MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF

developed countries.

In these flows engineers, medical personnel and scientists usually tend to

predominate.

developed countries and by small flows from a larger number of developing

countries.

The migratory trends are stimulated both by the character of national

educational systems by lack and inadequate planning for the training of

students from developing countries, in developed states as well as the

proper utilization of their-skills in their home country etc.
