<p> The effects of migration selectivity on the population of the Atlantic region are determined by creating six net migration schedules for six personal variables: age, sex, nativity, education status, mother tongue and marital status. Although the migration schedules were rather complex, selectivity was greatest for young adults and the well educated. The population of the Atlantic region is selective with respect to age and education status. The Atlantic region is losing its young and well educated individuals through the migration process. Furthermore, the Atlantic region had a net inflow of elderly individuals. The effect of the migration selectivity is the loss of young adults, which is interpreted as an important loss of human capital compounding the economic problems of the region. While the increase in elderly population will economically burden the local social and health systems. Using the argument that the migration process is severely hurting the region economically, the Atlantic governments can argue for larger equalization payments to the region.</p> / Thesis / Candidate in Philosophy

In theory of population migration, two major points of view are ¡©economic benefits¡ª and ¡©amenity of life¡ª.

Today, it is a very crucial problem that many European countries are encountering demographic challenges stemming from the population decline and aging and according to many studies and future projections, this demographic trend will reach more critical levels for the next 50 years. The most prominent impact of this demographic situation will be on social security systems that the functioning and sustainability of pension and health care systems will be severely damaged with regard to the rapidly increasing number of elderly and the decline in number of young labor force resulting from the low births rates all over Europe. In this context, labor migration that received significant attention, has risen up to the agenda of Europe to serve as a policy option to mitigate the adverse consequences of demographic challenges. Taking its impetus from the mentioned demographic problem, this thesis aims to analyze the discussions over labor migration as a foreseen policy option to compensate the shortage of labor force in Europe. It also intents to bring relevant data and current debates together to generate a ground in order to open this critical issue to discussion and to elaborate the feasibility of labor migration need for Europe. In this regard, the thesis scrutinizes the reactions of European states regarding their reluctance to open their borders again for &ldquo / mass influx&rdquo / and examines briefly the other preferred and enforced policies that exclude migration option, such as aiming to increase fertility rates, ameliorate social security systems or encourage the native labor force participation. By taking all these into account, this thesis aspires to attract attention to this urgent problem and evaluates the labor migration need in Europe by presenting the relevant reactions and appraisals shaping the migration policies both at the nation state and EU level. Finally, this thesis attempts to contribute to the literature in terms of generating a base for further intensified discussions and studies which constitutes a significant need in the context of interaction between demography and migration in Europe.

In vier ländlichen Gemeinden Sachsens wurden die Bewohner zu ihrem Umzugsverhalten befragt. Mehr als ein Drittel der befragten Zuzügler stammt aus den Nachbargemeinden oder anderen Ortsteilen der eigenen Gemeinde. Knapp die Hälfte kam aus anderen Teilen Sachsens. Nur 14 Prozent zogen von außerhalb des Freistaats zu. Ausschlaggebend für den Zuzug sind zumeist familiäre oder persönliche Gründe. Dazu gehören die Zuzüge zum Lebenspartner oder den Kindern und Familiengründungen. Auch der Wunsch nach einem eigenen Heim wird häufig genannt. Berufliche Gründe für den Zuzug sind selten. Sie spielen dafür als Wegzugsgrund eine große Rolle. Dörfliche Ortsteile werden insbesondere von jungen Familien gewählt, um sich ihren Wunsch nach Wohneigentum zu erfüllen. Menschen, die die Nähe zu Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, ärztlicher Versorgung oder die ÖPNV-Anbindungen suchen, entscheiden sich häufiger für die Kleinstädte. Gefragt wurde auch nach der Zufriedenheit der Zugezogenen mit ihrem neuen Wohnstandort und nach Verbesserungen und Verschlechterungen der Lebensbedingungen. Die Studie legt so Stärken und Schwächen ländlicher Wohnstandorte offen und gibt Hinweise zur Steigerung der Zuzugsattraktivität von ländlichen Städten und Dörfern.
