About the product

The linkages between migration and development are multidimensional and complex. The papers presented in this publication address the issue of migration and development and discuss the relative success of various policy approaches. The areas covered include: international migration and the global agenda; trends of international migration since 1965; the discourse and dimensions of irregularity in post-Apartheid South Africa; low-skilled emigration from Mexico to the United States; and the return of overseas contract workers and their rehabilitation and development in Kerala, India. Also given some attention are United States policy responses to immigrants and refugees from Central America and the Caribbean.
