Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to investigate how contemporary urban-rural migrants choose their occupational lives and what kind of influence they have on the local communities where they move. In the research those migrants are classified into three occupational categories: agriculture, forestry and others. Migrants employed in forestry belong to the organization such as the forest owner cooperative and have limited relationship with local communities, compared with independent new farmers who must make some relationship with local communities when they rent lands and/or borrow the initial expense from local financial institutions. Taking other kinds of occupation into consideration, contemporary urban-rural migrants seek their own dramas in which they play the leading parts. It means in the opposite side that the local community which would accept new comers from urban areas has to make itself attractive for those comers' dramatization of the lives.
