Research on the environmental dimensions of human migration has made important
strides in recent years. However, findings have been spread across multiple
disciplines with wide ranging methodologies and limited theoretical development.
This article reviews key findings of the field and identifies future directions
for sociological research. We contend that the field has moved beyond linear
environmental "push" theories towards a greater integration of context, including
micro-, meso-, and macro-level interactions. We highlight findings that migration
is often a household strategy to diversify risk (NELM), interacting with
household composition, individual characteristics, social networks, and
historical, political and economic contexts. We highlight promising developments
in the field, including the recognition that migration is a long-standing form of
environmental adaptation and yet only one among many forms of adaptation.
Finally, we argue that sociologists could contribute significantly to
migration-environment inquiry through attention to issues of inequality,
perceptions, and agency vis-à-vis structure.
