"The rapid growth of the foreign-born workforce has evoked intense debates over U.S. immigration policy, both here and in the developing world. In the United States, discussions of the immigration of scientists and engineers have focused primarily on the extent to which foreign-born professionals displace native workers. The view from sending countries, by contrast, has been that the emigration of highly skilled personnel to the United states represents a big economic loss, a 'brain drain.' " (BROOKINGS REVIEW) The author discusses his concept of "brain circulation" in which he argues that high-skilled immigration workers economically benefit both countries with whom they are associated.
