With a focus on Poland, the author examines the following aspects and questions regarding international migration: "The intensification of spatial mobility in Poland as well as in other countries; the necessity for modernisation of migratory policy; socio-economic implications of out-migration and migratory policy; Poland--a country of transit, political asylum or immigration?; the phenomenon of transit migration in Poland; stability or flexibility of migratory policy? [and] migration as a focus of world population conferences." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND RUS)
"This article presents selected socio-demographic indicators (i.e. average life expectancy, parity and mortality rates, the number of divorces, women's professional activity rates and unemployment rates among men and women) and reviews...family benefits in Slovenia. The author compares some of the information with Poland and Hungary." (EXCERPT)
"In India where about 80 percent of people live in villages, the migration from rural areas has...a special significance. The author presents a probability model which can be used in the analysis of...out-migration." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND RUS)
The author examines historical trends and determinants of international migration in Poland. "The leading role is ascribed by the author to sociodemographic conditions....

(SUMMARY IN ENG AND RUS)
"The author analyses changes in location of the Polish population in the years 1989-1991. From the analysis it appears...that the role of the Warszawa, Lodz, Wroclaw, Krakow and Legnica voivodeships in the process of population concentration is decreasing, and...the role of Western, Northern and South-Eastern regions [is increasing].... It is difficult to say how much [current changes are] due to economic transformations and how much to the crisis in local economies." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND RUS)
