Indian skilled migration and development. To Europe and back

This volume offers new empirical evidence on Indian skilled migrants living in European countries, which have become important destinations in the global competition for talent, and on returnees in India. Making use of an interdisciplinary and multi-level analytical framework, which simultaneously includes diaspora interventions and return migration as its main channels of participation, the studies included in this volume offer original insights into the dynamics of skilled migration from India and its effects. The studies highlight the determining factors required to channel possible contributions towards broad-based development and they suggest policy options for the home and host countries.
