Poverty and Migrations: Dynamics of Global Economic Development

This is a review of the book; Poverty and migrations: Dynamics of global economic development (2022), by the authors Imelda Ortiz, Jorge Martínez and Marlen Hernández, published in 2022 by the University of Almería, Spain. In this work, the authors briefly recount the characteristics and meanings that migration has had in the history of humanity but focus, above all, on contemporary migration. They define migration essentially as a product of poverty and, through a detailed statistical analysis by continental regions and subregions, they show us the contemporary flows and monetary remittances that take place in the current world as a product of the phenomenon described.
