Recent trends in Hungarian emigration
Keywords:
population geography, international migration, emigration from HungaryAbstract
This study summarises the research results of the first sixteen months of a four year long project. It is well known that the number of emigrants leaving the country has increased in Hungary in recent years. Unfortunately there are no precise data on this. That is why the fieldwork that is being done as part of this project is so important. We were looking at the following questions: what kind of factors (social, economic, family connected, etc.) are behind the large number of potential emigrations; are there any spatial differences within Hungary in terms of the emigrants’ original places of residence, and if so what are the reasons for that. Furthermore we also compared the demographic attributes of those who do not want to emigrate with those who are willing to leave for a foreign country.
