On the Microeconomics of Return Migration

In: Trade and Development

Author

  • Oded Stark
Abstract
Quite often the duration of labour migration is shorter than the duration of the individual’s working life. If agents choose where to offer their labour freely, though not necessarily costlessly, in a world consisting of two countries, this statement implies return migration. Why do migrants return? What determines which workers stay and which return?
