Papers are welcome on internal migration within and international migration from Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Pacific Islands, and Eastern Europe.

Push factors such as political repression and/or gang violence; climate change challenges; the ravages of Green Revolution technology; economic, political and environmental pressures on the peasantry; and globally induced economic upheavals as well as pull and other factors that induce migration flows including network-mediation and return migration, are open for examination from an anthropological point of view.

The articles should be double-spaced in Times New Roman script and comprise 6,200 to 8,000 words including bibliography.  Format and references should be in APA style.

An abstract of 100-200 words is necessary, and all works cited should be included in a references section. Self-identification should be avoided if possible.
