Most studies of population movement have concentrated on the more developed national and on trends that have not been influenced by man-made or natural disasters. The experience of developing countries in the Cariabean basin,as studies after the Guatemalan earthquake of 1976 and the impact of Hurricane David in the Dominican Republic of 1979, highlights the importance of socio-economic factors in the decision to make permanent migrations after a disaster, regardless of whether the migrant had personally suffered lossses. In many cases the opportunities for personal betterment created by the disaster acted as a catalyst and accelerated a previously-existing trend og migration (AU)
