International migration in globalization: models and theoretical contradictions

Выпуск №3 от 27.03.2019

Just over 5 million migrants were permanently registered in the OECD countries in 2017, according to the latest estimates. For the first time since 2011, these inflows are down (around -5% compared to 2016). This is due to a significant reduction in the number of refugees in 2017 while the other categories of migration remained stable or increased [11]. The relationship between international migration and globalization generally is presented in incomplete and simplified way. Very often it does not address globalization in all its complexity, but focuses on a part of the phenomenon or a single point of view, such as the relationship between global economic growth and intensification of international migration. These problems make it difficult to embrace in all its fullness the question, yet they are a good starting point because they concern impacts, dimensions and magnitudes of globalization. Globalization is also accompanied by a concentration of economic activities in major regions of developed countries and some emerging countries. Thus, it is necessary to speak of the fears aroused in the host countries by job losses and the cultural transformations attributed to globalization. One of the five components of globalization often omitted from the analyses of migration is of skilled or low-skilled workers. The purpose of this article is to redefine this complex problem, including various aspects of globalization and their effects, which are often contradictory.
