The purpose of the paper is to design and test a model which explains internal migration in Jamaica, based largely on the 1960 census. Suggests that urban migration was unrelated to the level of employment opportunities.
"Purpose of this article is to report on changes in wages, prices, and labor productivity in British Guyana between 1948-1962. It is the first study of this matter and is the result of the author's original statistical work. The study should be regarded as a part of a wider investigation into the features which have characterized the pattern and movement of wages, prices, and labor productivity in the Commonwealth Caribbean over relatively short periods. The purpose was to discover what these features were so that they might provide some empirical background to the problems raised by wage-policy." --The Author
