Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"This book offers a wealth of insights into managing labor migration, one of the greatest challenges facing nation states today."—Brunson McKinley, Director General, International Organization for Migration
"This remarkable book reflects decades of study and reflection by experts working with the International Labor Organization. The scope of the erudition and the authoritativeness of the analysis in Managing Labor Migration in the Twenty-First Century simply dazzle."—Mark J. Miller, University of Delaware and Editor, International Migration Review
"This is an important book. International labor migration is one of the most significant challenges of the 21st century, yet public discourse to date has been dominated by dubious analysis and interest group advocacy. The authors, three exceptionally well informed experts with no axes to grind, provide all of us with a refreshingly insightful and unbiased look at the many faces of migration."—Michael Teitelbaum, Sloan Foundation
"As the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization pointed out, there are deep-seated imbalances in the current workings of the global economy, and some of them could be diminished through a better managed regime that eliminates exploitation of migrants. Managing Labor Migration in the Twenty-first Century sets out suggestions for cooperation to help ensure that labor migration reduces inequalities and contributes to our goal of decent work for all."—Juan Somavia, Director General of the International Labor Office
