Abstract

Although the existing literature in social sciences provides considerable factual information about migration which has been gathered through refined techniques and research tools, it is often claimed that the information on migration is still mostly in unstructured state because of the lack of a general theory on the migration phenomena. Social scientists, like Hauser [6, pp. 70-851, Lee [8, pp. 47-57], Vance [15, pp. 88-94] and Wilber [16, pp. 52-61J have ~expressed similar views and emphasized the need for the development of a general theory in order to integrate the existing diverse findings regarding the migration process, and also to provide guidelines for future research on the subject.
