abstract: 'The collision between economic systems after 1989 led to significant new
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
forms of mobility. East Central Europe became a legally and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
institutionally constructed `buffer zone'' between Western Europe and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CIS, Commonwealth of Independent States-the former USSR. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
opportunities for and costs of migration in the buffer zone were shaped
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by the `double territorial shock'' of the transition:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reinterationalisation and the withdrawal of massive state intervention
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in support of regional convergence. The authors provide a comparative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study of mobility and migration into and out of the buffer zone, through
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
case studies of Ukrainians working in Slovakia, and Slovakians working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Austria. Whereas the Ukrainians are largely confined to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
secondary-labour market, the Slovakians are found in both segments of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the dual labour market. This leads to different implications in respect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of `brain drain'' and `brain waste'' of international skilled-labour
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mobility, as well as amplifying income differences. The overall effect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in both cases is to contribute to the reproduction of economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequalities in the buffer zone, and this is explored through an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis of savings and investment and future employment intentions. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
conclusions are particularly pessimistic in respect of the wage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
differentials required to persuade Ukrainian migrants to return to their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
country of origin.'
