Migration of high-skilled and STEM professionals from India
This research note examines the dimension and characteristics of the outflow of Indian high-skilled and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) professionals to five key destination countries, namely, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Indian migrants constitute a significant and growing share of high-skilled and STEM professionals in the major immigration countries of the world. S…
Age, wage and vintage
This article examines the effects of brain drain caused by the migration of knowledge workers from India to the United States of America (USA) during the pre- and post-global financial crisis periods, 2005–2007 and 2011–2013. Data from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series for the year 2018 are used to compare the different population groups in the USA and to estimate the hourly wages of Indian and White workers using Mincer regression and O…
Comparison of the economic performance of the China- and India-born immigrants with US natives
Previous studies on the economic performance of immigrants in the United States of America showed that successive immigrants possess lower skills and experience sluggish wage growth, thereby making the wage convergence with the natives almost impossible. However, analysis of variance (ANOVA) post hoc tests using data from the American Community Survey (ACS) 2010–2019 on China- and India-born immigrants revealed otherwise. Both immigrant groups ha…
Transformative perspectives on migration from and in the Global South
The Sage Handbook of International Migration
The SAGE Handbook of International Migration provides an authoritative and informed analysis of key issues in international migration, including its crucial significance far beyond the more traditional questions of immigrant settlement and incorporation in particular countries. Bringing together chapters contributed by an international cast of leading voices in the field, the Handbook is arranged around four key thematic parts: Part 1: Disciplina…
IM Special Section Introduction
China and India have the world’s two largest populations and have long been major sources of migrants to other countries. In recent years, movements of Chinese and Indians for study and work overseas have been affected by developments in policies at their chosen destinations as well as at home. The flows of Chinese and Indian students and skilled migrants in the second decade of the 21st century are occurring within quite different political and …
The UN Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration
This article focuses on the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration ( GCM ), a landmark international document that builds on the momentum of a decade of initiatives at the international level on migration governance, and its impact on Asia from the perspective of South Asia, Southeast Asia, China, and South Korea. While none of these countries voted against the adoption of the GCM , there are significant differences in how individ…
Indian Diaspora
The Indian Diaspora is now estimated to exceed 25 million people. Its genesis lay in the emigration of unskilled indentured labor to the British plantation colonies in early nineteenth century (for example, Fiji, Malaya, the Caribbean, Natal, and Mauritius), but it drew global attention when highly skilled professionals migrated to western developed countries in the late twentieth century. The Indian Diaspora represents various interest groups in…

Besides providing an overview of migration from India, the report also traces immigration of foreigners and retu…
Adversary Analysis and the Quest for Global Development
Guest Editor's Introduction
Diasporas in Development
The boundaries between disciplinary approaches in diaspora studies are becoming blurred, and the diaspora experts are increasingly adopting a multidisciplinary outlook. Keeping this in view, this paper tries to address some of the holistic issues of international development, whether local or global. Using the limited example of the skilled Indian diaspora in the United States, it tries to deconstruct the interface between a diaspora and its inte…
Exode des emplois contre exode des cerveaux, les deux faces d'une même pièce
Suite à la très vive polémique de la campagne présidentielle américaine autour de la dénonciation de la délocalisation des emplois de services, l’Inde s’est retrouvée en première ligne dans cette bataille pour l’emploi entre pays du Nord et du Sud. Alors qu’en Inde, le gouvernement commençait à célébrer le retour des cerveaux, il était accusé de favoriser l’exode des emplois depuis les États-Unis. L’analyse de cette migration du travail doit être…
Chapitre 9. Case-Study of the Indian Scientific Diaspora
Introduction The Indian Diaspora – Necessary Condition for the Emergence of Indian Scientific Diaspora Networks: The Size of the Base In a forty-seven-country ranking of brain drain arrived at on the basis of a survey whether “well-educated people emigrate or do not emigrate abroad”, and presented in the World Competitiveness Yearbook 2000, India was placed at position forty-second from the top, and sixth from bottom (See Statistical Appendix III…
Diasporas scientifiques
Depuis quelques décennies, les pays du Sud assistent à la fuite de leurs « cerveaux » vers les pays du Nord, un phénomène préjudiciable à la formation de leurs cadres et de leurs élites scientifiques nationales, inquiétant pour leur développement. Cependant, on observe depuis quelques années un processus qui pourrait compenser pour partie cette fuite de matière grise. En effet, par des apports informels, les communautés expatriées aident, conseil…
Shifting Paradigms of Globalization
Globalization of human capital through international migration is no longer about global physical presence only; it is also about global applicability of skills across various fields of specialization. This marks the main characteristics of skilled migration from India to developed countries in the twenty‐first century. The focus is shifting away from professionals in specific occupations, like doctors, engineers, scientists, architects, bankers,…
Phasing Scientific Migration in the Context of Brain Gain and Brain Drain in India
Five decades of India's experience of migration of highly qualified personnel (HQ P), as presented in this paper, broadly falls into three distinct but overlapping periods, namely: 1940s to 1960s; 1970 to 1980s; and 1990s and beyond. In the post-indepen dence period up to the 1960s, India did not really experience the trend of brain drain. The demand pattern created by the official policies to expand the university sector and strengthen the infra…

Contemporary Indian immigration to the United States — is the brain drain over
Contempory Indian immigration to the United States - is the brain drain over ? Binod KHADRIA The post-mid-1970's picture of international migration from India popularly gives the impression that its 'brain drain' to the developed countries of the West, particularly the U.S.A. declined as compared to its earlier dimensions. The impression was also consolidated by changes in the American Immigration Law wherein the emphasis had seemingly shifted fr…
