Abstract
Relatively little is known about the long-run behaviour of international labor migrations. One of the biggest concerns in immigration debates relates to the continued pressure on the borders of the wealthy countries. This will decline significantly only if the poor nations manage to provide more high-wage jobs. An earlier model of international labor migration is used to derive additional insights into the growth and decline of labour supply resulting from migration. Particular attention is paid to labour demand growth requirements in a sending country so that out-migration will slow down and eventually stop.-from Author
