A migration channels approach to the study of high level manpower movements: a theoretical perspective.
"There can be little doubt that major changes have taken place in recent years in the nature and organisation of skilled manpower moves.  This short article sets out to investigate the ways in which these trends in high level manpower moves might be analysed.  It arises from the discussions of a group of British geographers who commenced investigations on this topic in 1985 under the auspices of a working party of the Institute of British Geographers.  The article commences by briefly considering the significance of skilled international migration before turning to consider a theoretical framework by which such movements might be analysed.  It pays particular attention to the impact of skilled international migration on sub-national units or regions [of developed countries], and tries to link together the findings of the working party on this topic with particular reference to a set of papers presented to a workshop held at the University of Liverpool in March 1989."
