Sažetak
This study aims to investigate the differences in regional migrations in the European Union and to determine the regional socio-economic factors that may influence these differences. After providing an insight into the theoretical background through a review of previous studies, a discriminant analysis conducted on a sample of 240 European NUTS 2 regions is presented. The study confirms that the share of population with tertiary education, the perceived level of corruption, the regional EU Social Progress Index and the unemployment rate of young people are the factors that discriminate between groups of regions in the EU based on their rate of net migration. The paper contributes to studies about the differences in regional migrations and the driving factors of migrations. The results can be of interest in future investigations about policy measures aimed at solving the problems of regional migrations, which should include a broader framework (with significant determinants of regional development) in managing migrations.
