摘要

The aim of the study is to examine the inter-linkage between internal migration, remittances, and households’ economic wellbeing by using asset accumulation as a wellbeing indicator of households. We obtained data from 245 migrant and 330 non-migrant households in rural Jharkhand through a three-stage stratified random sampling method. The results show that migrant families economically outperform their non-migrant counterpart economically over time, with both the regularity and amount of remittances exerting a significant positive effect on households’ wellbeing.
