This paper evaluates the stability of the determinants of immigration inflows to Switzerland in the face of changes in immigration policy. The analysis is performed on two distinct periods: First from 1981 to 1995, when worker migration to Switzerland was limited by overall quotas with no differentiated treatment across source-countries; second, from 1995 to 2003, when priority was progressively given to workers from the European Union and immigration from all other countries was severely limited to specific skills.

- Brain gain : claims about its size and impact on welfare and growth are greatly exaggerated
-
November 23, 2007 14:48
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.
- Remittances : transaction costs, determinants, and informal flows
-
November 23, 2007 14:49
The authors find that the stock of migrants in OECD countries is the primary determinant of remittances. In addition, money transfer fees and the presence of dual exchange rates reduce the share of remittances reported in national accounts. In turn, transaction costs are systematically related to concentration in the banking sector, lack of financial depth, and exchange rate volatility.

-
November 23, 2007 15:08

December 3, 2007 17:01
The authors focus on the consequences of skilled migration for developing countries.

Finally they turn to policy implications, with emphasis on migration and education policy in a context of globalized labor markets.

-
December 3, 2007 17:06

The authors try to fill this gap by constructing a new data set on poverty, international migration, and remittances for 74 low- and middle-income developing countries.

-
December 3, 2007 17:16
This is a survey and analysis-with commentary-of migration issues and the related development policies for the sending countries.
