relocation theory

Relocation theory is a concept in geography and urban studies that examines how people and communities move from one place to another, often in response to social, economic, or environmental factors. It explores the reasons for these movements, such as job opportunities, climate change, or conflict, and the impacts on both the origin and destination areas. The theory helps us understand the dynamics of migration, the challenges faced by relocating populations, and how these shifts can reshape societies and cultures over time.
