Beskrivning

Presenting research and a multidisciplinary analysis of the spatial aspects of migration, this text considers the spatial results of two diametrically opposed policies: planning from above to settle the North African and Asian newcomers in the 1950s, and planning by market forces for immigrants from the former Soviet Union in the 1990s. The text also analyzes internal migration within Israel, which is an outcome of the regional disparities produced by immigration. Moreover, it compares the empirical findings in Israel with international trends, and its analysis may serve as a foundation for setting spatial immigration policy.
