International labor migration through multinational enterprises.
"This research studies international migration of company transferees.  The main purposes are to address how their individual characteristics have influences on their overseas assignment and what kinds of migration patterns are created by the multinational business enterprises. U.S. firms in Taiwan are the primary study focus.  By using both quantitative and qualitative data, the results show that although an overseas appointment is mainly based on individual competence, nationality, ethnicity and gender also play crucial roles.  And multinationals are important channels for sustainable, return and circular migration."
