Les migrations internes en France de 1982 à 1990. Comparaison avec les périodes antérieures

Baccaini (Brigitte), Courgeau (Daniel), and Desplanques (Guy).- Internai Migration in France from 1982 to 1990. A Comparison with Previous Periods After a general increase in geographical mobility which occurred at all area levels (from place of residence to region), between 1954 and 1972 a decline between 1975 and 1982 slowed down between 1982 and 1990. The changes appear more striking and more complex when trends in net movements within regions and a fortiori figures of in-migration and out-migration are studied. In some regions it proved possible to identify similarities in migration behaviour: e.g. the experience of the Ile de France and that of Western France. Different patterns were found in the Northern regions and the outer areas of the Paris region. Finally, in a significant block in the Southern region, there was marked synchronization of behaviour throughout the period from 1954 to 1990.
