Tackling the Policy Challenges of Migration
This book contributes to the current debate on migration policy, focusing on three main elements in the standard migration policy dialogue: the regulation of flows, the integration of immigrants and the impact of labour mobility on development. In particular it argues that the current governance of international migration is both insufficient and inefficient. Restrictive and non-cooperative migration policies not only affect development in sendin…

Economic Crisis and Global Supply Chains
A Fantastic Rain of Gold
While the pre-1914 mass migrations have been widely studied, the related pattern of emigrants' remittances is still largely untouched. This article aims at filling this gap by analyzing the contribution of remittances to financial stability. In the optimum currency area theory, labor mobility can ease the adjustment mechanism for countries under fixed exchange rate regimes. We confirm this claim by showing that emigrants' remittances reduced the …
Welfare State and Labor Mobility
The rapid decline of German emigration before World War I constitutes a puzzle that traditional explanations have difficulty in solving. The article shows that the social legislation implemented by Bismarck during the 1880s—the most developed at the time—played a key role in this process. Indeed, candidates for migration considered not only the gap between “direct wages” (labor earnings) in the United States and Germany, but also the differential…
International migration and development
Remittances to Colombia have grown rapidly over the last few years, and their economic significance is increasing apace. This article provides a detailed analysis of the economic and social effects of these currency flows and draws attention to the potential long-term risks involved. Accordingly, it analyses trends in remittances in Colombia over the last few years, paying special attention to their importance to the country’s economy and the soc…
Causes and implications of the current mass emigration process in Latin America
Since the mid-1970s, most Latin American countries have become net exporters of labour and this trend has accelerated over the past decade. Wide differences in income with industrialised countries, a low level of social investment and the existence of a large national community already established abroad are all factors that are conducive to the emigration of workers. Both geographic and linguistic proximity also play a significant role in this p…
