Book excerpt: The result we derive is that given the process of transmission and the formation of preferences, the inability of the first cohort to act upon its migration preferences does not affect the overall magnitude of migration, only its intertemporal structure. [...] In those populations in which the link between a taste for migration and the chances of survival has been severed, transmission is wholly cultural; the presence of the taste in adults will be replicated by the presence of the taste in children if the adults are present but not if the adults are absent. [...] If wages in the city F are higher than in the home village H, while the price of the consumption good is lower in H than in F, the village H individual will migrate to F (for work) in the first period and return-migrate to H (for consumption) in the second period. [...] The optimal duration of migration is shorter than the duration of life, and the returns to migration are realised when the individual returns to H. [...] The family context Consider a second possibility in which the individual is affiliated with a family and refer to the simple case in which the affiliation takes the form of marriage.

Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on the importance of return migration for the sending and the receiving economies. Although an extensive literature has analyzed immigration, much less is known about the immigrants who choose to leave the host country and to return to their home country. Who are these returnees? What is the impact of this outflow of migrants on the host country labor market equilibrium? Using a dataset constructed from the Annual Reports of the Immigration and Naturalization Services, Chapter 2 studies the outflow of migrants from the U.S. between 1908 and 1957, and the impact of international labor movements on the U.S. labor market. Between 1900 and 1930 the outmigrants were primarily low skilled workers, although in the subsequent decades the outmigrants are progressively drawn from skilled occupations. This outflow is counter-cyclical, and partially reduces the labor market impact of the inflow of migrants. The third chapter analyzes the importance of self-selectivity in return migration from both the host country and the source country perspective. I study the nature of the selection process in return migration and in labor force participation of persons born in Puerto Rico (source economy) who return from the U.S. mainland (destination economy). Return migrants are negatively selected both in terms of observable and unobservable traits. Therefore, selective return migration persistently causes an underestimation of the wage process of the stayers in the U.S. The findings suggest that Puerto Ricans are able to sort across alternative locations based on their comparative advantage in each market. The fourth chapter studies the return choice of a cross-section of Mexican immigrants. In particular, it asks what would the immigrant wage distribution be in the absence of return migration. The overarching problem of this chapter is the development of a consistent estimator for this wage distribution. A semiparametric procedure is proposed. Mexican returnees are found to be middle to high wage earners, and return seem therefore to happen once individuals have reached their desired goals in the host country. In the absence of return migration the immigrant-native wage gap would be closing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little research has been done on expatriates who return to their countries of origin in later life--an important issue in a time of aging populations and increasing mobility. Bringing together studies of older adults' migration patterns in North America, Latin America, the Caribbean, Europe, South Asia, and Australia, this collection offers the first comprehensive explanation of how and why they return to their homelands. In the process, it addresses such key factors as the strength of family ties; the quality and cost of health and welfare provisions; and psychological adjustment, belonging, and attachment to place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economic literature on international migration interests policymakers as well as academics throughout the social sciences. These volumes, the first of a new subseries in the Handbooks in Economics, describe and analyze scholarship created since the inception of serious attention began in the late 1970s. This literature appears in the general economics journals, in various field journals in economics (especially, but not exclusively, those covering labor market and human resource issues), in interdisciplinary immigration journals, and in papers by economists published in journals associated with history, sociology, political science, demography, and linguistics, among others. Covers a range of topics from labor market outcomes and fiscal consequences to the effects of international migration on the level and distribution of income – and everything in between. Encompasses a wide range of topics related to migration and is multidisciplinary in some aspects, which is crucial on the topic of migration Appeals to a large community of scholars interested in this topic and for whom no overviews or summaries exist

