About this book

Impacts on economic development emanating from international, interregional or seasonal migration movements are discussed controversially both in the public and in the scientific community. While we expect overall global gains from increased integration of labor markets, migration produces a series of distributional effects that are not yet fully understood. Especially the topical discussion about selective migration that has been enforced by the industrialized countries’ increased application of selective standards generating a bias of immigration policies toward skilled applicants is characterized by a lack of consensus. Additionally, involuntary migration in cases of conflict and/or prosecution induces considerable humanitarian, social and economic challenges.
