The migration of talent entails both negative and positive effects for the countries of origin; the outcome will depend on whether these countries have the institutional capacities to absorb the potential intangible contributions from their qualified migrants abroad. So, how can the countries of origin develop those institutional capacities to (re)engage with its talented diasporas in order to maximize the benefits of their intangible contributions?
To understand the challenge better and to be able to answer adequately, our dissertation follows the traditional process: first, by undergoing an in-depth review of the relevant literature, then selecting an appropriate analytical framework for our object, and finally, by empirically applying the analytical framework to a case study.
Therefore, part one explores different theoretical disciplines and traditions that focus on three central topics: knowledge, innovation and its embodiments for development, the migration of human capital, and policy change and institutional reform.
From this exploration, in part two, we extract a set of fundamental criteria to approach the challenge from an integrated perspective. Following these criteria, we have assembled an interdisciplinary, multilevel, and nested analytical framework (named Matryoshka, after the nested Russian dolls), composed from micro to macro levels by well-established methodological tools slightly adapted for integration.
In part three, we empirically apply the unified Matryoshka framework to the case study of the engagement relationship between the Institute of Mexicans Abroad and the Mexican qualified diaspora in Europe, to discover whether the institutional and public policy conditions exist to generate and sustain brain circulation, and if needed, to offer improvement suggestions.
