Abstract
The aim of this paper is to identify the determinants of migration within Russia by distinguishing between eastern (Asian) and western (European) regions. Using Russian official data for the observation period 2001–2010, we estimate non-spatial panel and spatial panel lag of X model regressions for migration rates of 78 Russian regions with fixed effects. We apply in-migration, out-migration, and net-migration measures as dependent variables and distinguish between internal and external migration. The results indicate that migrants react to changes in labor demand in eastern regions, while wealth makes western regions attractive. Furthermore, universities hinder out-migration of eastern regions, but the share of tertiary educated persons has no measurable effect.
期刊介绍：
Review of Urban & Regional Development Studies (RURDS) focuses on issues of immediate practical interest to those involved in policy formation and implementation. Articles contain rigorous empirical analysis, with many emphasizing policy relevance and the operational aspects of the academic disciplines, while others focus on theoretical and methodological issues. Interdisciplinary and international in perspective, RURDS has a wide appeal: in addition to scholars, readership includes planners, engineers and managers in government, business and development agencies worldwide.