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruth Achenbach develops a model of individual return migration decision making, which examines both the process and the decisive factors in return migration decision making of Chinese highly skilled workers and students in Japan. She proposes to answer a question yet insufficiently explained by migration research: why do migrants deviate from their migration intentions and return sooner or later than planned, or not at all? Her study integrates factors from the spheres of career, family and lifestyle, and redefines stages in long-term decision-making processes, thereby contributing to decision and migration theory. She analyzes migrants’ shifting priorities over the course of migration, including a perspective on life course and on the impact of the triple catastrophe of March 11, 2011.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a model which rationalizes the decision of a migrant to return to his home country, despite a persistent higher wage in the host coun- try, and provides a careful analysis of the optimal duration in the host country. Three motives for a temporary migration are provided: Di erences in relative prices in host- and home country, the possibility of accumulating human capital abroad which is only earnings-e ective back home, and complementaries between consumption and the location where consumption takes place. The optimal du- ration in the host country is then investigated, and the analysis produces some surprising and unexpected results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book that takes a theoretical approach to the effects of international immigration by considering the current economic topics confronted by more highly developed countries such as Japan. Developed here is the classic trade model by Heckscher–Ohlin–Samuelson, McDougall’s basic model of the international movement factor, the urban–rural migration model by Harris–Todaro, and Copeland–Taylor’s well-known model in the field of environmental economics by introducing new trends such as economic integration including free trade and factor mobility between countries at different stages of development. Coexistence of two types of immigrants – legal, skilled workers and illegal, unskilled workers – without any explicit signs of discrimination, transboundary pollution caused by neighboring lower-developed countries with poor pollution abatement technology, difficult international treatment of transboundary renewable resources, the rapid process of aging and population decrease, the higher unemployment rate of younger generations, and the serious gap between permanent and temporary employed workers—are also considered in this book as new and significant topics under the context of international immigration. Taking into account the special difficulties of those serious problems in Asia, each chapter illustrates Japanese and other Asian situations that encourage readers to understand the importance of optimal immigration policies. Also shown is the possibility that economic integration and liberalization of international immigration should bring about positive effects on the economic welfare of the developed host country including the aspects of natural environment, renewable transboundary resources, the rate of unemployment, and the wage gap between workers.

Download or read book Human Capital Flight written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1994-12-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyses the impact of government tax and subsidy policy on immigration of human capital and the effect of such immigration on growth and incomes. In the context of a two-country endogenous growth model with heterogeneous agents and human capital accumulation, we argue that human capital flight or “brain drain” arising out of wage differentials, say because of differences in income tax rates or technology, can bring about a reduction in the steady state growth rate of the country of emigration. Additionally, permanent difference in the growth rates as well as incomes between the two countries can occur making convergence unlikely. While in a closed economy, tax-financed increases in subsidy to education can have a positive effect on growth, such a policy can have a negative effect on growth when human capital flight is taking place. Since subsidizing higher education is more likely to induce substantial brain drain, it is likely to be inferior to subsidy to lower levels of education if growth is to be increased.

Download or read book Migration Patterns and Intentions of Floating Population in Transitional China written by Tiyan Shen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates domestic migration and migration intentions in China from the individual, city, and provincial levels. Since the 1990s, accompanying the rapid urbanization, an important feature of China’s social transition is its large-scale interregional migration, which has reshaped China’s economic geography and population distribution and greatly affected the socio-economic development. The floating population, migrants working and living in the destination cities without local hukou, have aroused wide public concern in the past decades. Based on China’s national population census data and China Migrants Dynamic Survey data, this book comprehensively employs statistical analysis, spatial analysis, network analysis, econometric and spatial econometric methods to analyze the spatial pattern and influencing mechanism of internal migration and migration intentions of floating population from different levels and different perspectives. The research results of this book have significant policy implications for the urban governance on the floating population. The novelty of this book is that it comprehensively investigates domestic migration and migration intentions from the individual, city and provincial levels, combining their spatial patterns and network structures. It not only provides a wealth of case studies for domestic migration research in China, but also broadens the research scope of spatial demography by employing new methods of spatial econometrics (such as MGWR and ESF). This book is suitable for undergraduates and graduates majoring in Human Geography, Regional Economics, Urban Planning and Urban Governance, as well as related researchers and practitioners.
