Moved by Modernity: How Development Shapes Migration in Rural Ethiopia
Schewel, Kerilyn (Assistant Professor of Sociology, Assistant Professor of Sociology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)
Moved by Modernity challenges the common belief that poverty and climate change are driving migration from poor countries. Through an in-depth study of an Ethiopian village called Wayisso, Kerilyn Schewel examines a counter-intuitive truth: as rural societies develop, more people leave. She shows how expanding markets, political reform, and education reshape aspirations and capabilities to migrate--while poverty and drought often keep people in place. Blending life histories, survey data, and rich ethnographic detail, this book offers a vital new perspective on why people migrate--and why they stay--essential for anyone seeking to understand the forces shaping global migration today.
