Abstract

This chapter evaluates an important example of out-migration and depopulation, in the case of a mountain village, Kamitsue Village in Japan. The village locates in mountainous environment and has suffered from severe depopulation since the 1960s. Here the author analyzed individual attributes of out-migrants, the flows, and their surroundings. He has discovered influences of life cycle and family cycle to the migration patterns there, and has recognized a differentiation of mobility patterns among family members. In addition, he has found a tight structure of remoteness consisted of physical, economic and social remoteness from capitals and central places.
