Stepping Out of the Brain Drain is an important contribution to the intensifying debate about highly skilled migration from developing to developed countries. Addressing the issue from the perspective of Catholic social thought, the authors demonstrate that both the economic and ethical rationales for the teaching's opposition to 'brain drain' have been undermined in recent years and show how the adoption of a less critical policy could provide enhanced opportunities for poor countries to accelerate their economic development.
Michele R. Pistone is professor of law and director of the clinical program at Villanova University. John J. Hoeffner is an attorney and a former editor-in-chief of The Catholic Lawyer. They maintain a website on skilled migration at www.stepoutmigration.com.
