Reflections on emigration aspirations from young, educated people in small Balkan countries: A qualitative analysis of reasons to leave or stay in North Macedonia. Central and Eastern European Migration Review, 11(1), 65-84. https://doi.org/10.54667/ceemr.2022.07 | Journal: | Central and Eastern European Migration Review | Abstract: | For small, low-to-middle-income countries such as North Macedonia, the prospect of young, educated people leaving their place of residence (i.e. emigrating) can have significant negative societal-level effects. Understanding the complexity of the brain-drain phenomenon and its antecedents is critical to developing multi-level (i.e. global, societal, and individual) strategic solutions. A qualitative analysis of several focus-group interviews was used to understand young, educated residents’ reasons either for emigrating or for remaining in North Macedonia. Two overarching themes served to organise the participant-identified drivers for emigration and those opposed to it. Three sub-themes emerged describing the factors for emigration: 1) a lack of professional opportunities, 2) institutional systems, and 3) cultural tightness. Likewise, three sub-themes emerged describing the factors for staying: 1) community, 2) culture and 3) social responsibility. Insights serve to contextualise some of the experiences of young, educated people in small, low-to-middle-income, countries which impact on their emigration decisions. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/24388 | DOI: | 10.54667/ceemr.2022.07 |
