LOZANO ASCENCIO, Fernando  y  GANDINI, Luciana. Qualified migration and human develoment in Latin America an the Caribbean. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2011, vol.73, n.4, pp.675-713. ISSN 2594-0651.

This article examines recent trends in qualified migration in Latin America and the Caribbean and analyzes the link between the migration of qualified human resources and human development in the migrants' country of origin. Using a pluralistic theoretical perspective, with information drawn from the Human Development 2009, it provides evidence showing that the interaction between qualified migration and human development is heterogeneous, socially differentiated and complex. Its effects may be positive, negative or neutral.

Palabras llave : qualified migration; human development; Latin America and the Caribbean.
