Preface for Symposium on Globalization and the Brain Drain in the Journal of Development Economics, 2010

摘要

The papers in this special issue were all presented at a conference on "Globalization and the Brain Drain: Theory, Evidence and Policy", organized at Bar-Han University and the Hebrew University on December 9-11, 2008, in Ramat Gan and Jerusalem, Israel, with the support of the Adar Foundation, the Schnitzer Foundation for Research on the Israeli Economy and Society, and the Ben-Porath Fund, Maurice Falk Institute for Economic Research in Israel. Eric Gould and Hillel Rapoport served as organizers. The symposium on "Globalization and the Brain Drain" in this journal, edited by Gordon Hanson and Hillel Rapoport, follows by 35 years a symposium that I edited on practically the same subject in this very journal in 1975 (Vol. 2. No. 3).
