| dc.description.abstract | Recently the United Nations released an updated version of its Global Migration Dataset (UNHCR, 2017). We applied network science methods in order to uncover structural patterns within global migration flows observed in these data. Results revealed strong patterns in global migration, resulting from geographical and cultural constraints. Specifically, the Louvain community detection algorithm aggregated countries according with their linguistic, political, and economic affinities. Additionally, the Infomap community detection algorithm explored the distance and geography factors influencing migration flows. Both results weighted flow dynamics over a migration dataset related to the period from 1995 to 2017. | eng |
