The International Organization for Migration's research project on emigration dynamics in developing countries launched in 1993, brought together teams of researchers in four regions of the developing world: Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean; sub-Saharan Africa; the Arab region; and South Asia. This volume contains research from Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean where the direction, volume and composition of migration has considerably changed over the years. This is particularly noticeable in regard to irregular and undocumented migration and the proportion of women in many types of regular migration. Political instability and income inequality, violence and drug trafficking have been, and in part still are, major factors in emigration dynamics in this region.
