Country | : | China |
Authors | : | Pan-pan Liu || Guang Feng |

Abstract: Human Development Index (HDI) is a widely used index to measure the level of human development, which usually covers three aspects: health, education and economy. But it can't fully reflect the level of human development in a region. Since social security is also an important index related to one of the most basic human needs, this paper selects crime rate as the fourth index of the original HDI indicator system, applies the entropy weight method to determine the weight of each sub-index, and finally forms a New Human Development Index (NHDI) including crime rate. Empirical study using data from 31 regions in China mainland shows that NHDI not only takes the regional crime rate into account, but also reflects regional differences. Therefore it is better than the original HDI...

Title | : | Mobility, Migration and Its Discontents: Insights from Nigeria |
Country | : | Nigeria |
Authors | : | Franca Attoh, PhD |
: | 10.9790/0837-2403094354 |
Abstract: The paper interrogates the phenomenon of mobility, migration and its discontent using insights from Nigeria. International migration is a growing phenomenon both in its range and complexity. The United Nations Department of Economics and Social Affairs estimates that there are over 214 million international migrants worldwide representing three per cent of the global population. The growing trend is from developing economies and countries in conflict to the developed countries of the world. The social, economic and political underpinnings are diverse and often not manifest even though they could be linked to globalization. These factors include the asymmetry in the international political order, demand for cheap labour in the developed countries, ease of international transportation and availability of information technology. In addition, countries such as Nigeria have developed........
