High-Skilled Migration Policy Challenges from a US Perspective
This chapter addresses the arguments and available evidence about the complex intersections among basic research, claimed STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) talent shortages, migration policy, and US economic growth. ‘Technical progress’ is a critical factor in economic growth, especially in the modern world of the ‘knowledge economy’. On the basis of this, should the US and other governments seek to increase their nations’ econ…
The Global Spread of Fertility Decline
The world's population has grown by five billion people over the past century, an astounding 300 percent increase. Yet it is actually the decline in family size and population growth that is the issue attracting greatest concern in many countries. This eye-opening book looks at demographic trends in Europe, North America, and Asia—areas that now have low fertility rates—and argues that there is an essential yet often neglected political dimension…
Political demography
The interconnections between politics and the dramatic demographic changes under way around the world have been neglected by the two research disciplines that could contribute most to their understanding: demography and political science. Instead, this area of 'political demography' has largely been ceded to political activists, pundits, and journalists, leading often to exaggerated or garbled interpretation. The terrain includes some of the most…
Falling Behind?
Viewpoint
On the one hand the techniques of demographic projection are essential: they offer powerful and objective quantitative methods that, implemented and interpreted properly, can provide a hypothetical migration commission with critical insights into possible futures - futures that might otherwise not be apparent by examining contem-poraneous data. At the same time, if implemented improperly or interpreted naively, such long range demographic project…
Political demography
The interconnections between politics and the dramatic demographic changes underway around the world have been under-attended by the two research disciplines that could contribute most to their understanding: demography and political science. Instead this area of “political demography” has largely been ceded to political activists, pundits and journalists, leading to often exaggerated or garbled interpretation. The terrain includes issues that no…

Economic Integration and Migration
The 12th Migration Dialogue seminar was held April 29-May 1, 2004 in Vienna and Bratislava. Its focus was migration in the heart of Europe, especially the impacts of EU enlargement, recent changes in Austrian im migration and integration policy, and migration issues in the Slovak Repub lic. Migration Dialogue seminars provide an opportunity for European and American opinion leaders to learn about migration issues in concrete set tings. There is a…

The Media Marketplace for Garbled Demography
Differences in cultural norms and incentives provide a powerful marketplace for garbled demography in the mass media. Journalists are attracted to expectation of dramatic shifts in politically and socially controversial domains that can result from long-term population projections. Demographers routinely caution against interpreting such projections as forecasts, and emphasize the complexities and uncertainties of demographic analyses. Yet such c…
Is Turkey Ready for Europe
LAST DECEMBER, the EU'S leaders formally agreed to expand their union in 2004 from 15 to 25 members-a historic broadening of one of the world's most exclusive clubs. Europe's politicians also set a schedule under which two more countries, Bulgaria and Romania, would be brought into the fold three years later. During the months leading up to the December decision, Recep Tayyip Erdogan-leader of Turkey's Justice and Development Party, which won con…
Migration and Development
The 10th Migration Dialogue seminar was held March 7-9, 2002 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Migration Dialogue seminars provide a setting for 40 opinion leaders from Europe and North America to learn about and discuss the major migration management issues of the twenty-first century. Seminars include day-long field trips that enable participants to observe real-world migration issues, and to discuss them with government officials, employer…
Best Practice Options
At the ninth Migration Dialogue seminar, held 29–31 March 2001 in Istanbul, Turkey, opinion leaders discussed the major immigration and integration issues facing emigration, transit, and immigration countries. Several major issues regarding Turkey were discussed. First, the effect of the Turkish Government’s modernization effort, which began in the 1920s. In the 1960s the government began to promote the export of surplus labour, with the hope tha…

Migration and Development
During March 29-31 2001 the 9th Migration Dialogue seminar was held in Istanbul Turkey. It provided an opportunity for 40-45 opinion leaders to discuss the major immigration and integration issues facing emigration transit and immigration countries. It is noted that in the 60s the Turkish government began to export surplus labor in the hopes that sending workers abroad from less-developed parts of the country would hasten the country’s process of…
The Mirage of Mexican Guest Workers
passionate disagreement on both sides of the border. In the past year, new presidents have come to power in the two countries and have given priority to addressing the issue. President Vicente Fox, who refers to unauthorized Mexicans in the United States as heroes, has pledged to negotiate both a temporary labor program to bring Mexican workers legally to the United States and a large-scale regularization of status for some or all of the millions…

