International labor migration in the Middle East:  a review of literature and research, 1974-84.
"This article reviews the main trends in the literature and research on international labor migration in the Middle East over the period 1974-84.  This literature, which is characterized as descriptive and judgemental, falls into three broad categories:  first, international and national overviews of migration trends, remittance flows and their macro-economic impact; second, descriptions of government policies designed to organize and regulate labor migration; third, at the community and household scale, comparative studies of migrant and non-migrant behavior in labor-sending countries."
