Emigration and Political Development
While
policy makers, international organizations and academics are
increasingly aware of the economic effects of emigration, the potential
political effects remain understudied. This book maps the nature of the
relationship that links emigration and political development. Jonathon
W. Moses explores the nature of political development, arguing that
emigration influences political development. In particular, he
introduces a new cross-national database of annual emigration rates and
analyzes specific cases of international emigration (and out-migration
within countries) under varying political and economic contexts.
