Discussion
The Migration Transition Theory put forth by Zelinsky is based upon the __________ .
Answer: A
Zelinsky's theory is based on the Demographic Transition Model.
In 1971 the geographer Wilbur Zelinsky proposed the hypothesis of the mobility (migration) transition, which links each stage of the demographic transition, from high birth and death rates to low ones, to a typical pattern of migration, such as rural-to-urban movement in the middle stages.
Weber's least cost theory explains industrial location, Rostow's model sets out stages of economic growth, and Mackinder's heartland theory is a theory of geopolitics. None is the basis of the migration transition.
