| Summary: | In regard to migration and remittances
for Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union, the overview
chapter summarizes the main findings that are developed in
much greater detail in later chapters. The core focus of
this report is on documenting the trends of international
migration and remittances in this region since the period of
transition (chapters one and two) and discussing the
determinants of migration in this region (chapter three). A
final chapter (chapter four) reviews the organization of
international migration policy in the region. It details the
nature and types of bilateral migration schemes in place
between Europe and Central Asia (ECA) countries and between
ECA and Western Europe and identifies some of their
limitations. The final section of chapter four suggests some
avenues through which bilateral migration agreements could
be improved. |
