover, most poor migrants were in flows with rural origin and/or destiny in the Northeast Region.
