Abstract

The central statement of this paper is that the competitiveness of certain countries, regions and counties and their migration are interdependent. The international migration on the labour market can be influenced; and it is important that the economic policy of a region pays more attention to the labour migration processes. It is necessary to develop an employment policy in a way that the international migration receives a strategic role in it, or to develop a transnational migration concept, parallel with the employment policy, which is in close relation with the employment policy concept.

I interpret my views within the historically developed analytical frameworks influenced by the economic paradigms. It means that the various economic theories cannot define either the direction or the extent of the migration processes; nevertheless, they have explanatory power that should be taken into account in the surveys serving as basis for the active economic policies. In my view labour market and the migration influencing it have significant roles in adapting to the new technical-economic paradigms. I hold that the mobility of the highly qualified employees is of key importance.
