| description | Serbia is a country with a long tradition of emigration, specific economic
and political emigration context, a large number of its citizens abroad, as
well as their very heterogeneous geographic distribution and differentiated
structures. The main objective of the paper is to show that between the
region of origin in Serbia and certain destination countries there are ties,
on the basis of which migrant networks originate and spread. Over time,
networks towards some countries lose their importance or are diverted to
other directions. Through incorporating a regional approach, the analysis
includes the results of the last five population censuses conducted between
1971 and 2011. It is based on data on the number, share of emigrants from
Serbia, with regard to the length of stay abroad, educational structure, as
well as the most represented receiving countries from the regional aspects
(municipalities and the intense emigration zones in Serbia). Furthermore,
attention is paid to the possibilities and the main problems of statistical
monitoring of international migration. Such an approach has both the
research and the wider social significance, particularly because most of the
population abroad covered by the census maintain ties with Serbia, often
visit their hometowns and present an important resource for the
socioeconomic development of the country. |
