| description |
This is a survey and analysis-with
commentary-of migration issues and the related development
policies for the sending countries. "Migration and
development" is considered an unsettled and unresolved
area for good reason. The policy issues are surprisingly
deep and run to basic issues such as the nature of
development as opposed to simple poverty reduction.
North-north migration (between industrial countries),
south-south migration (between or within developing
countries), and north-south migration (from developing to
industrial countries) are all covered although the paper
focuses on the north-south variety. Attention is paid to the
question of the dynamic mechanism underlying migration being
one of convergence or divergence. Very often the policy
issues push one outside what would be narrowly considered as
"migration studies." For example, policies to
reduce the brain drain go directly to the issue of
educational reform in developing countries while policies to
increase the developmental impact of remittances quickly
carry one into the nature of business development itself.
Ronald Dore's ideas on educational reform are outlined
as a policy approach to the brain drain problem. Jane
Jacobs' ideas on development are outlined in greater
length as they are little known in development economics and
yet directly address the policy issues raised by migration
and development. |
