Abstract

The challenges encountered by both scholars in defining not only the concept but also the process that involves the migration issue has generated some impasses regarding the formulation of the theory of migration. The discussions should not be considered in order to resize them only conceptually but also in order to understand what are the best means for people moving within and how to ensure them the full right of locomotion. The analysis of migration must address more than the study of issues of regional imbalances of jobs, should also examine the subject's personal decision on migration. In this context the approach that takes into account the influence of social networks in their understanding, introduces new elements of a more collective ideal.
