这项研究调查的情况下,影响个人的决定是否逃离自己的家园在平民冲突。基于以选择为中心的方法来研究被迫迁移,我测试了人们即使在高度危险的情况下也会决定逃离或留下的论点。使用通过在尼泊尔的民意调查收集的主要数据,我测试了一些假设的影响因素,如暴力,经济机会,物理基础设施或地理地形,和社交网络对被迫迁移,提供一个个人层面的测试选择为中心的方法来研究被迫迁移。实证结果是一致的主要假设,在总体水平的研究,并提供更好的洞察到影响个人层面的行为的因素。除了冲突之外,还有一些重要的经济、社会、物质和政治因素影响个人选择逃离。
This study investigates circumstances that affect individuals decisions of whether or not to flee their homes during civilian conflicts. Building on the choice-centered approach to studying forced migration, I test the argument that people make a decision to flee or stay even under highly dangerous circumstances. Using primary data collected through a public opinion survey in Nepal, I test a number of hypotheses regarding the impact of factors such as violence, economic opportunity, physical infrastructure or geographical terrain, and social networks on forced migration, providing an individual-level test of the choice-centered approach to studying forced migration. The empirical results are consistent with the major hypotheses developed in aggregate-level studies and provide better insights into the factors that affect individual-level behavior. Beyond conflict, there are a number of significant economic, social, physical, and political factors that affect individuals choice to flee.
