Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores interstate migration in the US as a factor influencing local child welfare provision, focusing particularly on Iowa and the period from 1870-1920. The author argues these migratory patterns disproportionately affect the quality of parenting in destination communities, specifically those in rural areas. The author develops new methods to measure interstate migration and apply them to US data. The analysis reveals a selective character to emigration from the rural Midwest, with younger, more ambitious, energetic individuals more likely to leave. This selective migration has serious consequences for the quality of local parenting in the rural communities most affected by emigration.
