Migration of the Ukrainian Population

"Ukraine is a 'border' society, situated culturally and socio-politically between Eurasian and Euro-Atlantic poles of attraction. The influence of these two distinct cultures can be seen throughout Ukrainian society, but particularly in its migration patterns. In this book, Dr Hab. Y. Bilan analyses external migration from Ukraine using the system analysis approach combining econometric analysis and statistical modelling, historiographical and institutional analyses along with quantitative and qualitative sociological analysis with special attention to media discourse and congregational, demographic, gender and regional dimensions.

Multiregional Economic Modeling: Practice and Prospect

This volume is the result of a particularly effective research collaboration between IIASA and the Department of Regional Economics at the Free University of Amsterdam. The objective was to provide a survey of current practice in the field of multiregional economic modelling and to review its major development trends. As part of the study 50 different models were reviewed and classified, based on a questionnaire circulated to almost 100 researchers or research institutions active in the field. Thus, the project has brought together existing expertise in the area, using IIASA as a "clearing-house" for theories, models and application experience, stemming from many different countries, planning systems and modelling traditions. This book will prove useful both as a source of reference and guide to current applied multiregional economic models, and as a work of structured analysis of the field
