Skilled Migration: The Perspective of Developing Countries

Abstract

In this paper we focus on the consequences of skilled migration for source (developing) countries. We rst present new evidence on the magnitude of the "brain drain" at the international level and then discuss its direct and indirect eects on human capital formation in developing countries in a unied stylized model. Finally we turn to policy implications, with emphasis on migration and education policy in a context of international migration.
