SHOULD BRAIN DRAIN BE BANNED
INTRODUCTION:
The term "brain drain" refers to the movement of highly educated people from their respective countries to other countries looking for green pasture. It refers to the movement of intellectuals like University lecturers and researchers from one national setting to another, ranging from permanent relocation to short-term visits or exchange programs, facilitates the dissemination of knowledge and the broadening of cultural horizons. However, when one nation becomes a substantial net exporter of academic talent, a "brain drain" condition is said to occur. The presence of this condition suggests that the provider nation is at risk of depleting its natural supply of intellectual talent.
Education seems to play a key role influencing rural-urban migration in the developing countries. Numbers of studies of migration in many countries have documented the positive relationship between the educational accomplishment of an individual and his or her interest to migrate from rural to urban areas.
Education also plays a big role in the growing problems of international migration of high level educated individuals from poor countries to the rich ones causing the so called Brain Drain to the poor countries. Scientists, eingineers, academics and physicians who have been trained with scarcely available resources at social cost in their home countries for the benefits and growth of their nation. However, this has simply left helplessness to the concerned institutions and countries of the south that have been loosing thousands of their highly educated workers for the benefits of the rich countries and individuals themselves. The author divides international emigrants roughly into 3 major
CATAGORIES:
1.Emigrants due to lack of employment and low salaries, and thus people are tempted to look for better salaries elsewhere - here, we talk about Economic factors.
2.The second cause of migration is political
