The Human Face of Global Mobility: International Highly Skilled Migration in Europe, North America and the Asia Pacific,: (Vol.8, Comparative Urban and Community Research)

Abstract

Alongside fl ows of trade and capital, the free movement of professionals, technical personnel, and students is seen as a key aspect of globalization. Yet not much detailed empirical research has been completed about the trajectories and experiences of these highly skilled or highly educated international migrants. What little is known about these forms of global mobility, and the politics that surround them, contrasts with the abundant theories and accounts of other types of international migration-such as low income economic migration from less developed to core countries in the international political economy.
