| Summary: | International migration of educated labor is an ever increasing phenomenon, which
at best bene? ts the immigrant himself, the sending country and the receiving country
alike. After an overview of such bene? ts, this article will focus on the limitations
of international labor migration -induced bene? ts for the country of origin. Three
aspects that might lessen the actual bene? ts of global migration of the educated for
the sending country will be elaborated: the hazards of emigration from, of the lack of
migrant return to and of money remittances to the developing sending country. When is
emigration acutely hazardous for a small developing country, how often does migrant
return occur, and what is the actual effect of money remittances? Finally, could such
limitations to sending country bene? ts of international migration be eliminated or
minimized through international cooperation? |
