The IZA Journal of Development and Migration

This journal publishes academic articles in the closely related fields of development and migration economics. Economic development and migration are closely linked like the two sides of a coin. Understanding the drivers of emerging labor markets is essential to understanding the drivers of migration and vice versa. The IZA Journal of Development and Migration covers (i) all aspects of economic development related to issues of human behavior and/or the labor market of developing, emerging or transition countries, including both policy issues and more structural problems, and (ii) all issues related to the economics of migration and ethnicity in this context. The IZA Journal of Development and Migration has been founded in 2012. All back issues remain fully accessible through the websites of our first publishing partner SpringerOpen
