Book Synopsis Education, Economic Growth, and Brain Drain by : Kar-yiu Wong
Download or read book Education, Economic Growth, and Brain Drain written by Kar-yiu Wong and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines how brain drain may affect the growth rate, education, and income distribution of an economy. It shows that if the engine of growth of the economy is human capital accumulation and intergenerational externality, brain drain hurts the growth rate of the economy. Brain drain also has important income distribution and welfare implications. This paper argues that in addition to the static effects that have been analyzed in the existing literature, brain drain affects adversely the intertemporal welfare of the non-migrants in the present and future generations. The government may use a more aggressive education policy to counter the detrimental effects of brain drain on the economy's growth rate. One option is to invest more in education, raising the educator-student ratio, but this policy also has important income distribution implications, as it tends to benefit skilled workers at the expense of unskilled workers.
Book Synopsis Challenges to Globalization by : Robert E. Baldwin
Download or read book Challenges to Globalization written by Robert E. Baldwin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People passionately disagree about the nature of the globalization process. The failure of both the 1999 and 2003 World Trade Organization's (WTO) ministerial conferences in Seattle and Cancun, respectively, have highlighted the tensions among official, international organizations like the WTO, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, nongovernmental and private sector organizations, and some developing country governments. These tensions are commonly attributed to longstanding disagreements over such issues as labor rights, environmental standards, and tariff-cutting rules. In addition, developing countries are increasingly resentful of the burdens of adjustment placed on them that they argue are not matched by commensurate commitments from developed countries. Challenges to Globalization evaluates the arguments of pro-globalists and anti-globalists regarding issues such as globalization's relationship to democracy, its impact on the environment and on labor markets including the brain drain, sweat shop labor, wage levels, and changes in production processes, and the associated expansion of trade and its effects on prices. Baldwin, Winters, and the contributors to this volume look at multinational firms, foreign investment, and mergers and acquisitions and present surprising findings that often run counter to the claim that multinational firms primarily seek countries with low wage labor. The book closes with papers on financial opening and on the relationship between international economic policies and national economic growth rates.
Download or read book Brain Gain written by Maurice Schiff and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based on static partial equilibrium analysis, the "new brain drain" literature argues that, by raising the return to education, a brain drain generates a brain gain that is, under certain conditions, larger than the brain drain itself, and that such a net brain gain results in an increase in welfare and growth due to education's positive externalities. This paper argues that these claims are exaggerated. In the static case, and based on both partial and general equilibrium considerations, the paper shows that (1) the size of the brain gain is smaller than suggested in that literature; (2) the impact on welfare and growth is smaller as well (for any brain gain size); (3) a positive brain gain is likely to result in a smaller, possibly negative human capital gain; (4) an increase in the stock of human capital may have a negative impact on welfare and growth; and (5) in a dynamic framework, the paper shows that the steady-state brain gain is equal to the brain drain so that a "beneficial brain drain" cannot take place, and a net brain loss is likely during the transition.

Book excerpt: Economics of Education: A Selected Annotated Bibliography is an annotated bibliography of the economics of education.

The literature on developed countries is distinguished from that dealing with the developing nations. Comprised of 12 chapters, this volume begins with a list of topics for developed countries, including the economics and politics of education; educational planning; manpower forecasting; and social mobility and reserves of talent. The same topics are addressed in the second part for developing countries. The bibliography covers topics ranging from the theory of economic growth and the role of education in social change to the problems of labor and management in economic growth; the role of education in social and economic development; the economics of public education; and the economics of human resources. This book will be of interest to economists and educators.
Book Synopsis How Big is the Brain Drain? by : Ms.Enrica Detragiache
Download or read book How Big is the Brain Drain? written by Ms.Enrica Detragiache and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-07-01 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brain drain from developing countries has been lamented for many years, but knowledge of the empirical magnitude of the phenomenon is scant owing to the lack of systematic data sources. This paper presents estimates of emigration rates from 61 developing countries to OECD countries for three educational categories constructed using 1990 U.S. Census data, Barro and Lee’s data set on educational attainment, and OECD migration data. Although still tentative in many respects, these estimates reveal a substantial brain drain from the Caribbean, Central America, and some African and Asian countries.

Book Synopsis Brain Waste, Educational Investments and Growth in Transitional Countries by : Jan Brzozowski
Download or read book Brain Waste, Educational Investments and Growth in Transitional Countries written by Jan Brzozowski and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper explores the relationship between skilled migration, investments in education and economic growth in transitional countries. The brain waste phenomenon implies that skilled immigrants work abroad in jobs for unskilled labor. Therefore their qualifications are not properly used. The model developed here shows that brain waste is doubly-detrimental to transitional economies. Firstly, as described in traditional literature on brain drain, the sending countries lose considerable amount of their human capital as many skilled individuals leave the country. As the human capital stock in these countries is reduced, so is the economic growth. Secondly, there is another negative ex ante effect: the migration perspectives lower the return on human capital, so many individuals give up studying in order to migrate abroad. This "negative brain effect" additionally reduces the growth rate of the home country. Some empirical evidence confirming the predictions of the theoretical model is presented.
Book Synopsis Is Migration a Good Substitute for Education Subsidies? by : Frederic Docquier
Download or read book Is Migration a Good Substitute for Education Subsidies? written by Frederic Docquier and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2008 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Assuming a given educational policy, the recent brain drain literature reveals that skilled migration can boost the average level of schooling in developing countries. This paper introduces educational subsidies determined by governments concerned by the number of skilled workers remaining in the country. The theoretical analysis shows that developing countries can benefit from skilled emigration when educational subsidies entail high fiscal distortions. However when taxes are not too distortionary, it is desirable to impede emigration and subsidize education. The authors investigate the empirical relationship between educational subsidies and migration prospects, obtaining a negative relationship for 105 countries. Based on this result, the analysis revisits the country specific effects of skilled migration upon human capital. The findings show that the endogeneity of public subsidies reduces the number of winners and increases the magnitude of the losses.

Book Synopsis International Migration, Remittances and Brain Drain by : Serge Feld
Download or read book International Migration, Remittances and Brain Drain written by Serge Feld and published by Springer. This book was released on 2022-08-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an analysis of theoretical and empirical researches on the effects of remittances and brain drain on the development of less developed countries (LDCs). It analyzes the most recent global, regional and national data as well as the arguments for and against the emigration of highly skilled personnel and remittances, thereby highlighting policies aimed at optimizing the link between migration and development. The book examines in depth the arguments against "brain drain", namely the loss of skilled labor, wasted public investment in higher education, and reduced tax revenues. It also presents the arguments in favor, emphasizing on the transfer of scientific knowledge, the incentive effect of increased education spending, and participation in international networks. It addresses the central issue of emigration of medical personnel from developing countries and its consequences on the population.The book focuses on the effects of remittances on poverty and inequalities. They improve health conditions, raise education levels and empower women. Positive effects include the stabilizing function of remittances and the improvement of external accounts. Other effects are subject to conflicting assessments such as the reduction of labor supply and the "Dutch disease". The focus is on institutions who integrate economic, social and political incentives in order to establish remittances at the heart of development policies.The book provides a reference for students and research centers devoted to development economics, centers for international migration studies, and research units focusing on population, migration, and development.
