  • Title: [Trends in the immigration of Surinamese people since 1980].
    Author: Vocking J.
    Journal: Maandstat Bevolking; 1994; 42(8):6-14. PubMed ID: 12288172.
    Abstract:
    "In explaining the changes in the immigration pattern of Surinam [to the Netherlands] it is important to take into consideration that the age structure of the Surinamese population in the Netherlands and in Surinam are similar. The age group 15-44 years is relatively large. Because of family-formation migration, the age structure can be considered as a demographic pull-factor. In 1983 and 1987 the political situation in Surinam may explain increases in migration. In the last months of 1993 there was a sharp increase in immigration that cannot be explained by the political situation. The economic situation has grown much worse...particularly since 1991.