The Future of Low-Birthrate Populations
Immigration, refugees, and foreign policy
The large-scale international migrations of the past decade are of increasing relevance to the formulation of foreign policy. The nature of such migrations has undergone dramatic transformations from those of the quite recent past, and the last five years have seen a series of migration “crises” with powerful foreign-policy implications. Foreign policies have had dramatic effects upon international migration trends. Usually these effects have bee…

The author examines various aspects of current immigration to the United States, including the role of the United States as the world's major receiver of refugees and immigrants for permanent settlement and the scale of current immigration in comparison with previous decades. The size of the illegal alien population is considered, and the concentration of Spanish-speaking peoples among illegal aliens is contrasted with the diversity of earlier im…

Fertility effects of the abolition of legal abortion in Romania
There is much interest to-day in governmental actions and regulations designed to have an effect on fertility. Widespread concern with the implications of population growth has led to unprecedented attention to the design and implementation of governmental policies intended to affect fertility. Unfortunately, there is very little empirical evidence of the effect of governmental action, largely because of the difficulty of interpreting the causal …
Male and female components of perinatal mortality
Analysis of vital data from five West European countries indicates that there has been a decline in the relative male risk and the sex ratio of late fetal mortality during the period 1901–1963. However, this decline is largely compensated for by an increase in the relative male risk and sex ratio of early neonatal mortality. As a result, no clear and consistent trend in the relative male risk or sex ratio of perinatal mortality can be detected. I…

The Population Threat
Commentary is provided on the challenges faced by the new Clinton administration in formulating US key foreign policy initiatives. There is an urgent need to provide balanced and effective foreign aid for reducing high fertility rates in the developing world. There is also a need to effectively monitor the large migrations of populations. Over the past 10 years, the US has not been actively practicing world leadership on population issues. 3 chan…
Birth underregistration in the constituent counties of England and Wales
It is well known that the early official vital registration data for England and Wales are not complete. Estimates are available of the magnitude of under-registration of births for England and Wales as a whole, but it is highly unlikely that under-registration was uniform over all counties. This paper presents new estimates of the degree of birth under-registration for each of the 45 constituent registration counties of England and Wales from 18…
Population and Development
The debate concerning population growth and economic development cen ters on whether efforts should be specifically directed at reducing popu lation growth or on general economic and social development. Arguments supporting the former include 1) the position that unrestrained population growth is the principal cause of social problems; 2) the position that there is a demand for fertility control and thus provision of services is needed; 3) the hu…

Skeptical Noises about the Immigration Multiplier
The first is to note that many analyses of the effects of immigration policy alternatives implicitly portray them as regulatory and selection mechanisms operating upon exogenously-determined demand for immigrant slots. Con? ceptualized in this way, applicants are seeking immigrant visas because of economic, political and other forces that are external to the immigration policy. Immigration policy does not itself affect the demand for entry; its f…

Factors affecting the sex ratio in large populations
and conclusions To summarize the findings presented here, only three of the five factors studied appear to be independently related to the sex ratio at birth. The significant negative birth-order effect, which in the first analysis accounted for a 2·6% shift in the relative odds of male birth, remained significant when adjustment for the race effect was provided in the second analysis. The magnitude of the effect was diminished by this adjustment…
Socio-economic factors and the sex ratio at birth
Using a large special study population and refined indicators of socio-economic status, the relationship of the live birth sex ratio to socio economic variables is examined. The analyses provide control for the possible confounding effects of race and birth order. The sex ratio is shown to be significantly and positively associated with socio-economic variables. The relationship is not linear, however, but instead is characterized by an apparent …

Relevance of Demographic Transition Theory for Developing Countries
The theory of demographic transition as it was originally applied to nineteenth century Europe is explained in some detail. When analyzed with nineteenth century European data the theory is empirically supported at the highest level of generality. The theory fails to explain differentials in overall fertility levels among various pretransition European countries. It also does not take into account differences in timing of onset and pace of fertil…
